Dahlia With Frills

Okay... this was me playing around. I had an idea to make a tall cake with a ruffled effect. It did not turn out quite the way I had it in my head, but they never do. Anyway, I then attempted to tackle making a Dahlia flower out of gumpaste. I had a picture from a calendar that showed a close-up of a real Dahlia, and that is what I used as a guide. I want to attempt this design again now that I have learned what works... and what does not! Anyway - it is a 5-inch round, four layers high (so about 7 inches tall). Thanks for looking!
