Baby's First Christmas Script SVG

About this design

The first Christmas only happens once, and this design marks it with the classic wording. “Baby’s First” sits on the first line and “Christmas” on the second, both in a soft, rounded connected script that feels gentle and handwritten. Two gold stars balance the design at opposite corners.

The script letters overlap and weld, so the words cut as solid shapes rather than loose letters. Including the apostrophe and the stars, the design has eleven pieces and eight small holes. It passes our cut checks from about 4.5 inches wide, which fits the chest of most baby bodysuits.

Color layers

• Lettering in red as the base, including the star outlines
• Stars in gold on top

Keepsake projects

• Bodysuits and baby shirts for the Christmas photo.
• Bibs with soft iron-on vinyl.
• Ornaments with the year added underneath.
• Stocking cuffs for a first stocking.
• Photo props. A cardstock sign held by the parents.
• Baby blankets with the design in one corner.

Sizes for little garments

Step by step: bodysuit and ornament set

1. Set the design to 4.5 inches wide and download the color SVG.
2. Mirror and cut it from soft iron-on vinyl for the bodysuit.
3. Slide a folded towel inside the bodysuit and press on the flat chest area.
4. For the ornament, print a second copy at 3 inches on clear sticker paper and cut it out with Print Then Cut.
5. Add the year below the design on the ornament.

Font note

The script is an open-licensed font converted to shapes, so you do not need to install anything and the letters cut exactly as shown.

Color ideas

• Red lettering with gold stars on a white bodysuit
• Navy lettering with silver stars for a winter baby
• Rose lettering with gold stars for a soft palette

Variations to try

• Place it on a circle background in the editor for a round ornament.
• Add the editor’s offset border for a keepsake sticker in a baby book.

Good to know

On baby clothes, choose a soft, thin iron-on vinyl made for stretch fabrics. It moves with the garment, feels softer against skin and is less likely to crack after washing.

Pairs well with

The My First Christmas with Star uses the baby’s own voice, and the Gingerbread Baby adds a sweet motif.
