Wild One SVG

The classic first birthday saying, varsity style

Wild One is one of the best-loved sayings for a 1st birthday, and this version gives it a sporty twist. Wild curves over the top in big, heavy navy capitals. Under it, One stretches wide in a chunky royal blue face with two rings around it, white and then varsity red, the same stacked outline you see on team lettering. Three gold stars finish the design, the middle one a little larger than the two at the sides.

It is a short, bold design with no extra frame, so it sits nicely on a tiny bodysuit and still looks good stretched across a toddler tee. The wide shape also suits a high chair banner or the front of a cake smash outfit.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 12 pieces and 5 cut-outs, which makes it one of the simpler cuts in this set of age shirts. The letters of Wild and the three stars sit on their own, so move them with transfer tape, or leave iron-on on its carrier, to keep the curve. The rings pull the letters of One together into one wide block. It passes our cut checks from about 2.5 inches wide.

Color layers

• Base and lines: deep navy, the backing that edges everything
• Varsity red: crimson, the outer ring around One
• Varsity gold: warm golden yellow, the three stars
• Royal blue: a bright cobalt, the letters of One
• White: clean white, the inner ring around One
• Lettering: deep navy, for the arched word Wild

Sizes for a first birthday

At 2.5 inches it is small enough for favor tags and sticker sheets in vinyl. Below that, print the color file and use Print Then Cut.

Making a Wild One bodysuit

1. Mirror the design and cut each iron-on color with the shiny side down.
2. Press the navy base first, centered just below the neckline.
3. Add the red ring, then the white ring, then the blue One.
4. Place the gold stars and the navy Wild arch on top.
5. Follow your vinyl’s instructions for each press.

A one-color cut from the solid file is the quickest option and keeps the arch and the outlined One clear.

Ideas for the party

• Matching shirts for mom and dad in the same design at a bigger size
• A high chair banner with the saying cut from card
• Cake smash props such as a sign behind the baby, kept away from the cake
• Thank-you cards with a small printed Wild One on the front

If the party theme is pink or green, change the blue and red in the editor. Our guide to changing SVG colors explains the steps.
