I like to have a general idea of the tattoo and then give the artist the ability to translate it how they want for the final tattoo.

Learn MoreI lost the best dog ever, Duke. I found him at the animal control alone and so very sweet. He was quiet, never ruined anything in the house, and he loved my kids. Couldn't have asked for a better dog. Truly lost half of my heart when he passed away. I won't ever forget him. So I used a nose print I had gotten from him and made a memorial piece on my arm/ hand. Placing the nose print on the spot he would nudge with his nose when he wanted me to pet him.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?There are beautiful things I hold in this heart of mine! I want my outsides to match my insides. People judge others so quickly based on appearance, if they see my friend's artwork on me, hopefully they'd know that although life has been rough, there is beauty in it. There's hope. God is good.
What would you do with the $25,000?Savings accounts for both my children, and then buy an RV and we can go where our hearts lead us. My girls are my whole world and I wouldn't give back one second of my life with them. It's us against the world. No matter what.
