Amazing Life and the Crafty Carrot Collective

Are you wondering what the Crafty Carrot Collective is?  It's a team of four Stampin' Up! Artisan Award Winners; Cindy Schuster, Krista Frattin, Jennifer Frost, and Susan Wong who bring you an online program each month based around a few focus products.  

For the month of February The Crafty Carrot Collective Blog Hop team of designers are all sharing hand crafted projects showcasing the Amazing Life Stamp Set and the Stitched Rectangle Shapes Framelits.  

And guess what...I have the most awesome opportunity and honor to stamp along side this team of superstar stampers as a guest designer this month. 

For both this hop and the Crafty Carrot Collective's February Online Program we will feature the Amazing Life Bundle along with the Botanical Butterfly DSP and the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack. My card for this hop includes all those products to make a festive and spirited birthday card.  In February I will be sharing a tutorial and video for the Crafty Carrot Collective, you won't see it here on my blog, but you can see it if you join the program.

When I first saw the Amazing Life Stamp Set I was thrilled with all the images and variety of greetings, sizes, backgrounds, and textures.  I knew in a split second that the stamps were going to be powerhouse set.  Here's what's great about the set.  It's bundled with the Stitched Rectangle Framelits Dies.  These new dies are a "must have" for every paper crafter. 

I started with a top fold Petal Pink card base.  I stamped the floral image with Grapefruit Grove Ink and then embossed the front of the card base with the Subtle TIEF.  I love that embossed touch.

The black and white prints in the Botanical Butterfly DSP pack are a blast to mix, match, cut, and layer.  I am loving how the Lemon Lime Twist and Grapefruit Grove cardstocks bring a bit of depth and interest to the things.  I did some quick and simple watercoloring on a few of the images using an Aquapainter.
