I used "Delightful Dahlia Additions" (PTI) stamp set, and instead of inking from the bottom up, I started inking from the center out on the flower. I used Raspberry Fizz, Hibiscus Burst, & Sweet Blush inks. For the leaves I did ink from the bottom up with Simply Chartreuse, Limeade Ice, & Spring Moss inks. After fussy cutting the flowers and leaves out, I attached them to my card base that I had stamped with "Background Basics: Super Chevron" (PTI) in Simply Chartreuse ink and a Heidi Swapp background stamp in Smokey Slate ink. I also added the sentiment from the "Delightful Dahlia Additions" stamp set in black ink, and then a little bit of glitter to the centers of the flowers.
