Christmas card mockup online: card on a flat lay with red ribbon, pine cones and gold ornaments
Preview: Placeit

This Christmas card mockup works online. Open it in Placeit, upload your card design, and it appears in a flat lay of red ribbon, pine cones and gold baubles. No Photoshop needed. The finished image is 1440 × 2160 px, a tall format that suits Pinterest and Instagram Stories.

One thing up front, because an older version of this page got it wrong: uploading your design and previewing it cost nothing, but the clean download doesn’t. Placeit keeps this template behind its subscription. When I checked in October 2026, the annual plan worked out to $7.47 a month. If you just need a free file, the PSD options below are free.

How to make the mockup online

  1. Open the template with the button below.
  2. Upload your artwork. The placeholder is landscape, 1190 × 850 px, so export the card that way.
  3. Add text or graphics from the editor tabs if you want a message in the scene.
  4. Check the preview, then download. This is the step that needs the subscription.

The card lies at an angle on a busy background, so thin script lettering gets lost. Bold type on a light card reads best here.

Free Christmas card mockup PSD instead

Got Photoshop? The Christmas card and envelope mockup gives you three free PSD scenes at 4000 × 3200 px (attribution required). For a greeting you’ll post on social media, the free square Christmas card template from Adobe Stock is the better fit.

More scenes are in the greeting card mockup collection.
