OK I was FAR too excited when I saw the new level three hostess set in the catalogue called "The More the Merrier". Not only is it a sweet, sweet set BUT it has a line of pumpkins. I know what you're thinking....who cares? Bare with me....my due date is the end of October, I love Halloween and come the end of October there will be six little pumpkins (just like the stamp) in our house!!!! How fun is that? OK, I know it's a stretch but don't you think that's fun!?!?! So, should we happen to have a Halloween baby I may just have to use this stamp set for my birth announcements!
How are you liking the new In Colours here....very fall and fun! I've used the Dusty Durango and Soft Suede with Apricot Appeal and Pumpkin Pie....YUMMY!!!!

Perfect!!! You think of everything, now I have to have this set for when our family is complete. It's too bad the other stamps are only 5.
