Scrapping For Less Unboxing Sept 2019: Fall is Coming

Just a quick unboxing of the current Scrapping For Less Kit: September 2019 Fall is Coming

The rest of the video can be seen here on YouTube: Delaney Jane Cards

A few sneak peeks




Scrapping For Less does many things right when it comes to their kits but I love that they have downloadable inspiration sheets as well as a "recipe" or list of contents for each month's kit. This month's inspiration and kit contents list look like this.





All items were purchased with my own funds. This video / blog is not sponsored.

Confused about why I named it all Delaney Jane Cards if my name is Renee’?
This entire thing, shop, YouTube channel, blog, etc, it is all named after our angel daughter who passed away in 2013. I made her some promises when she passed away. I would spread joy, I would make her proud and I would speak her name daily. This is one way we choose to honor her memory, and help me keep my promises.

Coloring with Unexpected Colors

Get stuck in a rut trying to make everything look super realistic on your cards? Sometimes I do to. And sometimes I like to play around and have fun coloring items with unexpected or non-traditional color combinations.

I used a Raisin Boat set called Boo-Hoo to create this adorable C.A.S. halloween card using non-traditional colors. Raisin boat is now called SumMore Fun stamps after a merger with several small companies. I've owned this set longer than I've owned at least 4 of my children but who's counting... lol.

Creating a Custom Sentiment




 Hello Crafty Friends. Today I'm sharing this card made with an  Art Impressions stamp set and some Crate Paper papers.






Simple Copic Coloring and using a reverse mask to stencil the nurse's uniform and just filling in the cute little pills in these bottles was all the coloring I did. 

To create the custom sentiment I printed the words sassy pants on printer paper and then stamped the get well now!!!   I die cut the entire thing with a memory box die and adhered it to some white cardstock for stability. 

Everything else was die cuts, patterned paper and placement.  

To watch how this card was assembled on my YouTube Channel, you can click here: Delaney Jane Cards.

Paper Piecing and the Illusion of a Scene

I created an adorable paper pieced dress for this super sweet little girl. I wanted to show you don't always have to color in the scene to give the illusion of a scene. Sometimes the background papers and grounding the image will work the same.

This Unity Company Stamp is one of my favorites I own from them. I love that they are a family owned business sort of local to me.  I've had this image for a long time and I enjoy paper piecing her dress more than coloring it, and that is what I did for this card.

A little Copic coloring and some dies from my stash helped me create an adorable Halloween card.

Layering Embossing Powder And Adding Shimmer

I pulled out some older sets from my stamp collection today and used these large Fiskars sets. The background stamp is from Henna Petals and the sentiment is from Friends Forever Quotes. Both have been a part of my stamp collection for several years.


I layer heat embossing today as one of my techniques making this card. I heat embossed a sentiment over a heat embossed background. A very cool technique that will leave people wondering how you did that.

Also, today I my voice over was visited by my current favorite 2 year old...  I didn't redo my voice over because I'm not sure I'll find the quite time to retry. So enjoy a little from Ryker along the way. ;)

Copic Coloring on Glitter Cardstock

I created two adorable baby cards using some old and new items. I used a stamp set I've had for at least a decade and a sentiment set I've recently acquired. Mash up designs are always so fun for me.


I also tried a new technique I dreamed about and decided I wanted to see if I could make it work.




I used several dies from my stash to create the layout. I normally reach for sketches when creating but this time I just had an idea and went with it.
