Ten Year Old Jersey SVG

About this design

Hitting double digits calls for a uniform with some weight. This 10th birthday jersey draws a sleeveless tank from the back in deep navy, edged in varsity gold at the scoop neck and both armholes, with a gold band across the hem. Birthday arches over the shoulders in condensed white capitals, and a wide slab-serif 10 fills the back.

The number is gold, ringed first in white and then in varsity red. On the navy body that gives it a rich, stitched look, like an away-game uniform. The 1 and the 0 sit close, so the age reads as one bold block.

Navy and gold also look grown-up, which ten-year-olds tend to appreciate.

Layers

• Base and lines: deep navy, which is the jersey body as well as the outline
• Varsity red: crimson, the outer ring on the 10
• Varsity gold: a warm mustard gold for the neck and armhole trim, the hem band and the number
• White: bright white for Birthday and the inner ring on the 10

Pieces and weeding

The solid version has 22 pieces and 9 cut-outs. Because the trim, the hem, the letters and each ring cut separately, carry the design on transfer tape or keep it on the iron-on carrier. The narrow gap between the gold trim and the navy body takes the most care, and the center of the 0 should come out cleanly as one piece. It passes our cut checks from about 4.5 inches wide.

Width guide

Smaller than 4.5 inches, the trim lines become too thin to weed. Use Print Then Cut for tiny prints such as favor stickers.

How to press it

Mirror every color, put the iron-on shiny side down on the mat and cut. Press the navy base first, which here is the whole jersey. Then add the red ring, the white ring and the gold number, and lay the gold trim and white Birthday last. Each brand of vinyl has its own pressing directions, so follow those for every layer.

On a white or gray shirt, a one-color cut from the solid file shows the tank, trim and number as a clean silhouette.
