I loved the way the flower turned out. I have been a bit intimidated by this stamp, not really knowing what to do with it, but this was an easy technique. I heat embossed the dahlia using White Embossing Powder, then used a sponge dauber with So Saffron, Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral ink to color it in. I fussy cut the flower out and popped it up with dimensionals.
I kept the inside of the card pretty simple:
