How To Make Easy Santa Christmas Cards
1 – Download and print the Santa Christmas Card Template.
2 – Either colour the pieces in and then cut them, trace around them onto coloured card and cut them out or use the ready coloured Santa card template. You’ll have a red round body and triangle hat. Black mittens, boots and belt. A white beard, pom pom, hat, mitten and boot trims. A semicircle skin coloured face.
3 – Snip all around the edge of the large white semi circle to give texture to Santa’s beard.
4 – Glue on Santa’s face, red hat and white hat trim.
5 – Fold the round body pieces in half to make a card that opens and shuts with the hinge at the top. Glue Santa’s head at the top.
6 – Glue on Santa’s black belt and trim off any excess.
7 – Glue on Santa’s mittens, boots and their white trim. Add the white pom pom to Santa’s hat.
8 – Either draw on Santa’s face, use wiggle eyes and a red pompom nose or glue on the paper eyes and nose from the template.
9 – Glue on Santa’s belt buckle. We made one from sparkly gold tape but there is a yellow one on the coloured template if you prefer.
10 – Finish off your Santa Christmas Cards by opening them up and writing your greeting inside.
