It’s a paper Reindeer party! Make some holiday memories crafting these lovely deer with your family.

I have included below a pdf file (with three versions of paper reindeer) for download, plus free cutting files suitable for most die-cut machines.

These paper reindeer look lovely as table decorations, on a wrapped present or as an ornament. All you have to do to convert it to a tree decoration, is punch a hole, add some string and hang the paper reindeer craft on your tree.

Supplies Needed to Make a Paper Reindeer Ornament:

• • White cardstock
  • Templates (digital file download below)
  • Washi tape
  • Ribbon
  • Tacky glue
  • Scissors
  • Digital die cut machine (*optional)

Cut out the parts of the deer using your electronic digital die cut machine. or print out the PDF file onto a sheet of cardstock and cut with scissors.
Run a line of tacky glue on the top inside of the reindeer’s head and back.
Place the two reindeer body parts together and press the glued edges down firmly. Be careful to only glue together the head and back. You have to be able to spread that section open so that the deer can stand.

Cut a piece of washi tape or ribbon and tie it around the neck of the deer to resemble a scarf.

Arrange all three paper deer into a group to decorate your tabletop.

You can alternately punch a hole into the top back of the deer, insert a string and hang on a tree as a beautiful Christmas ornament.
