Ideas for tattoo for daughter?

Originally what I had thought of doing was her hand print with her name and birthday. But that will be a lot of black and I am afraid over time it won%26#039;t look so hot. I want something that I can add to as we have more kids. Another thought I had was her birth flower (lily of the valley). But it%26#039;s white, and also a flower is kinda girly if we have a boy next. I already have a tattoo on my right ankle, lower back, left shoulder, and right hip. I thought about right shoulder but I just can%26#039;t decide. I%26#039;d love some suggestions. Her name is Allison Paige. Not sure if I%26#039;m going to use both name or just Allison. Thanks!

you don%26#039;t have to do the hand print in black. you could do it in red or pink or purple. i love the idea of hand print and foot print tattoos for your kids.
Reply:I%26#039;ve been thinking about this a lot, I don%26#039;t have kids but eventually I want some and I was thinking about what kind of tattoo I would get for em, I would do their birth butterflys, march is a monarch and every month has a different butterfly, it%26#039;s still kind of girly. My best friend just had this awsome piece done for her kids, it%26#039;s a stick mom and two stick kids on either side of the mom with her kids names next to their stick people, it turned out amazing.
Reply:i think it would look nice if you get like a footprint down your side.. and add more footprints as you get more kids.
Reply:Maybe you could do her birthstone and below it, put her name. ;) then u can just add on when you have more kids..
Reply:I think it would be neat for you to have her name running up/down your spine, with a small icon of her birth flower next to it. That leaves plenty of room for future childrens%26#039; names, but won%26#039;t look odd without other names. It could look something like this (I picture it in a nice script:

Edit: As for your second idea, I think it would be really neat to have a large branching tree symbolizing you and your husband, and surrounding the tree could be the birthflower of each child. This would probably work best on your lower back.
Reply:If you like the hand print idea dont give up on it yet. Take your idea to the artist you are gonna have do it, and explain it to him. Tell him you do not want it to be really black. he will do some sketches and then show them to you. Maybe you might want to get the palm of her and instead of the hand print. Or they can shade the hand print so it appears to be pressed into your skin, like if it were done in wet plaster. I think this last idea woud work well as it would be just the out line and then the fine shading that would look natural. Hope this helps. good luck and Good health to you and yours.
