Help Needed to Find Butterfly Tattoo Ideas

Hubby is coming around and will help me select a butterfly for my tattoo. He would like it to be more than one color. We have decided on Blue, Purple, and Yellow. Now comes the hard part. I am having problems finding one that suits me. If you find one that you think I should contemplate, post a picture. Thank you!

Well now you have support and that is good. Have you decided upon a butterfly yet? I love purple. I love all shades of purple. Be sure to post a photo when you get it done. Does it hurt when you get a tattoo? I am just curious. Does it burn for a few days or any discomfort at all. It seems to me that it would have to be painful for a day or so.

My favorite color is purple and all the shades of it too! My sister tells me that it does cause discomfort. She said it is like a scraped knee. I will keep you posted as to what my take on it is.

That is a pretty butterfly! :D I like all of the bright colors. I think that would be very pretty, as long as the colors didn't fade! :)

butterfly tattoo - the art of body art is taking this butterfly to a shoulder or buttock or even thigh. The use of inks in marking the body is old and one that has been kept in mainstream for a long time.
Here is one that comes up from googling tattoo with your colors mentioned. I hope that the colors of any tattoo you select will stay for long time and not fade as so many do. I am proud that you are going to do this and that hubby has decided to join you in an activity of your growing spirit. Good luck and safe tattooing.

Man Elusive, I went looking but I just can't seem to find anything that I would like. But I do have something to add to your quest, I am looking for a moose. Yep, I want a moose tatoo, but I want it to be pretty, I am a girl. If anyone come's across one, send it my way.

How do you want it to look, like what kind of style? (realistic, traditional, etc) I have a lot of tattoo pictures saved on my computer, including a few of butterflies. They are mostly in a traditional style, but I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for. If you want me to show you those just let me know. You can also check out http://www.bmeink.com if you haven't already. They have a ton of butterly tattoo pictures. Also, the tattoo shop should have a ton of flash that you could look at.

I found some amazing butterfly pictures by doing a search, Elusive. There they were in all their glory-all colors and sizes. I'm a butterfly fanatic too. I hope you will find what you are looking for. Or better still, you might be able to create one of your own styling if you draw.

I am really glad that your hubby has come around! Yay! :D And, I agree with him! I think that you should have a butterfly that has more than one color. So, that it stands out a little more and looks pretty! haha Blue, purple, and yellow! Three beautiful colors! I think that this one is really nice! I hope that this helps! :D
