Fresh Dahlia

Looking forward to this week's ca-UTE sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #185!  Let's try it in this week's challenge colors from Nacho Average Challenge #140!
One of the retiring sets I think I will miss the most is this one - Regarding Dahlias.  Such a beautiful and dramatic focal stamp, so easy to dress up or down - I have LOVED playing with this one!  Embossing, coloring, fussing cutting - this one shines for them all, sigh...  I tried a fun little color play here, and I think it comes off very fresh and unexpected!  Maybe the dahlias need to stay in the guest room for a while, lol...
Regarding Dahlias Stamp Set; Lullaby & Birthday Bash Specialty DSP; Baked Brown Sugar, Crisp Cantaloupe, Bermuda Bay & Whisper White CS; Baked Brown Sugar, Bermuda Bay & Crisp Cantaloupe Inks; Pretty Print Embossing Folder; 1 3/8" & 1 1/4" Square (both retired) & Banner Punches; Banners Framelits; Heavy Baker's Twine in Crisp Cantaloupe; Basic Jewel Rhinestones.
