Regarding Dahlias NBUS #63 Card

I've got a perfect entry for this month's NBUS Stamping Challenge #63. Stampin' Up!'s Regarding Dahlias is an old set that I bought at a nursing home sale and and just now getting around to using. I fell in love with the large flower that can be used as is, as I did here, or stamped and colored in.

Unfortunately, the set didn't come with a leaf at all, so I used one from another set called Wonderfall Leaves, also from Stampin' Up! I chose a playful pattern for the leaf, since trying to make it match the flower really didn't work. I thought it matched the little dots in the patterned paper. The sentiment is from that set too. I loved it because I very affectionately say to my sweet little dog "hey you."

Here's my complete supply list:

• Stampin' Up! Regarding Dahlias Stamp Set
• SU! Wonderfall Leaves Stamp Set
• SU! Soft Suede Ink & Card Stock
• SU! Real Red Card Stock
• Carta Bella Home Sweet Home Patterned Paper
• Memento Lady Bug Ink

I always appreciate Darnell and love visiting her challenge blog. If you get a chance, find a stamp set or something that you haven't used and play along. It's always so satisfying and so much fun!

And finally, I just had to use the opportunity to include a picture of Bella, my little "hey you."
