- Type who the card is for, who it is from and the message inside.
- Press Print at 100% on one side of an A4 or Letter page.

About this Christmas printable
The card uses a quarter-fold layout, so it prints on one side of plain paper and still comes out the right way up: the front picture, a small makekite mark on the back and your message inside. Print it in colour for a finished card, or as an outline so children can colour their own. The finished card is about a quarter of the page and fits a standard C6 envelope. Children can make a set for teachers, neighbours and grandparents.
Tips
- Thin card (about 160 gsm) makes a sturdier card, if your printer can take it.
- Make a set with different pictures for teachers, neighbours and grandparents.
- Children can add glitter, stickers or a photo to the front.
- The inside message prints upside down on the sheet on purpose: it is the right way up once the card is folded.
Common questions

So the card can be printed on one side of the paper. When you fold it as described, the message is upright inside the card.

A quarter of the page, about 9 by 13 cm, which fits a standard C6 envelope.
