It’s the second of the month, which means it’s time for the October 2025 SheetLoad of Cards hop with the creative team. If you’re new to SheetLoad, make sure to head over to Call Me Crafty Al’s channel to see her video and grab your copy of this month’s sketch. I always love seeing how everyone puts their own spin on the design, and I couldn’t wait to play along.

For my take, I created the fun fold card base that really lets the patterned paper shine. I used a galaxy print for the center panel and paired it with green watercolor cardstock on the sides. The fold itself is simple but creates such a striking front panel where I added my stamped and colored images. I followed the sketch inspiration but shifted things slightly to build a little night-sky scene with a moon, critters on a cloud, and an adorable bluebird.

To finish things off, I splattered my panels with Distress Ink and added gold watercolor for some sparkle. I made one baby card version with a sweet “Welcome Little One” sentiment and kept the rest more versatile so they can work for encouragement, hello, or just because. You can see the full process in my video below, plus a look at the whole set once they were all finished.
