Each fish is drawn side-on on a plain white background, so it is quick to fussy cut.
Ideas for your fish printables
- Junk journals: seaside, fishing and summer holiday spreads, tuck spots and envelopes.
- Colouring: the line art pages work well with watercolour pencils or fine markers.
- Cards and tags: Father’s Day, birthday and nautical cards, gift tags and bookmarks.
- Kitchen and recipe journals: decorate fish and seafood recipe cards.
- Collage and scrapbooking: beach trips, aquariums and ocean-themed layouts.
Printing tips
- All sheets are A4 portrait. Print at 100% (actual size), or “fit to page” for Letter.
- Use matte photo paper or 160–200 gsm cardstock for the colour pages; watercolour paper works well for the line art.
- Cut fins and tails with fine-tip scissors, or leave a thin white border for a sticker look.
