Cherokee Prayer Blessing
May the Warm Winds of Heaven
Blow softly upon your house.
May the Great Spirit
Bless all who enter there.
May your Mocassins
Make happy tracks
in many snows,
and may the Rainbow
Always touch your shoulder.

Purple Cake Day
Purple Cake Day is an idea conceived by Nelsonian, Emily Sanson-Rejouis to celebrate the spirit of her daughters, Kofie-Jade (5) and Zenzie (3), who were lost with their father, Emily’s husband Emmanuel, in the Haiti earthquake in January 2010.
Immediately following the earthquake, Emily established the Kenbe La Foundation (‘Kenbe La’ means “Never Give Up” in Haitian Creole), a registered charitable trust, to provide educational opportunities for children in need. The Foundation has since established Purple Cake Day as a specific day to celebrate and connect children from around the world.
Funds raised by the Foundation in 2010 and 2011, including those raised by Purple Cake Day, are going towards the Foundation’s current project of building a school in Leogane Province, Haiti, one of the regions most severely affected by the earthquake.
The Kenbe La Foundation has already provided and coordinated direct support to the Source of Hope School in Tom Gato Community, Leogane. The school supporting 120 primary level students with 5 teachers was completely destroyed in the quake.
The Kenbe La Foundation has arranged educational resources, clothes, ShelterBox tents for temporary classrooms and teachers salaries. To read more about Emily’s story and the Foundation go to http://www.kenbelafoundation.org

Girl Tattoos – How to Find the Right Design For You
If shows such as Miami Ink and L.A. Ink show us anything, it’s that tattoos are not some passing fad. What once was a form of rebellion is now seen by many as an outward extension of who they are. Women today are becoming increasingly tattooed and searches on the net for girl tattoos have skyrocketed.What drives a woman to get a tattoo? The most heard reason in studios is that they just broke up with someone. Some get their first ink after a divorce or other major change in their life such as losing a loved one, childbirth, marriage or even religion (think cross tattoos or The Virgin Mary). This is a practice that dates back thousands of years.
What are women having done tattoo-wise? The most popular are typically flowers, tribal designs, butterflies, fairies and cartoons. These tattoos are also starting to get larger and more customized. There was a time when women usually “hid” something very small on their shoulder or ankle. Today popular spots include the small of the back, arms legs and even chests. Although, the ankle and shoulder are still tremendously popular locations…the tattoos are just larger. Typically being more stylish that men, women are more concerned about tattoos they want and where on their body to put it. Part of the tattoo artist’s job is to help the client select a design or possible location that will accentuate a certain part or shape of the body.
Women also seem to be better than men when actually getting tattooed. Men like to think they are tough can take the pain. But when the needle hits their skin they pass out in the chair. Women, on the other hand anticipate the pain and will have a higher tolerance.
Have you been searching the internet looking for tattoo designs, a tattoo finder or more particularly girl tattoo art? Finding the right design can be downright exhausting. People with tattoos will tell you how long it takes to choose the right one. After all, they last forever and shouldn’t be rushed. It could take 20-30 hours to find the right tattoo design, so don’t get a tattoo on a whim or go with cute and trendy. A feminine tattoo should be unique and should speak about who you are and not copied from someone else.

One of the nice things about dragon tattoos with no color at all is that it is unisex; both men and women can use the design. However, just adding a little bit of color to it, maybe just to outline it would make a huge difference in the appearance and the beauty of the tattoo.One of these designs is a blue dragon in an upright flying position, with a green underside and orange flames all around it. When thinking about whether or not the tattoo is best for males or females, it is really all about the color scheme. With the blue dragon, this is mostly for men because it is fierce and powerful. If the tattoo were different shades of pink than quite obviously no man would be caught dead with that design. It is for a woman to have.
My family has a special phrase that I've had translated into Chinese (Always & Forever). I'm going to get my first tatoo and require a custom design as I haven't seen anything so far that's quite right... I'd like some scrollwork intertwined, maybe with a dragonfly
New Tattoo Placement for Women
A tattoo is more an accessory to women than men and women's clothing designs have extreme variables that could be well accessorized by a it or detracted from. It is this reason a woman should carefully give thought to the placement of it.
An example of such a placement is the sporting of a large shoulder tattoo. It would look great with a halter or tube top but when you place a bare shoulder sporting the same tattoo with your body in an elaborate evening gown the entire image changes. Tattoo placement, size, ink color and design should be well thought out in both positive and negatives of your current lifestyle and that of your future lifestyle.
Popular tattoo designs for women are: stars, moon crescents, moon and stars combined, nautical stars, shooting stars, zodiac signs, floral designs, hearts, Script designs, symbols, script in foreign language, lips, Celtic knot, ribbon, rainbows', crosses, a tear drop for a passed love one, harps, birds (particularly Swallows and humming birds) and tribal art from a palate of color. Refrain from name scripts unless they are a parent or child as anyone else's name is subject to change. Popular tattoo designs can be used alone or in combination which means there is no cap on the possibilities.
Placement of Angel Tattoos
Placement of Angel TattoosThe most common place to get angel tattoos is on the upper arm or chest for guys and on the shoulder or abdomen for females. Although it is not uncommon to see angel tattoos on the inner wrist or even on the foot!
Angel tattoo wings are another common form of tattoo. They can be tattooed full size on the back in black ink and can look very impressive.
Overall angels symbolize protection and as such are a common reason a lot of people get angel tattoos. Some people depict deceased family or friends as guardian angels in their tattoos as a way to immortalize them or keep the close to their heart.
