About this card
A tall nutcracker soldier with a feathered hat, braided jacket and boots stands on the front of this half-fold card, with a big JOY to color underneath. The uniform has many small parts, so this one suits patient colorers. Inside: a printed wish and ruled lines. Folded size 5.5 x 8.5 in. Print on US Letter or A4, color the front, then fold the sheet in half along the dashed line so the picture is on the outside. Page 2 is the inside of the card: print it on the back of the same sheet (2-sided, flip on the long edge) or skip it and write your message by hand. It has lots of smaller spaces, so it suits kids 8 and up, teens and adults. Add white for snow.
Coloring ideas
- Red, green and gold make a classic Christmas palette.
- Color before you fold: a flat sheet is easier to color and the crease will not crack the crayon layer.
- Score the fold with a ruler and the back of a butter knife before folding cardstock; the edge comes out crisp.
- A half-fold card fits a standard A2 envelope (4 3/8 x 5 3/4 in); the mini cards fit a 4-bar envelope or a lunchbox.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). It is a vector file, so the lines stay sharp on any printer. This page is free for personal, family and classroom use.
