Utterly - Usage

Can I replace completely, extraordinarily, extremely? and is it used only in the negative context?

Can I use utterly in the positive context like below.
Dressing the doll with cute outfit will make it utterly beautiful. She is a utterly beautiful girl.

He turned it into a utterly beautiful item that can be given to anyone you love.
