Printer Settings

Use your favorite Canon printer to get the job done. Here I’m using my Canon PIXMA TS9521C Crafting Printer, it’s my everyday printer and my serious crafting printer, all wrapped up in one. For both printable design sheets you’ll want to make sure to select the “US Letter Borderless” option, along with the Photo Paper, Best Quality, I like printing from the Rear Tray, but you can also do the cassette for this printable.

Trim

The Santa Letter itself needs no trimming but the Nice List Certificate does. Trim the certificate and two mailer labels down to size.

Wavy Scissors

If you have a pair of wavy scissors, you can dust them off for this project to cut out the stamps, LOL.

Glue

Glue the mailer labels and stamps onto their envelopes. The Nice List Certificate will fit perfectly in an A7 sized envelope and the Santa Letter will fold in thirds to slip into a #10 sized envelope.

Glitter Optional

I sprayed the Nice List Certificate and Envelope with glitter spray. Don’t worry, it dries really quickly.

Note: The glitter is bouncing off my lights and reflecting white so the prints are perfect, but the fuzziness or faded look is because of the glitter!

Write Your Letter

Let your kiddos write their special letter to Santa and put it in the “mail”. Our mailman is very sweet, he took the letter and then slipped it back to my husband on the sly. A few weeks later the magical Nice List Certificate will arrive with a little hand written note from Santa, I seriously can’t wait to give them to the girls!

Crafters Need This Paper

Here I am again, singing the praises of this Double Sided Matte Photo Paper from Canon, it really is the most fantastic. I do all my text prints with regular cardstock and there is such a HUGE difference in the print quality. Even my husband remarked “whoa, that’s a big difference, what do they do to the Canon paper to make it print that good!?” I don’t have the answer, but I don’t need it, I just need the paper because it makes everything I print look absolutely fabulous. If you haven’t tried it, maybe you should put it on your Christmas list!
