Tattoo idea - What do y'all think?

[EllieAndBlu]

This is the design in Ellie's bowl...  what do y'all think of this as a tattoo? Does it need somthing else?

I have been wanting to get a dog-related tattoo for a long time...

Bring on the opinions/suggestions/advice...... please.

Thanks!

[EllieAndBlu]

Yeah Julie I was thinking the same thing... that it looked like the "mom" tattoos... I was thinking of making it look more like that and put "Dog" in it.... but I like the idea of knicknames, initials, etc... too.

Thanks for the input.

I think its adorable, Rachel!  It also looks like it would be a good design to add onto, if you wanted to at some point.  I have a few tattoos and my very favorite is one that started with a very simple symbol that has been added to twice, and probably will be added to again at some point. 

Oh, and you know we're going to need pics once you get it done!!!   

Hmmmm.... I never thought about being able to add onto it... what a great idea... my other tattoo is pretty detailed so it was a one-time deal.. I am so going to keep your idea tucked in the back of my mind.... you are a genius Jenn!

Needs pawprints!  Inside the heart, with each of your babies' initials or names in each.

I love it.....wish I had the guts to get one. lol

I love it and everyone has already given you some great suggestions.  Can't wait to see pics of it.

i think thats super cute. i found a nice design. its a tribal image of some sort, with a paw print in the middle. i really like it for say, a wrist tattoo. OH GOD stop me. i have 7 already (At age 21...) and i have about 8 more planned grrr. lol.

I like the design but you should definitely try to incorporate the dogs name/names or at least their initials.

[EllieAndBlu]

So cute!!  So, where is it going?!?!   

I am putting on the inside of my arm (between elbow and wrist)... which brings me to my next dilema... which way should the top of the heart face? 

Any ideas?

p.s. thanks for all the input.... y'all ROCK!
 

[EllieAndBlu]

If you are going to put names or initials on it the top of the heart should face your elbow, IMHO. I only have one tat right now, and am planning a second when I reach my goal wiehgt on my current diet. Yeah great reward , stick me with needles, LOL

Stella, it's funny you say that about tattoo and weight... my other tattoo is on my ankle so it wouldn't be affected by weight... and I've decided to put this one on my inner lower arm cause weight loss won't distort it (too much)..... oh being girls can be such a hassle at times....lol

I like that tattoo idea!!  Placement is the hardest thing to decide, I have one on each ankle because I knew if I would have put them anywhere else they would get distorted!! hahahaha    Good luck, I can't wait to see pics of it when it's finished!

lol reading this post, and the "weight distorting" hahaha I have a spider tattooed on my chest and i gained some weight and the legs on one side are longer now. it doesnt look bad. and its not THAT noticeable, but... its just funny when u think about it.
i knew a girl who got a tattoo below her belly button and she got pregnant and it stretched so bad. it looks terrible now. And another girl who used to be a fair size, who is now balimic or something like that, anyways, u cant even tell what her tats are !!!
so, yep good thing to think about while tattooing, is gaining/loosing weight in the areas u are getting it tattooed in

I like the paw prints in the middle idea.  My next tat is going to be paw(s) prints on the top of my foot.  I can't decide if I want one or a few going across the top!

I might be getting it this weekend (fingers crossed)...
a little Xmas present to myself
