Challenge #1 - Your First Tattoo

Every month, I will do a challenge for you to scrap about your tattoos. But I will also have a second challenge for those of you who dont have tattoos but either wanted them, not never want them. Becuase scrapbooking is about recording your life, your thoughts and your opinions. This is information that maybe your grandkids would love to know about you.

so for the Tattoo'd
What was your first tattoo ?
what did it mean to you?
how long did it take to pluck up the courage to get it done ?
do you regret it ?
would you change it - did it change you?
have you got it covered up or have you had it redone ?

For the un-inked:

Would you like a tattoo ?
What sort of tattoo would you like ?
what sort of tattoo's do you not like ?
whats stopping you from getting a tattoo ?
if you dont like tattoo's why not ?
What do tattoo's signify to you about a person ?

Here is mine: "First" Anam_040707_first

Hi there! I found your cool blog from SIS. I don't personally have a tattoo, but I love them all the same. My dh has a few and I have draw some for him and friends. I just put a set of tattoo lettering stamps in my store. You can see them on my blog here http://saraberry.typepad.com/my_weblog/2007/08/sunglasses-at-n.html

I found your blog from SIS and love it. I am going to have to make a layout on my tattoo. In the meantime here is a layout I did a couple of weeks about my husbands tattoo that is in progress. When it is complete I plan of doing another one that explains it's significance.

Im gonna have to have a go at this, but i think its going to have to wait until tomorrow!

I think Jason Gaylor has some cool tattoo brushes as well - or it was from design fruit - can't remember exactly where I downloaded from, but it was at least a chain from his blog, and they were free!

Great challenge :D Loved it :)

omgosh, I haven't shown anyone my first tattoo, it is so bad! Its a tinkerbell on the small of my back that some guy did in his kitchen when I was 18. Brian has since tried to fix it, but there wasnt much that could have been done :)

Excellent- a celebration of skin art! Love my tatts so will def need to have a go at this challenge!

I didn't even see this, girl!!! I'm on it!!! :)

Really loved this challenge so here's my effort. I usually have my tattoos covered up with clothes and tend to forget about them, so it's great to have a paper dedication to them!

What is it all about ?

  • I decided to start this blog to give both Tattoo'd scrapbookers a place to show off and for people who have tattoos to get interested in scrapbooking.
  • I also want to show off scrapbooking product that are tattoo inspired so we are all inspired to create.
  • Every week on a Saturday, I will be posting information about scrapbooking products that relate to tattoos, or posting layouts that are tattoo based.
  • Once a month, I will also be putting forward ideas to get you creating art about your tattoos.
  • I am all about showing off the tattoo's people have becuase often we are still on the fringes of the general scrapbooking circles. I would love to showcase other people's tattoos - whether you are a scrapbooker or not - this blog is to share layouts about tattoo's and hopefully get more tattoo'd people into scrapbooking aswell.
  • If you are interested in joining in and sharing your layouts, please comment and i will be in touch.
