Christmas Card Instructions
My Printable Christmas Card Bundle will download as a zipped folder with 4 card designs inside. Please unzip the folder by extracting all files and saving them to a new location.
Next, double click the PDF file that you want to print. Click print and go to Properties, and change your printer’s Paper Type to a matte or cardstock premium paper setting. Next, change the Quality to High, then click Print.
To cut out your card you can use a pair of scissors or a Cricut Paper trimmer. make sure to cut along the inside of the dash lines so they will be cut off.
Once the card is trimmed, use a ruler and a scoring tool along the solid line down the middle of the card. This will help you fold the card in half perfectly.
Now that you have your score line embossed, you can fold the card in half, keeping the design on the front of the 5×7 card.
It’s that easy to create budget-friendly DIY Christmas cards at home! Feel free to customize it by adding glitter, rhinestones or vinyl decals to your card! Let me know which one is your favorite down in the comments, or share your creation with me on Instagram @ginaccreates.
