Homemade Christmas CD Printable
Posted by Amy | Filed under Christmas, Free Downloads & Printables
I have a great homemade Christmas gift idea for those not-so crafty types. You know who you are!
Last year I burned CD’s with my favorite Christmas songs and designed this cute case cover.
Since this was well before I ever started blogging, I don’t have photos of how cute they were packaged. But picture if you will… the CD in a clear bag (so you can see the design) with a little bit of shredded green paper on the bottom, then tied with a zebra print ribbon along with a silver star ornament. Doesn’t that sound pretty? It was!
Because I’m feeling the Christmas spirit, I re-designed this so you could print and use for yourself! Now all you need is some music and you’ve got a perfect homemade gift for friends and teachers. Just click the image to download and print. Have fun!
Tidy Mom made a CD and packaged it so cute!
Have you created something with my designs? I’d love to show it off, so please contact me or send me a photo.

I really like your cd case design with all of the textures and shapes. Then again, I think I like all of your designs.
The lucky ducks who got one!

That is such a great idea!! In my case, it would have to be a multipack of CDs. My Christmas playlist on my iTunes has enough to make four favorite Christmas CDs but that is really a good idea and I just may use it!!

I did this last year too!!! But I like your design/cover better – mine was just a big Santa face – I may do this again this year to some new people, and I will use your cover!! Thanks again!!

Amy, Domenic the Donkey was the first song I dragged over today on to my playlist. I had an incomplete list because I only managed to carry some of my songs from the PC to my laptop. Long story but you can use your iPod to dump songs from one PC to another. It’s just that the songs land in there with only a code – no title. You then have to figure all of that out by listening and then inputting all of the info again. However, when I decoded the first song, it was Domenic the Donkey followed by Gayla Peevy singing “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”.
I have over 100 Christmas songs in my playlist so I’d actually need about 8 CDs to burn them all! But, I do have my favorites….

Yep, I do know who I am (the not-crafty type), so I appreciate that you came up with something simple enough that even I could do! I love Christmas music and could really get into a project like this.
