Hi all, Hope you're all having a lovely weekend! This week I was asked to take part in a new challenge by "The Joy of Sets". This challenge is an alphabet based challenge and this week is all about the letter C! Challenges are set every 2 weeks, and are for use with current and retired product so it really is a great one for all Stampin' Up! lovers out there! Anyway, the lovely Fiona Whitehead asked me to take part and how could I refuse?! So after a busy day with the girls and a curry, I thought who wants to clean the house on a Saturday night....?!! Looking through my stamp sets... I own 2 that I would have been suitable and I settled on the lovely Confetti Celebration which was a new set in last year's annual catalogue that is still current! I have seen this background technique used quite a bit for this stamp set on Pinterest and I think it looks really effective. I have used every stamp in the set to create a background, and then chosen 1 sentiment to use as the centrepiece. On this card, I used the Layering Squares thinlit dies to mount the main sentiment and fussy cut the stars to add something extra. I found that using the Stamp-a-majig tool really helpeful for making sure that my stamping was straight and not wonky. This was a really quick card to put together and will be great for a male birthday card! These are the products that I have used: I enjoyed taking part in this challenge and I look forward to joining in next time when I'm guessing it will be the letter D....now what stamp set shall I use?!!7

Wow! I absolutely love everything about your card Stacey - the colour combination is bright and bold yet lovely and clean. I love that you have used every stamp in the set and adore the layered "yay" in both the corners. Fun and cute card for any age group. Thanks for playing along with us at Joy of Sets this week x
