A folded card feels like a little gift: the front sets the mood, and opening it reveals a personal message inside. This two-page 5 x 7-inch template is designed to be printed front and back and folded, or printed as two panels. The front is a deep navy night sky scattered with gold sparkles, with a graceful gold reindeer leaping across the middle, Merry Christmas in cream script and AND A JOYFUL NEW YEAR in spaced gold capitals. The inside page is warm cream, with a small gold reindeer at the top, wishing you a season of in italics, wonder and joy in gold script, five faint lines for a handwritten note and a signature from the family.
Why Choose a Folded Reindeer Card
Folded cards give you space for a proper message without crowding the design. The front can stay elegant and uncluttered, while the inside holds the personal words that make a card meaningful. Many people prefer folded cards for close friends and family, saving flat cards for larger mailing lists.
The Leaping Gold Reindeer Front
The reindeer is a silhouette in soft gold, caught mid-leap with antlers raised, as if flying across the night sky toward the North Pole. Gold stars twinkle around the edges, leaving the centre clear. The navy and gold palette feels elegant and timeless, suitable for every age.
The Reindeer Card Inside Page
The inside repeats a small reindeer at the top to tie the two pages together. A printed greeting sets the tone, and five soft lines give you room to write a personal note by hand. The family signature at the bottom is printed in script, or you can delete it and sign by hand instead.
Editing Both Reindeer Card Pages
The editor opens on the front page. Use the page navigation to switch to the inside. Click any text to change it, including the front greeting, the inside wish, and the signature. You can also delete the lines and type a full printed message instead.
Printing a Folded Reindeer Card
There are two easy ways to print. You can print the front and inside as separate 5 x 7 cards and glue them back to back, or set up a 10 x 7 inch sheet with the inside and front side by side and fold it in half. Many print shops offer folded card printing; send them both pages and ask for a 5 x 7 folded card.
Choosing Paper for Folded Reindeer Cards
Choose card stock that folds cleanly, around 250 to 300 grams per square metre. Score the fold line with a ruler and a blunt knife or bone folder before folding to get a crisp edge without cracking the navy ink.
Reindeer Card Wording Ideas
Inside wishes that suit the reindeer theme include may your Christmas be full of wonder, wishing you magical moments this season, or dashing through the snow to send you our love. Keep the printed wish short and use the lines for a personal note.
Writing a Note on the Reindeer Card Lines
A few sentences make all the difference: mention a memory you shared this year, a hope for the new year, or simply say you miss them. Write in dark ink on the cream page, and sign every card by hand for a personal touch.
Reindeer Cards for Children
Children love reindeer and the story of Santa’s sleigh. Send the card to young relatives with a note mentioning Rudolph or the reindeer’s names. You could even write the inside message as if from one of Santa’s reindeer.
Sending the Reindeer Card Digitally
Download both pages as JPGs and send them together by email, or share the front as an image and type the inside message in the body of your email.
Reindeer Card Colour Variations
Change the navy to deep green or burgundy for a different mood, and the gold reindeer to silver or white for a wintry look. The inside page can match with a pale blue or ivory background.
Reindeer Cards for Businesses
Businesses can use the folded reindeer card for client greetings, printing a message from the team inside and signing it by hand. The elegant design suits professional relationships.
Envelopes for Folded Reindeer Cards
A folded 5 x 7 card fits an A7 envelope. Navy or gold envelopes complement the front, and a small gold star seal adds a finishing touch.
Reindeer Card Display
Folded cards stand up on their own, making them perfect for mantels and shelves. The leaping reindeer looks beautiful among candles and greenery.
The Legend of Santa’s Reindeer
Santa’s reindeer were first named in the 1823 poem A Visit from St. Nicholas: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen. Rudolph joined the team in 1939. Sharing this fact inside the card makes a fun conversation starter for children and adults alike.

Reindeer Cards for Long-Distance Friends
A folded card is ideal for friends you rarely see, because the inside gives room for real news. Write about a highlight of your year and a hope to meet again soon, and the leaping reindeer becomes a symbol of the distance your good wishes travel. Friends abroad often keep such cards on their desks long after the holidays have passed.
Adding a Photo Inside the Reindeer Card
If you would like to include a family photo, add a frame from the Elements panel on the inside page above the note lines, or tuck a printed photo inside the fold. The elegant navy front stays uncluttered while the inside shares your family’s smiles.
Send a Card Full of Wonder
