Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched Card

Good Morning! Here’s a quick encouragement card made with the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched cling stamp set. This is a stamp set with pretty sketched images and sweet sentiments and I paired it with a wood grained pattern from the upcoming One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper that will be available on July 6, 2023 as part of a new Online Exclusives release. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I stamped the pretty butterfly image from the Stampin’ Up ! Softly Sketched stamp set in Pebbled Path ink on a Crumb Cake panel. I cut it out with the largest square from the Stylish Shapes dies and adhered it to a Pebbled Path mat with liquid glue. I took a single strand of Pebbled Path jute trim and wrapped it around the image twice and tied a knot – I love the rippled look of the single strand of jute.

I adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper (available July 6, 2023) to Pebbled Path card stock with liquid glue and adhered it to the front of a Crumb Cake card base with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set in Pebbled Path ink on a strip of Basic White. I cut it out with the long skinny banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies and trimmed the right end.

I adhered the layered butterfly image to the upper center card front with dimensionals. I adhered the trimmed label with liquid glue under the art panel and finished the card front with pastel iridescent jewels.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set in the lower corner of a Basic White panel. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love the simple pencil sketches in the Stampin’ Up! Softly Sketched stamp set. They are perfect for making cards with a rustic handmade look. The sentiments in this set are just wonderful! And the One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper will be available on July 6, 2023 when the new Online Exclusives products are available! Yay!
