I Am Unicorn 4 Ways



This is my first blog for this week where I am the Growing In Unity Guest. I've had a long standing love affair with their red rubber stamps and I would 100% say my stamp collections largest category is Unity.


The last time I was able to participate in the GIU fun was in 2017. I was assigned a week in June and it happened to be the week my husband and I brought home our now 2 1/2 year old from the hospital. It was fun and busy. This time I don't have a newborn so I'm hoping it will be easier to carve out more time to interact with everyone. ;) 



For this project,
I used the stamp set titled I Am Unicorn designed by Angie Blom.
You can find the set here: I Am Unicorn









I created 4 cards using this set. They all have the exact same layout, images, die cuts and embellishment mix but in the end I create 4 cards that feel very different.



An all aqua mane with these golden eyes on a sweet and dainty star background. 




A gold and aqua mane with beautiful aqua eyes to coordinate with these more earth tone papers.




Gorgeous jewel toned mane in aqua, purple and yellow to coordinate with this super cute unicorn themed paper. This card has some super pretty holographic paper too!




And an aqua and purple mane to coordinate with the pure rainbow tones in the background papers. 

You will notice not a single rainbow colored unicorn in the bunch ( I know, I couldn't believe it either!)

I finished each of the cards with the other part of the sentiment



Unity Stamp Co does this very cool thing each week where they give some of their awesome stamps away just for some comments... seriously! So, to participate, if you are here during the week of 10/21/2019 - 10/25/2019, just leave a comment, it is that simple.

To watch me make these cards, you can watch them be made on my YouTube channel by clicking here: Delaney Jane Cards


If you've made it this far, I'd love to know which one is your favorite?






All items were purchased with my own funds. 

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.

3 Cards Using Need Coffee by Pink and Main


I used Pink and Main's Need Coffee stamp and die set to create three adorable coffee lovers cards.


I colored the three main images using different colorways to coordinate with their pattern papers left from several coffee themed Scrapping for Less card kits. You can find out more details about their card kits here: Scrapping for Less Flavor of the Month 

I show the coloring in this video which includes some new to me color combos.

Creating A Ghostly Glow

How fun are Halloween cards? This one features some super cool coloring. I created a transparent ghost and a spooky moon glow.



To watch me create this card on YouTube, you can click here: Delaney Jane Cards


I mention Kelly Latevola in my video, here is a link to her channel if you'd like to check out one of my favorite colorists.  Kelly's YouTube Channel

I used some very old products to create this card, one is a Fiskar's stamp set. I purchased this at a stamp event locally in approximately 2007. I'm not sure if it is available. If you are interested in finding out, just leave me a comment and I'll happily look for a link for you.

I used current products such as Nuvo drops, Spectrum Noir sparkle pen and distress inks. As well as Ink on 3 black out ink and Versafine onyx black ink. These are all available at major online and probably your local craft store. The embossing powder I used was specifically from Simon Says Stamp but I believe any clear embossing powder would work for you. And sadly, I used the last of my Post-It tape to do my masking.

Creating Two Cards One Stamp In Two Very Different Styles

I created two very different cards using the Trinity Stamps Thankful stamp set included in the Scrapping For Less Fall is Coming September 2019 Flavor of the Month Card Kit.

I wanted to step outside the box and play with my colored pencils and non traditional colors and coloring style for the first card. I even used the Ink on 3 Fade out ink for that design.

The second card I used my much more comfortable to me Copic markers and went with a more traditional color scheme.

If you'd like to watch these cards be created, you can click here for my YouTube channel: Delaney Jane Cards

I'd love to know what card is your favorite. What technique you prefer. Do you do this same type of coloring? These are two of 8 cards created with the SFL 2019 Flavor of the Month Fall is Coming Card kit. Look for previous posts and videos with the other 6 cards posted on my blog and YouTube channel.
