Where's the time gone?

Hello all! Sorry its been a while since last posting...school is keeping me nice and busy!

I'm going to be teaching card classes at the Eielson AFB Arts and Crafts center in November! (I had one for October, but it was poorly advertised, so no one signed up) I'm very excited to be able to share my hobby to those just "testing their fingers in the ink" as I like to say! So, here are two of the cards I'll be making, the third isn't finished yet, so I'll post it later.

It's hard to tell in the photo above, the bottom half of the card is also crimped. Adds a nice element!
I knew for November I wanted to use Day of Gratitude because it is amazing! It's the ultimate fall stamp set, and there is so much you can do with it!  I dug into my retired DSP stock and used Autumn Spice(2010 Holiday Mini) paper as well.

 Update! Here's the third card ( I made it this morning before school so I could be sure to email them to the Arts and Crafts Center on base) I was supposed to add the big pretty stamp from Day of Gratitude in Crumb Cake ink, but completely forgot it in my rushed efforts this morning! It'd add just a little more 'pop' to it, but for ease, I'll leave it for now!

 I found my prototypes in Split Coast Stampers (lots of greatness comes from there) since I need help in the simplicity department.  It kills me to leave them how they are, but they are still great, and took me very little time to make.

Have a scrap-tastic day!!
