Hello, yellow. :)
I have the cutest Pirate Friday in the whole world to share with you!
It may be a secret to you, cuz I don't think I've shared yet, but I've been contemplating getting a seriously big nautical inspired tattoo/half-sleeve sometime in the (hopefully very near) future. It's been years since I've gotten some new ink, after a stretch of getting a bunch of lil ones in a short window, so I'm harsh jonesing for one & have been humming and hawing and thinking of exactly what I want for this one for a while, now. It's a big commitment,
so it requires a lot more pre-thought than the little guys, of course. :)
Anyhoo - in the midst of looking for ideas, I randomly stumbled across the sweetest still-work-in-progress Tattooed Sailors from My Paper Crane
(I can't seem to link directly to the post, so just scroll down the blog!). Omg.
I've since been stalking her shop to see when I can nab one for my own...he he.
You can read the description of what they will be, once printed, right here.
Paper? Tattoos? Embroidery? Dolls? Oh my.
All the best things all in one thing, I think.
And then on the same day, I stumbled upon these fab also-tattooed Tattooed Man & Ladies by the always genius Emily Martin of The Black Apple, here.
I love him to bits - specially his chest piece/ship. Yesss. :)
This tatt-covered lady also stole my heart, big time, too.
Officially, I see this as a sign. :)
I have to start looking for the ideal tattoo artist in town for my piece - know any talented tatt artists here in Vancouver? Now, to build the fund up, too - I have to start saving for school, so I'm supposed to stop splurging - will have to get crafty with that. :) And don't worry, reading moms - it will be lovely.
Any of these tattooed lovelies steal your heart?
And please do share any other tattooed softie finds! I love em!!
