Brisbane Ink

Shan and I will both be sporting new ink this time next week. We just had a catch up with the tattooist who unveiled Shan's design and she's totally in love with it. The floral arrangement will cover her right arm from shoulder to elbow with a mix of dark and pastel colours. It's going to look awesome but hurt like a mo-fo. She even joked with Tim about how much the inside of her arm is going to hurt and he just smiled and nodded. We like that he's keeping it real.

Mine will only take about half an hour but he's booked Shan in for six hours straight. Plus a follow up session in case he can't finish it in one day. I'm taking the whole day off to hold her hand and hopefully keep her mind off it as much as I can. It's gonna suck to see her in so much pain but it's going to look awesome when it's done.

7 sleeps and counting.

  1. That's awesome! Holly just had her half sleeve done and that took 3 sittings to finish. It's a koi fish with a bunch of stuff around it. It's beautiful but she was in a lot of pain and almost passed out a couple time each sitting. Don't let that discourage you... the end result is worth it! Can't wait to see pictures.

  2. "Almost passed out?"... Holy moly! I hope I don't have to do three sittings - eek!
    We will definitely post pics, but only the ones where I'm conscious and not crying ha!
