He said he normally wouldnt do it. But because my daughter was the artist, he did. He then said he was going to send picture in to tattoo magazine...I waited a week until her birthday and then showed her. She was so proud of her work.

Now my other kids were jealous, So I said they could put one on my azz LOL. Not.
I also have a lil devil on my arm with my husbands name over it....

I want many more. to me they represent a time in my life.

Now THAT is an original! Too cute!!! Katie ROCKS!!!

I love tattoos although I don't have any yet!

I *may* be getting one in april when i'm in Boise, IF i like the guys work. My friend says I will,but i'm SUPER picky (which is why I haven't gotten one yet)

What I want:
I have a pawprint of Poppy Sue, my 20 yr old Bichon that we had to have PTS in March of last year We adopted her when I was 8 and she was 5, so she was my best friend. Around the pawprint I want either the latin phrase "finis vitae sed non amoris" which means "the end of life is not the end of love" or "Nunc scio quit sit amor" which means "now I know what love is" or possibly the words "gone to dance w/ the angels written in Italiano.

A tattoo is supposed to mean something special to the person wearing it and I can see that this one will mean a lot to you! You SHOULD be sure of who you want to do it...for sure! Hope you like his work and you can get it done!

Thanks! I hope so too! I like all 3 of the phrases so i may just get the pawprint intially then later on, add the rest!

I have 3 tattoos:
A tribal design on my back
A butterfly on my right front hip bone
and a Lotus flower with a Chinese strength symbol on my right wrist.

They each have a meaning for me so I love them.

I love tattoos also. I would post pics but i havent figured out how to do it yet, Im a bit eerrrrmmmm electronically challanged!
anyway, i have 4 as of today.
1. huge victorian butterfly on my lower back. covered in flowers.
2. orchid on inside rt wrist.
3. kanji for faith on back of neck
4. lg lotus flower under faith symbol.
I am having another piece drawn up right now for my rt shoulder. ts a huge boquet of flowers as if someone laid them on me and they are spilling over my shoulder and down my arm. a few will spill to the front also. very femminine and soft.
my daughter has 7 and my son has 1 and my step dtr has 9 and my hubby has a 1/2 sleeve of the picture of calvary on his arm. one of the coolest tats i have ever seen. hes getting the nativity on his other arm. so he will have the birth and death.

I got my first tattoo this last summer....I went to Rock fest in Cadot Wisconsin to see "Kiss" (yes thats right people...I saw Kiss live) and started drinking at 8 in the morning and my friend and I turned 40 in the last year so we decided to get our first tats together....in a dusty old field in a tent and it turned out that the girl who gave me my first tatoo was only 16. I got a butterfly and my right ankle and it hurt like the dickens even after drinking for several hours...but its really cute, never did get an infection and it really impressed my children....my mom thought I was nuts however....(I think it even turned on my husband a little)....

I bet it is pretty! And only 16...wow! I think the one I got on my foot Saturday is infected...my foot is really swollen and sore still today...and I don't think it is healing properly...I am worried about it...hope I don't lose it or have to have it done over again.

So I have a small Tribal on my Breast, a 'T' on my upper Arm, 2 Butterflies on my Hip and Rib and a chinese Symbol on my Ankle and a Butterfly/Tribal on my foot ....... LOL

There all small and cute and I can cover all of them at all times ..... that is important to me ....

I have 3.. 2 cows (3rd cow is on its way) represents my love of cows and myself and my oldest son.. I finally just recently found the 3rd cow to represent my little man.. I also have a fairy that was hand drawn that represented my wings to fly in other words after I got this tat i had the strength and courage to leave my ex husband.. Its funny everytime I have to deal w/ him my tat breaks out in little bumps and go away as soon as he does LOL.. its an omen..

I'll post my mooer's later..

I have one on the top of my foot that I thought would be a lot worse than it actually was! The tattoo guy told me the same thing..I wouldn't sweat it!

I got one on my shoulder 27 years ago and don't really remember it...had it covered over about 3 weeks ago and that was bad...but my foot was the worst by far...I thought about telling him to stop...at half a ladybug! But half a ladybug was better than no ladybug at all! The right half was on a bonier part of the foot and was MUCH worse...at first it felt like he was just burning me but it got intense. I would not say don't get one on your foot I would say start small! And pain is different for everyone. But the tat will be worth it all I am sure...it is forever art! and be prepared to not wear any closed shoes for about 3 weeks!!!
