Thank you!

That is "Ya Salaam" .... which means "Ah! Wonderful!", an Arabic
expression of suprise, delight and congratulation .... that I put on
my hand for New Years night parties.

I've been working on incorporating Arabic calligraphy into henna ....
as it was a brilliant part of henna in the medieval period in Spain
and Baghdad .... but it's a bit of a trial for me, because I know no
Arabic whatsoever but for what I can copy out of the Wehr dictionary,
then frantically email Kenzi to see what I've screwed up.
Anyway .... that's the sort of result I get with Castle Art henna,
New Skin and an overnight wrap .... using carrot bags.
