Timeless Tuesday #243 - Fussy Cutting Fun

Hello all, hope you are enjoying this brisk weekend. The challenge at Flourishes Timeless Tuesday this week is to cut an image with a detailed edge. I love to fussy cut and usually cut right up to the stamped edge but for this image I left a bit of white since there were some tiny detailed areas. I didn't pop up the image on this card, just the birthday sentiment since I am trying to make my cards a little flatter for mailing. I used a sketch from Pals Paper Arts #177 and the colour palette at Colour Throwdown #265 this week.




Supplies:
Stamps - Garden Gate, Tag Lines (Flourishes)
Paper - Gathering DP (Authentique), Navy CS (Bazzill), Neena Solar White
Ink - Memento Tuxedo Black, Desert Sand, Sorbet (for inside) (CTMH), Copics - R000, 01, 02, 14, BG10, 72, 75, E41, 42, 43, 44
Other - Birthday Trio Die (PTI), pearls (CTMH), corner rounder, 3D foam
