Challenge Title: Pretty Tattoo
Hostess: Jeanne S (Jeanne)
Keyword: HYCCT1523
Date: October 23, 2015
Welcome to Hope You Can Cling To! We are thrilled you are here with us, and we have some amazingly creative challenges for you for the month - from some alumni of this challenge and some great new hosts as well. Every year I'm in awe of their creativity - if you could just give them a round of virtual applause right now, I'd appreciate it!
Remember that the most important part of this challenges is actually mailing your cards to MD Anderson - this challenge is such a blessing to the patients and their families, and we are incredibly grateful for your generosity throughout the month.
During radiation they mark the spot with a small tattoo. My challenge to you is use any image or phrase on your card that you think would make a pretty tattoo.
Bless you for being a part of this. We appreciate you.

Good morning Jeanne!!! Thank you so much for doing this wonderful challenge for this card drive. Big hugs for all your hard work. This was a great challenge for me as I love watching tattoo shows and always wonder if I were to get a tattoo what would I get....well I have seen the horror shows too for tattoos and that might just be why I don't have a tattoo. My DH just went to Colorado with his cousin last month and he thought it would be funny to post on FB that he found a tattoo parlor. Now if he wants a tattoo, I am not one to stop him but I did suggest he go to one that we have seen their work. LOL!
Jeanne- thanks for the great challenge! I used an orange button to mark the spot, and a dc flower for my design. Added a ink pad swiped background, and a smaller dry embossed panel under my clucky friends. Here's HYCCT1523 Thanks a bunch!

Personally, not into tattoos at all, but I can imagine a motif that is pretty .......a snowflake.....or for medical reasons....a dot. Thanks for the challenge.

I think I would choose the word HOPE and I really like the font on the one I chose today. If not the word HOPE then I would choose a CAT. Maybe a cat named Hope.
