25 Free Printable Christmas Cards to Color for Kids

Spread a little holiday cheer to family members, friends, teachers, bus drivers, and more with these free printable Christmas cards to color. Holiday cards don’t have to be purchased from a store, they can be homemade cards instead. 

The holiday cards become extra special when you add your own message inside. You can add any Christmas message you’d like since the designs are only printed on one side of the piece of paper so when the card is folded, the inside of the cards are blank.

Free printable Christmas cards are a great way to save money this holiday season, plus, you get the added bonus that it’s a fun activity for your kids to do to keep busy during such a crazy time of year. The only extra cost is the ink and paper.

Kids can use any color schemes they’d like for their cards. What I love about coloring cards is that two kids can use the same Christmas card design but their cards can come out completely different.

One kid can use traditional Christmas colors while another child can create a neon color version. Being able to color in their own cards is a fun way for kids to be able to individualize the cards.

Spread Christmas Cheer to Others

Looking for a project to give back to the community? Use the free Christmas cards to make cards for people in assisted living facilities, the military, people in hospitals, and more. You have my written permission to make multiple copies of the cards to color for a volunteer project or for classroom use.

You may not, however, sell the Christmas cards or try to pass them off as your own Christmas cards.

How Many Unique Cards Are Included?

You’ll get 25 different designs. Plus, some of the card designs included multiple versions for different recipients (teacher, Mom, Grandma, etc).

What Do the Cards Look Like?

The cards are a single-fold design, like a traditional card. Each design features classic Christmas symbols like a cute snowman, Christmas stocking, Christmas tree, candy canes, Santa Claus, and more. Plus, many designs include a holiday greeting such as  Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Season’s Greetings, etc.

Kids of all ages can color in these cards, honestly, the entire family could enjoy coloring in the cards.

What Can You Use to Color on the Cards?

You can use crayons, markers, or colored pencils. I do not suggest using paint unless you print them on sturdier paper.

What Type of Paper Should you Print the Cards On?

For best results, I suggest printing the cards on white cardstock. Use white paper instead of color if you want bright colors – color paper can make colors look dull.

You can still print the free printable Christmas coloring cards on plain paper. They will work totally fine; the only difference is that the printer paper isn’t as sturdy as the card stock.

What Size are the Printable Cards?

The cards are designed to print on a standard US Letter Size sheet but can be printed on other size papers as well but just may need to be resized.

Can I Print the Cards in a Smaller Size?

Yesyou can print smaller cards. Just change the printer settings to change their size. 

I love to print these cards off 2 to a page to get quarter-page size cards. Or you could even print them smaller.

Can I use the Cards as Free Christmas Coloring Pages?

Sure! you can use the cards as coloring pages by cutting off the blank half of the card. Each card will create one  Christmas coloring sheet and you will have half a sheet of blank paper left over once you cut off the card portion.
