Here are my sneak peek projects ....

From "Beary Thankful"...

I used Create A Critter 2 and Simply Charmed for my card.
The faces are from PKS Everyday Character Assortment.
My papers come from DCWV's 
Cafe Mediterranean and Linen mat stacks
as well as some scraps from my stash.
My orange twine is from American Crafts.
I inked around the edges with Tim Holtz
Tea Dye Distress Ink.

Here is a close up of the sentiment:
How fun is this stamp?!?!


I also have a project from the "Frightfully Cute"
stamp set to share with you:

I am usually NO GOOD at Halloween cards,
but this year has been different thanks to Tara's stamps :)
Talk about inspiration!

I used Create A Critter 2 for this card as well.
The Haunted House and Skulls both come from this cart!
I did run the moon section from the cut
through Divine Swirls Cuttlebug Folder
and inked everything up really good with Slate Ink from CTMH.
The AWESOME spider web cut is from the Edge to Edge cartridge.
The b/g mat paper is from Basic Grey's "Fact" paper pack
and the sentiment mat is from Ki's "Birthday" paper pack.
I added some black Enamel Dots from Recollections
to the sentiment mat and
ran some sewing thread around the card,
I liked the thin look to this instead of twine and added a gray
Enamel Dot in the center of the loops.

Here is a close up of this FUN stamp:
LOVE it!!!
