If you have been following along with the first looks, you have seen the Wanderlust set. Definitely my favorite of this release. Love all the sentiments and images in this one! Here is the card I made. That little star/asterisk shape? It's the candy from the No Peeking set. I love finding new uses for my stamps, especially the holiday sets!

    How fun, the peppermints almost look like falling blossoms in those pretty colors. Simple sentiment cards are my favorite–I think this is one of my favs in this month’s stampede!

    Those colorful shapes look like pinwheels to me! Very sweet!

    I really like the colors you put together, I struggle with finding a lot of colorful colors that work together, I often do, black with white, and then something bright. I am going to venture out a little more ๐Ÿ™‚
