Fold the page in half, then in half again, and the card stands up with the picture on the front – no cutting or glue needed.

Christmas Cards Free Printable to Color
All six Christmas coloring cards are free printables. Print them on light cardstock (160–200 gsm) so they feel like real cards – regular paper works too. Kids can make a whole set for grandparents, teachers, the mail carrier and classmates.
Watercolor Christmas Cards
Our cards also make lovely watercolor Christmas cards. Print on thick paper, use a little water and paint one shape at a time. The black lines keep the colors separate, and the result looks like a hand-painted card.
