Story time! I was married a while back and got a “ring” tattooed on so i didn’t have to wear an actual ring (because i don’t get along with jewelry) . Well, a few months ago, i found out my x had been running around on me while i was at work. So, long story short, i have a bit of ink on my knuckle i need to work around.

I still like the design and the actual work is great for a small tat, but i’d like to make it blend into a bigger design and not look like a ring tat. I’ve been thinking for weeks of what to do with it but all i can come up with are cheesy words that would play off of the symbol being interpreted as a letter, which would be a bit of a stretch. So i was wondering if anyone had seen any knuckle ink that isn’t just the same old four letter word, or if you guys could come up with a good idea for me to run with.

here is the picture….

all i could think of so far is “LOVE” and forcing the heart to be a V or “FATE” and forcing the cross in the middle to be a T.

The actual design as it is now has our three initials in it (c,t & d). I was thinking, first of all, to have it connect and form a full heart instead of being broken.

throw some ideas at me
