About this file
Six designs, 100 × 148 mm (3.9 × 5.8 in), the size of a Japanese New Year postcard: a sheep among ume blossom, a pair of kadomatsu, a daruma between pine sprigs, kagami mochi, the first sunrise with paper cranes, and a whole flock of sheep. Each reads "Happy New Year" with "2027 · Year of the Sheep".
The English and Japanese edition adds a traditional greeting to each card: 謹賀新年 on three of them and あけましておめでとうございます on the other three, never both on one card, each followed by 今年もよろしくお願いいたします and the date line 2027年 元旦 · 未年.
The backs have a From line, an empty stamp box for real postage, the address and a few lines for a message. Two cards to a sheet: a sheet of fronts, then their backs, so a double-sided print flipped on the long edge puts every back behind its front. Lunar New Year falls on 6 February 2027, and the sheep designs suit cards for it as well.
The last two sheets are four money envelopes in the style of otoshidama, 64 × 95 mm (2.5 × 3.7 in), for a folded note or a gift card, with "New Year gift" and a To line on the front (お年玉 in the Japanese edition) and wagara on the flaps.
You get 4 PDFs, A4 and US Letter in each edition, 8 pages each, and the font licence. Set in Fraunces and Courier Prime, with Klee One and Zen Old Mincho for the Japanese.
How to print: open the PDF for your paper and print at 100 % ("Actual size"), not "Fit to page". Everything sits at least 11 mm inside the edge of the page, and no page uses more than about 3 % ink coverage. Print the cards on card, double-sided.
