How to make your printable Christmas coloring cards

  • Markers, crayons, pencils or similar
  • Metal ruler and butter knife for scoring (optional)

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.
