There is so much to be inspired by on Therese's card - the floral die, negative die cut, pink, ombre, the gorgeous soft background behind the die-cut, the layout... I was inspired by the layout and the pinks. I also used the same sentiment but in a different way.
I white-embossed a text stamp onto a panel of watercolor paper and watercolored with distress inks. I then adhered that to the card base. The top panel was die-cut with the Partial Cut Flowers die and added with foam tape. I popped up the petals so you can see the watercolored panel underneath. Here are a couple more photos so you can see the real effect of the flowers.

This is so soft and pretty Karren! love the 'popped' out flowers, how clever. That ombre sentiment and black and white one sets it all off so beautifully too ;) hugs Viv xx
ooh, I adore these partial cut flowers, it's fabulous to be able to see the colour peeking out from behind, what a glorious design!
Gorgeous take on Therese' card, Karren! I love how your pink watercolored panel is peeking through the pop-up flowers and your sentiment couldn't be more perfect...beautiful ombre effect! Love this card!
Gorgeous!! Love the flowers and the hint of pattern underneath, the shading on the sentiment and the bit of black!

This is a fabulous CAS card design and wonderful CASE of Therese's card, Karren! Love the partial die cut flowers and your watercolor panel under it!
Beautiful card Karren, another one of those dies I just need to badly, its only my list. Love how you have done it with the panel behind, loos wonderful.
That's amazing!!! I love the stamping underneath whcih you can only just see behind the partial cut flowers. Such a brilliant CASE! xx
WOW!! Karren, this is a beautiful CASE of Theresa's card, love the way the soft pink water colored paper peeks just enough from under the die cut flowers, to give your design a soft pinkish glow.
Beautiful CASE.
Hugs,

The partial die-cutting is a great way to let the colours "peek" through - really ties in perfectly with the sentiment diecut too!
I just love how your card turned out...I ended up casing the layout more then the colour I guess. I'm not good with casing!
xx Karen
so very pretty, karren... love those pop up flowers!!
I agree with all the comments above. This is an amazing design. The partial cut flowers with the colour peeking through is such a great effect, and I can imagine gives great shadowing in certain lights too. So clever!
