101 things 1001 days: #29 Get heart/pen tattoo

| by Bel | 11.19am NZ time |

This, my fourth tattoo, was done by Capilli at Sacred Tattoo in Auckland:


My attempt at taking a photo of my own back, which doesn't show the new tattoo at all:


A slightly more helpful photo, also showing part of my swallows and banner tattoo done by Jane at Chapel Tattoo in Melbourne:


Here is the design in its original incarnation:



It is based on a traditional Mexican fortune telling card, and the Bic biro.

Completed on July 2nd, with 898 days left of my Day Zero Project
