I originally got the lyrics done by itself for my 19th birthday. It's from the song Seize The Day by one of my favorite bands, Avenged Sevenfold. That part was done by Jak at BPU & Tattoo in Anchorage, AK.
The skull, roses, and filigree came 6 months later and were done by Jake at BPU. I felt that the lyrics alone were way too plain so I designed something to go around it. He re-drew it and made it ten times better into this :)
