Beautiful Black, White & Silver Christmas Cards - Christmas Series 2019



I was able to play with Simon Says Stamp's Ornate Ornaments stamp set today and a simple color combo of black, white and silver. No, you don't need to adjust your color on your screen, these simply look like a black and white photo.


I chose to heat emboss the sentiment on this silver cardstock from Michael's. It held up ok but I wouldn't recommend it as a great cardstock for heat embossing. The top layer wanted to pucker in the heat.



I debossed the background panel with a Spellbinders embossing folder called laser beams. I just put the panel in so I would get an impression into the cardstock surface instead of a raised pattern. I thought this pattern resembled pine needles in a tree.



I stamped the images with Ink on 3 blackout detail ink and Copic colored them using my C Copic Markers. After completing the coloring I then stamped the outline images again in Versamark ink and heat embossed them with WOW Silver Sparkle Embossing Powder. This added so much to the images and really made them sparkle.


I used a single piece of 6x6 patterned paper from My Minds Eye to create all 6 cards. I cut the patterned paper into 1" strips, one for each panel. I framed the strip with some Love from Lizi black peel off stickers.


I framed the silver panels with black and white matted layers after adhering the ornaments and "hanging" them with black thread.

I finished the card panels off with glossy accents on the center ornament, a star shaped ornament. I really loved how it made that ornament stand out against the background and surrounding ornaments.

I really love how these turned out. Although, they took a bit longer than my normal card sets of 6, I think they are fairly easy to reproduce for cardmakers that want to make multiples.

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.

Lawn Fawn | No line Coloring | Nutty or Nice | Christmas Series 2019


Today I chose to play with my Lawn Fawn |Simon Says Stamp Collaboration set from 2018 called Nutty or Nice.

I know this set isn't available any longer but I know many people have it and this isn't so much about the stamp set as it is about the technique.

I used what I'm calling Nichol Spohr coloring. No line coloring with Zigs. She has mastered the technique and if you are looking to learn she has so many videos on her channel showing just how to do to this.

Some very cool things about this type of coloring is that you can make your images look soft. The traditional black line sometimes looks harsh.


Lots of fun details are hidden in this little scene. Like this squirrel, is he taking this acorn from his friend or hanging it up as a gift? You tell me.

Honeybee stocking gift card holder -2019 Christmas Card Series

I made 6 gift card holders using Honeybee's new stocking gift card holder die. It was a learning experience and I wanted to share all the things I learned while making these.


I pulled patterned papers from the scrap bin and some very old Christmas paper pads and some super cool flocking sheets from Thermoweb to create some adorable stocking gift card holders.

I embellished each stocking with twine and a jingle bell.

Joy To The World - Christmas Series 2019

I used the Raisin Boat stamp set titled Joy To The World to create 6 beautiful Christmas cards featuring pastel Copic coloring and patterned paper.


These cards feature dry embossing on the background panel. I wiped a gold ink pad over the embossing to highlight it in some areas. All the panels are framed in gold specialty paper and the sequin mix contains beautiful pastel colors and some tiny stars.



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