What’s great about this Christmas craft is it can be made by kids of all ages as long as they are proficient with using their scissors.
There are 12 different cards in this Christmas-themed set, all of them available both as a black and white coloring page for kids to color in, as well as a pre-colored craft that is ready to be assembled straight from the printer.
A Christmas tree and a reindeer are just a few of them.
There is also a friendly looking snowman.
Psst: the reindeer you can get for free.
A gingerbread man is also making its appearance.
Naturally, one of these printable Christmas crafts also hides a Santa Claus.
How to Make Printable Christmas Surprise Cards Template
What you need:
- our printable template
- coloring supplies if you are printing the black and white version
- scissors
Step by Step Tutorial
Print the cards. You can use regular print paper and it will work out well enough, although we don’t recommend using markers for coloring the cards if you are using regular print paper.
You can also use cardstock / heavier print paper.
Color in the card if you printed the black and white version. Skip this step if you printed the pre-colored one.
Cut along the full line around the card.
Make one fold along the top dashed line.
Now bring the top dashed line, to the bottom one, aligning them nicely.
That’s all there is to it.
Your Printable Christmas Surprise Cards Template is ready for action.
Make one or make all 12, each and every one of them is really fun to make.
