Tattoo update!
I am so happy with how it looks - of course, I have to tell you, it is SORE right now! There will still be a few hours' work left (adding colours and a couple more flowers) but I love that it doesn't look unfinished at this stage. These photos aren't terrifically clear as they were taken with my phone - by myself - and it's hard to get the back of your arm without help, lol! The line of text is a lyric from "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," and it reads "With every mistake...we must surely be learning."

I love the green and pink colors together and the image is super cute. Another great card!
ReplyDeleteThis card is so cute! The triple bow with coloured bells is terrific. You are one brave lady getting a tattoo that big. It really is stunning!!
ReplyDeleteLove the jingle bells on your card, Jessi. So cute! Your tattoo is a big one, and very elegant. I like the verse you chose from the song. :)
ReplyDeleteOuch, ouch..your tattoo looks so painful...i am so glad it's not something i want to do. Gives me the goosebumps. I am loving the card colors..they are perfect for dreary days..they are happy colors!
ReplyDeleteI am definitely in the "ouch" category looking at your tattoo. But it is definitely going to be awesome! And a perfect quote. ;)
ReplyDeleteAlso awesome... this card! Great colouring and I do love those little jingle bells.
Aww what a cute card!! I love the pattern paper you used!! The tattoo is looking good!
ReplyDeleteCute card! What an adorable image and your coloring is wonderful! Love the colored jingle bells and non-traditional Christmas colors! Your tattoo is going to be gorgeous! Oh, but it does look painful!
ReplyDeleteVery cute card Jessi, I love those fun bright colours and that adorable image. Your tattoo is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteDoes it hurt? You are so brave, Jessi!
ReplyDeleteCute card and beautiful colouring!
Oh, stop it, how adorable is that card?!! Now about the tattoo, you, my friend, have a very high threshold for pain! I'm glad you are happy with how it is turning out!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteSuper fun card Jessi, and my your arm looks sore, hope it's all finished and looking fantastic real soon!
ReplyDeleteDarling card--love the jingle bells! Gotta figure out how to use bells on some cards--several packages unused--not good--LOL!
ReplyDeleteOuch ouch ouch..... ooooh it does look sore. This work of art doesn't compare to what you had done before. What were you thinking, girl?! Bet you're aching (!) for summer to come 'round to show it to the word.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I love the card too. So bright and cheerful I'll have a go this week...before it's too late...again!
hugs, Asha - Sunny Summer Crafts

These are such fun papers and such a fun image!! Love this!!
ReplyDeleteI still just say "Ouch!!!!!"
Yeah, I bet that tattoo hurts like heck. I am glad you are happy with how it looks so far. Are you going to have a sleeve inked up?
ReplyDeleteTotally loving the bright and bold colors and the multiple bows!
ReplyDeleteAnd your tattoo is stunning! I can't wait to see the finished product - it's going to be phenomenal. And I love the quote (although sometimes I wonder if I ever learn anything from my stupid mistakes!!)
