I asked her if she had prayed about it, because I know that she is a real prayer warrior. She said that she had and that she felt like this was something personal between her and Jesus; that it is a constant reminder to her of who He is. Hard to argue with that!

Ashley is a great young lady and i can certainly attest to what you have said.
There is no scripture against the modern use of tattoos. Personally, I do think it should be an issue of moderation as far as society goes. Many professionals frown on the over abundance of tattoos that can be seen as far as a "marketing" aspect goes.
To use the "defiling the temple" scripture here (as was used in one of the "sermon links" from a church web-site earlier in this thread) is just wrong when the same people who use this against tattoos eat at McDonald's and drink Soda Pop (according to the pic of the pastor LOL). Fast food and high colesterol is more "defiling" and creates many more health risks than a tattoo ever thought about....
