give me a visual western design tattoo with this saying “i didn’t come from much but I came from them, and that was enough.” in a font that looks western to match the rest with the 4 different hearts my grandpa and grandma and mom and dad drew i don’t want the decorations to be altogether in the one spot and I don’t want them to look animated so try and spread them out and use better ones and make it more realistic and horizontal not vertical like it is
