New Puzzle Piece Tattoo

Yesterday, for Mercedes' birthday, we got new matching tattoo pieces of an actual piece from the 5000 piece James Rizzi puzzle we are currently constructing!

We had a last minute change of piece and then a small addition to make it more personal to us. Check it out. Thank you so much Seth from Compass Rose Tattoo in St. Thomas! We could not be happier!

This is the piece we found. We had a different piece picked out but changed our minds the night before. We like this one because its for sure us, the puzzle couple.

M has her outline done, now its time to color it in!

Our friend Laura stopped by the shop to see us getting some ink!

Mercedes went first, now its my turn!

Women are way better at pain than men. M says I had to wear my shades to hide the tears.... whatever, look how bright it is in there!

Thats mine!

Our pieces together at last!

We had to fix up the actual puzzle piece now! Cant wait to place this one! We will save it for last!

We took the night off from puzzling and went out with friends to celebrate her birthday properly. I am one lucky man! 

Here is a picture of the puzzle as we were working on it.

Happy Birthday Mercedes, The Glass of Wine, New Tattoos

Today is Mercedes birthday and to celebrate, we are getting new matching tattoos. Of what you ask? Well, a puzzle piece of course! But wait, it's not just any puzzle piece, its going to be our favorite piece from the James Rizzi Nothing is as pretty as a Rizzi City puzzle! Pretty kick ass huh!

In other news, after about 50,000 pieces, I had my first puzzle accident last night... I spilled a glass of wine and ruined about 25 pieces of the 5000 piece Rizzi puzzle we are getting tattooed today! I was so mad at myself, I know better than to have beverages on the puzzle table. M just said, thank god it was not me! I guess we are going to test the Ravensburger lost/broken piece replacement program.... so sad!

In other news, Mercedes mom bought her a puzzle for her bday! Its so colorful and we cant wait to show this one off!

We are getting this as matching Tattoos for M's 29th Birthday!!! It's a piece from James Rizzi's Nothing is as Pretty as a Rizzi City 5000pc puzzle by Ravensburger

Mercedes Mom got her Color Palette 1000pc from the Master Pieces Colorize series for her bday!
