Sheetload of Cards Sketch: December 2025, Six Easy Cards
In this card project, I made six grungy Holiday cards using the December 2025 Sheetload of Cards sketch by Call Me Crafty Al, with Tim Holtz Christmas papers, stamps, and dies. All products used in this project are listed below.
Wednesday Workshop | Sketches and Fun Fold Cards Series
This project is part of my new ‘Wednesday Workshop | Sketches and Fun Fold Cards’ Series. This series used to be published on Saturdays, but I have moved it to Wednesday for some mid-week card sketch inspiration! I have a playlist with all of the past episodes on YouTube if you want to check it out.
In this series, I find a card sketch on the internet and make a card (or more) using it. If making more than one card, the first one will stick closely to the sketch, while the others will have slight changes or demonstrate different techniques. I have added fun fold cards into the mix as well, so we have lots of creative options.
Sheetload Card Instructions
To make the cards, I used the Call Me Crafty Al’s Sheetload of Cards Sketch for December 2025. Her video is linked in the box below, and it is where you can download the printable card sketch. This sketch makes six cards if you follow the directions exactly. There are also instructions on how to make one card if desired. This month’s printable also includes cut-apart Holiday sentiments!

Main Products Used
For these cards, I used a wide variety of Tim Holtz products. The background panels were cut from Black Kraft Stock, and the mat layer for the focal panel was cut from green Kraft Stock included in the Cools paper pack. The patterned paper comes from the Christmas Backdrops 2024.
I cut the pieces according to the sketch and assembled them on A2 card bases made from BearBoss Kraft cardstock.
Poinsettias and Holly Assembly
For the poinsettia flowers and holly leaves, I used the Tim Holtz Vault Seasonal Sketch die set. This set has a base layer and an outline layer. For the poinsettias, I used Simon Says Stamp Schoolhouse Red, and for the holly, I used Midnight Green. I used the Champagne Metallic Kraft Stock from the Metallics-3 set for the die-cut outline layers on the poinsettia and the holly.
Card Front Pieces
I cut tags for the card front out of Gina K Designs Ivory cardstock, with the PhotoPlay Nested Tags die set. After those were cut out, I used the Tim Holtz Bold Tidings Mini Stamp Set with VersaFine Clair Morning Mist ink to add the Merry + Bright sentiment to the bottom of the tag. I added Scrapbook.com 1 inch x 1mm Black Foam Tape to the backs of the tags, cutting it at a diagonal where it will sit on top of the holly die cuts.
Decorating the Card Front
Once the main card front was assembled, it was time to decorate! I added a holly die cut near the bottom right, then added the stamped tag in the center of the focal panel, overlapping the holly. Once that was adhered, I added the poinsettia die cut to the top left of the tag to finish off the card front.
Inside of the Card
I cut the inside card panels from Gina K Designs Ivory cardstock, and used the Tim Holtz Reindeer Flight stamp set to add snowflakes to the top left of the panel. I stamped the snowflakes using VersaFine Clair Morning Mist ink.
