Alternatively, you could give a printed card with a small packet of pencils or markers so the recipient can color their own card. 

How to make your printable Christmas coloring cards

  • Card stock in white (but plain paper works too)
  • Markers, crayons, pencils or similar
  • Metal ruler and butter knife for scoring (optional)
  • The printable template, free for our Newsletter subscribers

How to

Print your template out to card stock. The template is in US Letter size, so if you’re printing to A4 sized card you’ll need to select ‘fit to page’ in your printer menu.

Cut the cards out.

The paper crafter in me can’t just fold something—I always need to score it first. This gives you a clean, crisp, accurate fold line, but this step is optional and kids are probably not going to have the patience. To score your card, place it on a cutting mat, hold a metal ruler to the markers indicated at the top and bottom of the printable and run a butter knife (or scoring tool) along the line. 

Making the cards

Trim along the cut line, fold, and you’re done.
