Mermaid Birthday Card Ideas
Mermaid cards are all under-the-sea color — pastel hair, shimmering tails, and a splash of ocean fun. The designs run from kawaii baby mermaids to a bold, colorful cover, so you can match the birthday kid's vibe.
You'll find a purple-haired mermaid with a flower crown, a red-haired mermaid with freckles, a green-haired chibi, a rainbow-haired mermaid resting on a rock, a starfish-holding mermaid, and a blonde mermaid — plus a mermaid coloring page for a color-your-own card.
Pick one, add a message, and print a folded card at home.

How to print and fold
No special supplies — just your printer and about two minutes.
- Customize your cardAdd your photo or artwork and type your message in the Foldy Cards editor. It's free and there's no account to create.
- Download the PDFDownload the ready-to-print PDF to your phone or computer. You can email it to yourself and print from anywhere.
- Print on letter paperPrint the single page on standard 8.5 x 11 in letter paper. Regular printer paper works; slightly heavier paper makes a sturdier card.

Frequently asked questions
- Which mermaid designs can I choose from?
- Nine in total — different hair colors, tail colors, and poses, from flower-crown and freckled mermaids to chibi and rainbow-haired designs. Each opens in the maker ready to customize.
- Is there a mermaid card kids can color in?
- Yes — the Mermaid Coloring Page is black-and-white line art, so it doubles as a coloring activity before the card is folded.
- Are the mermaid cards free?
- Yes. There's no cost and no sign-up; you customize the card and print the PDF on letter paper at home.
