Birthday Narwhal SVG

The unicorn of the sea

If the birthday child loves unicorns and the ocean equally, a narwhal settles the question. This one is round and smiling, swimming toward the right with a long cream tusk pointing up at an angle. Two grooves run across the tusk to show its twist.

The body is pale sky blue, with a cream belly along the bottom, three mint spots on the back, a coral cheek and a curved smile. A coral balloon floats up from a string tied near the tail fin, and three round bubbles in lilac, mint and butter drift in front of the face. A small fin hangs underneath.

Color layers

• Base and lines in cocoa brown: the backing and the balloon string
• Mint in soft mint green: the spots on the back and one bubble
• Lilac in soft lavender: the top bubble
• Butter in butter yellow: the lowest bubble
• Sky in pale sky blue: the body, tail and fin
• Cream in warm cream: the tusk and the belly
• Coral in coral pink: the balloon and the cheek

Pieces and weeding

This design has 16 pieces in the solid cut and 5 cut-outs. The three bubbles float on their own, and the balloon, tusk, spots and cheek are separate shapes too, so lift vinyl on transfer tape, or glue paper parts to a backing card. It passes our cut checks from about 3.5 inches wide.

Size guide

For anything smaller than 3.5 inches, print the full color design and cut it out with Print Then Cut.

Under-the-sea projects

• Mermaid or ocean party invitations.
• A birthday shirt with the narwhal in layered iron-on.
• Bath-time or pool bag labels in permanent vinyl.
• A backdrop cutout with extra bubbles scattered around it.
• A card with real sequins glued on as extra bubbles.

Layering it

The balloon string is part of the brown backing, so start there, then glue on the tail and the blue body. The cream belly goes along the bottom edge, and the tusk tucks behind the head. Add the three mint spots, the cheek and the fin, then the balloon and the three bubbles last, so you can space them evenly by eye.

Color ideas

A lilac narwhal with a gold tusk is a natural fit for a unicorn fan, while a mint body with coral spots makes a summer card. Read our guide to changing SVG colors.
