Step by Step Letter to Santa Drawing Instructions
Step 1 – Start with an “L” Corner
Draw one long horizontal line and a short vertical line on the left, like a gentle L-shaped corner. This sets the top and left edges of the envelope.
Step 2 – Close the Rectangle
Complete the envelope by adding the missing right and bottom edges so you have a neat wide rectangle.
Step 3 – Write the Greeting
Inside the rectangle, write TO SANTA clearly near the left side so it’s easy to read.
Step 4 – Add the Stamp Box
In the top-right corner, draw a small square for the stamp. Keep its edges parallel to the envelope.
Step 5 – Draw Address Lines
Below the stamp box, add three short horizontal lines to suggest the address area. Space them evenly.
Step 6 – Add a Cute Face (No Coloring)
Give the envelope a friendly look: draw two tiny circles for eyes and a small curved smile near the bottom center.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I decorate the letter more?

What colors should I use if I want to color later?
