Mum's ink anklet - Refining

 Part 1 - initial ideas
At long last we managed to hit a sweet spot with this one. Failing with the complex anatomy of mums favourite flower alstonomocalicalia? i resorted to my personal favourite, don't-forget-mes.
First idea was a literal anklet, chain, and we both love this idea. Then i came up with a more natural design below.
Both are in the development process and two polished outcomes will come from this, then its just a matter of deciding which of the two is best!
Still working on the flower design itself.

"I like this. But then I liked the other one too. The forget-me-nots idea is a brilliant one. Green or black, both are good. Spot on! Not sure about the shape of the little green leaves though, one of them looks almost penis shaped, pardon my language!"

Both versions with updated forgetful-nots

made a doxen versions of this now, heres the latest 2 desgins. More elaborate with 2 sizes and dynamic composition. Then combining the two ideas with leafs. :)

still going to refine the vine idea too so its not over yet haha! putting all other work down today, my heart is just set on this  right now

 Below: This chain idea with metal rings between the flowers has been discarded... it looks a mess and with the tattoo its unlikely to look elegant at all working with the ink and small scale. One cock up and black might tarnish the blue?

And finally the final vine. With or without the knots?
