| Voodoo Tattoo Studio's Monthly Newsletter, Cool Links & Client Bill of Rights
Spring is growing nearer, Voodoo Fans! Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, an opportunity to warm up our hearts, our lips, our naughty parts... This is the time of year to look forward, friends. Winter will soon give way to Spring, despite any contradictory reports by a certain Pennsylvanian groundhog... Allow yourself to dream, to drift away into the promise of warm breezes and blooming landscapes. Imagine leaving that winter coat behind... Spring can't arrive soon enough! This month you will find new photos in both Lex's and Michelle's portfolio pages. Below I've included Corey's "Holy Crap" tattoo, designed and tattooed by Michelle. Thank you Corey, for all the laughs!
I'll be adding a bunch of new information to our Cool Links/Resources/For Your Charitable Nature sections (below). Please! feel free to email any suggestions to voodootattoostudio@hotmail.com. We appreciate your input! Until next month my Voodoo Valentines, enjoy the holiday of love! Hoping to see all of you soon! XOXO, Suzie ________________________________________________________________________________________ COOL LINKS: Resources & Amusement...
