Download - Digital Paper Pad - Paper Chains - Santa's Sleigh

This fabulous Printable Heaven digital paper-chains pad contains 10 co-ordinating A4 images that have been designed to make up that delicious retro Christmas classic - paper chains!

To make the paper-chains, print your chosen colour onto a sheet of paper. Turn the paper over and print the co-ordinating polka dot sheet onto the other side. Borderless printing is best for this (otherwise just trim off any white borders afterwards). 

Printer paper works OK but they come out slightly better when you use a paper that's a little heavier - 100 - 120gsm works best. White paper is best for the pastel designs but choose either white or cream paper for the stronger colours - cream gives your paper-chains a really fashionable retro look.

Once printed, add a strip of double-sided tape down the long edge of the paper on the polka-dot side. Turn over and use a craft knife and ruler to cut up the individual strips. Then just remove the tape backing and assemble. One sheet of paper makes around a 70cm length of paper chains.

Use a single colour or mix the colours to suit your decoration colour-scheme.If you don't want to make paper-chains, these sheets also work well as backing papers too!
