Whale Tail Tab Templates | A4 Digital Download
 
Create beautiful whale tail-style tabs without needing a punch or die!
 
This printable template set includes 3 different A4 versions, designed to give you several ways to create tabs depending on how you like to work.
 
You can use the templates as reusable tracing tools, print them directly onto the back of your digital papers, or use the fold-and-cut version to create multiple tabs efficiently with minimal paper waste.
 
You'll receive:
• 3x printable A4 PDF template sheets
• Multiple whale tail tab sizes
• 3 different layout variations for different crafting methods
• Print-ready templates designed for home printing
 
The 3 included variations:
 
1. Tracing Template Sheet
Print onto cardstock, cut around the shapes, and use them again and again as reusable tracing templates.
2. Economy Cut Sheet
Designed with the tab shapes packed closely together to minimise paper waste.
Print directly onto the reverse of your chosen digital paper, or print onto cardstock and glue ledger paper, book paper or another decorative paper to the opposite side before cutting.
3. Fold-and-Cut Sheet
Designed to be used with folded paper.
This version includes score/fold lines and cut lines between the different size groups. The layout is arranged so the folded edge nests into unused areas of the page, helping make efficient use of your paper while creating double-sided folded tabs.

Printing note
For best results, print using “Fit”, “Scale to Fit”, or your printer’s equivalent setting so the full template fits comfortably within your printer’s printable area.
 
Because printer margins vary between models, I recommend checking the print preview before printing.
 
For reusable tracing templates, I recommend printing onto cardstock.
For direct-cut versions, you can print onto regular paper, cardstock, or the reverse of your chosen digital paper depending on your project.
