58¢ represents the fact that I turned 58 yrs old this year 😉 The idea was to make a smaller outline of Indiana placed inside the original upside-down outline of Indiana and add a frame around it to cover up the corner dashes. I was upset about the outcome of the leather engraving on my notebook cover, so I decided to try to fix it by making a tattoo coverup. I think the laser might have reflected against the metal. 🙁 The reason (I think) for the extra slashes and dots was due to having the metal button and charm under the laser shield. ARGH!!! and what are those other little slashes on there that weren’t in the art that was imported? First of all, the issue with the art being upside down was totally my fault because I noticed this from the first two tests I did but for some reason, I was so excited to engrave something I’d actually enjoy seeing every day, that I spaced the fact that I needed to flip the art before starting the engraving. With the engraving completed, I raised the laser shield, and… CRAP! The tattoo is upside down. Placed my Midori Traveler’s Notebook cover under the laser shield and tapped the button to do the engraving. I imported it into the LaserPecker app and set the material to leather… This is the simple outline that I found with a quick google. So for a laser tattoo, I thought I’d do a small outline of Indiana since that’s where I was born, raised, and have lived all my life. And the trees on the back represent my love of trees. The horse and buggy stamp is a reminder of the vacation we took this year to Shipshewana, Indiana to Amish country. I only “tattoo” the cover with stamps that mean something to me. Lately, I’ve been customizing the cover by using stamps with ink.
