I used the second image from the beautiful Captivate (31-050) stamp set (also from the new release). I stamped the image in black ink and clear heat embossed before watercolouring with my Zigs. I loved watercolouring this image, combining orange and pink to create two-toned flowers. :)
I fussy-cut the bottom of the image so that the leaves and lower bloom go over the edge of the octagon frame. I finished with a simple sentiment (Super Day), stamped in black and heat embossed with clear.
I'm giving this card to my Mom for Mother's Day, which is just a few weeks away in Canada. :)

I love the frame the first time you used it Loll, and I'm loving this card with it too...I think I might NEED it!! Your flowers are so pretty in the pink & orange, and I love how you cut the edge of the bottom flower and leaf so it hangs over the frame...soooo pretty!! Lovely, lovely card my friend and your mom will love it!! Hugs. :0)
Loll, your mama is going to love this - and so do I! Such bright and cheerful blooms in your gorgeous octagonal 'window' frame and the debossed portion is exquisite, too!
Please send along happy Mother's Day wishes from me to your mum!

What a great idea to have the frame and the embossed bottom half too, and remember your last card with just the frame and the other image, beautiful too, and the flowers are gorgeous in pink and orange and with the black embossed line work really makes them pop..a lovely black embossed sentiment too. I'm sure your Mom will love it! x
This is very pretty and I love the embossing!
Love the debossing so much and the way your pretty little flowers dangle over the edge of the octagon! This is a beautiful card, Loll and I think your mom will treasure it!
Very pretty, Loll, and those new dies are definitely customizable! I went to buy the die a couple of days ago and they were already gone -- boohoo! I love your sweet octagon window with the flowers flowing out
So pretty Loll, love how you've fussy cut those leaves to allow them to drape over the edge. Your mum will love it too! :)
WOW - this is stunning Loll - love the wee flowers spilling over the edge, but that die and embossing combo really makes the card a winner!
Blessings

Not only is your painting spot on but your framing always finished off your work beautifully! Thanks for the links too- you just enabled me again (grin).
So pretty, Loll. Love it.
Ohhh, this is so beautiful! You know I'm a PB fan as well as a Loll fan. Every bit of this is so lovely. Your watercoloring is divine! It's nice how the frame die works. Just a touch of texture to add interest. Your Mom will be enchanted! I stamped this set yesterday for coloring soonish, but I'm finishing up a few loose ends first. Always something. Hope you're doing okay with the move.
The frame and debossed panel add so much texture to your card, Loll, and those flowers flowing down are so pretty. Wonderful card!
I love these bright and beautiful flowers, Lolly! And the die makes such wonderful texture and interest!
Aahhh..such beautiful and unique flowers, Lolly:-) Thank you so much for sharing. Love and big Hugs!!! Miss you...Nancy
You really can't beat the versatility of these awesome dies and you show them to their best advantage, Lolly! This is really beautiful! Thank you for playing with embossing this week!📌 Hugs, Dolly
A really beautiful card, love the die and embossing too. x
That lovely hexagon die works perfectly with your gorgeous floral spray... a fabulous card Loll, hugs Robyn
Such a beautiful card! I love all the texture and gorgeous blooms! Your Mom is sure to love it!
Your flowers create a beautiful colorful bouquet. It's a great idea to add a flower and leaves to the window stamped inside for an extra dimension.
