What is tattoo Tuesday about this week?

April 9, 2013

This week is a photo essay on stork tattoos.  I decided to stay away from the baby-storky tattoos and go for those that are more realistic ones.  Some of these may actually be cranes – but, close enough.

I mentioned earlier that I am knitting hats for the newborns at the county hospital.  Here are some of the latest creations being shown by world-class models.

Below, Murphy models a snappy white cloche with a garnet bow embellishment.

Not new, but I think it is funny.  I keep checking Sam’s paws because he is evolving.

Bonus:  Cmdr. Samuel Vimes and his electronic devices.

After several days of temps in the unseasonably high 60s, it is snowing again with a 40 degree drop in temperature overnight.

What’s new on tattoo Tuesday?

January 8, 2013

These are baking-related tattoos – from simple line art to the ornate.  Cupcakes seem to be very popular as tattoos as well as bakery items.  I am impressed by the detail in the cake decorator’s tattoo and the simplicity of the whisk, finishing up with the exuberant, “Bake, Rattle and Roll!”
