Every year, I tell myself I’ll get my Christmas cards done early, and every year, I find myself in a last-minute scramble. These free printable Christmas greeting cards have been my life-savers this year! It’s so wonderful to know I can just print a beautiful card right from home whenever I need one.

The perfect way to stay frugal, but still send love this holiday season. Christmas cards can be expensive so make your own for a fraction of the price.
🎄 What’s Included
I had so much fun designing this little collection of Christmas cards! I created 3 styles so you don’t send the same card to everyone or at least you have several options to choose from.
🖨️Printing options – For each design, you have two printing options. Use whichever works best for you.
- Letter Size PDF: This version is designed to be printed on a standard 8.5×11″ sheet of paper and then cut and folded down to a 5×7″ card.
- 5×7″ PDF: This version is perfectly sized to print directly onto 5×7″ cardstock for a quick and easy option.
🎅🏻 Merry Christmas Card
This one is for all the dog lovers out there! I couldn’t resist creating a card with a sweet pup patiently waiting for Santa. The classic decorated tree and festive red background make it such a fun and whimsical card, perfect for sending from the whole family (four-legged members included!).
🎁 We Wish You a Very Merry Christmas Card
I just love the beautiful, flowing script on this card. The festive botanicals and the warm colors give it such a modern and cheerful look. It’s a classy choice for sending your holiday wishes.
🌟 Merry and Bright Card
There’s something so classic and elegant about this design. It’s timeless feel is perfect for sending warm and bright wishes this season.
🖨️ Download & Print
✔️Grab the printable Christmas cards.
✔️Open with the free Adobe Reader or any other PDF reader. Go to File->Print and select the pages you want to print. Make sure you are choosing the right version for your type of paper. As mentioned before, you have 2 options for each card: print on U.S. Letter paper (8.5×11″) and then cut around the guide to 5×7″ or print on 5×7″ cardstock and skip the cutting.
✔️Fold the card and write your message inside.
📌 Printing Tips
👉To really take this up a notch, print these on card stock. This is a heavier grade of paper and the end result is extremely nice. The paper is thicker and it takes ink better than traditional printer paper.
👉If you don’t have a home printer, send these to Staples or Office Depot. They will print them for you with excellent results.
❓ FAQs
I recommend buying some card stock. That way your card will be sturdier in texture and hold up. If you use regular printer paper you might find it crumbles up a lot easier.
The average time to send out Christmas cards is 2-3 weeks before Christmas. Now, if you want to be ahead of the game, go right ahead. I like to take time and get them all ready in advance and then drop them off at the mail all at once.
If you are going to send them after Christmas, maybe write a note in the cards saying happy New Year or something along the lines. It is best to send before but we all get busy, and something is better than nothing.
