Download - Digital Paper Pad - Christmas Crackers - Santa's Sleigh

This fabulous Printable Heaven digital Christmas cracker pad contains 15 co-ordinating A4 images that have been designed to make up Christmas crackers.

This set contains both full-size crackers and mini crackers which are great for decorating your Christmas Tree. We've even included some printable paper hats and some mottos (that I think are quite funny!) to use with them. 

The crackers are extremely easy to make. Print your chosen colour onto a sheet of thin card - inkjet card around 140-170gsm is best. For a really vintage look, print onto cream card. For a really beautifully finished look, print the polka dot design from our paper chains pad onto the other side.

Cut out the cracker with a craft knife and ruler and apply a length of double-sided tape along one of the long sides. Lightly indent a line along the centre of the diamonds, fold and snip out the diamonds with a small pair or scissors.

Roll up the cracker and stick it together with the tape, matching up the first diamond. Tie at one end with pulling ribbon or fancy fibres, then add a snap (available from party shops and Ebay), party hat, motto and gift. Tie at the other end.

To make up the hat, cut out and stick together at both ends with double-sided tape. Roll or fold to add to the cracker.
