DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #302 - featuring Painted Harvest Stamp Set

Welcome to this week's DOStamper Stars Thursday Challenge #302.  This week is it is "Home Sweet Home" challenge using the picture of the gorgeous flowers below for inspiration.

Soft Suede layer 5 3/8 x 4 1/8

Tip:  I used my Stamparatus(r) and the new Small Grid Paper to stamp all the flowers ensuring the flower placement was the same on each card.  To maintain an element of randomness I hand stamped the flower centers and the leaves. Want to see how I did it?  Video instructions coming soon.

Waterfront Catalog Card Case

Hello and welcome to my second October catalog card case.  Today, my one and only son, Sam, turned 16.  To celebrate his birthday we had his favorite birthday cake, Pecan Pie.  Happy Birthday son, I love you!!

This week I am featuring projects made with the Waterfront stamp set.  I have had this stamp set for a long time and this is the first card I made with it.  It is a lovely set and I think it will make great masculine cards.  Here is my stepped up version of a card on page 149 of the 30th Anniversary Annual Catalog.  

Measurements:

Blackberry Bliss base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4  

Mint Macaron 5 1/4 x 4  

Whisper White 5 x 3 3/8

Ink:

Mint Macaron and Blackberry Bliss

---

Tip: The original card in the magazine is stamped on a 3 1/2 x 5 note card.  I prefer A4 size cards (5 1/2 x 4 1/4). I added a car base and a layer to achieve the desired card size and to make the stamped colors pop.
