I have two fabulous entries so far.
They are automatic winners, unless you would like to challenge them.
If you do wish to challenge them for first or second place, or indeed claim third place please do.

This contest is not about whether I like your tattoo more than someone else's. Art is a very subjective form of expression, and wearing it on your body as a part of you is highly personal.
It is this personal story that I would love to hear about.
Whether incredibly meaningful, or incredibly regretful, once inked tattoos are with us forever.
Whether born of heart felt sentiment and planned, or a lost weekend and an impulsive decision, the story of how you came to be tattooed I believe remains a part of the work.
Here are the guidelines
Take a current photo of your tattoo
To verify your entry, display a sheet of paper with “Tattoo Story Contest Entry” written on it next to the tattoo photo incuded in your story. (Again, G rated only)
One entry per week. Save the others for another week.
Detail the story behind your tattoo. The stories are as diverse as the art themselves.
Include Tattoo Story Contest Entry in the title, along with whatever else you want to call it.
Post the verified photo within the story.
All entries must be a post tagged #tattoostorycontest #contest #tattoo
Deadline for entry is Midnight Saturday CST (GMT -5)
All SBD & Steem generated from this post will be distributed as prizes to the 1st, 2nd & 3rd places.
If you would like to RESTEEM the competition post to help generate future interest, I would be most grateful. It is not a condition of entry, and will not influence decisions regarding winners.
