Cheers to Another Year SVG

About this design

Made for the grown-up birthday, this saying raises a glass to the year just finished. Cheers runs uphill in a quick, brushy script, and TO ANOTHER YEAR follows the same slope underneath in small, even capitals. In the lower right corner two wide coupe glasses tip toward each other, one holding a burnt orange drink and the other mustard. Two avocado stars sit in the top left corner and two burnt orange stars in the bottom left, balancing the glasses.

The slant gives it movement, and the cream glasses show up well on a dark shirt. It is a good pick for a fortieth or a fiftieth where the guest of honor would rather not see the number spelled out in giant letters, and it fits just as well on a shirt for a friend’s night out.

Color layers

• Base and lines in dark cocoa brown: the thin outline round the glasses and the stars
• Burnt orange: the drink in the left glass and the two lower stars
• Mustard: the drink in the right glass
• Avocado in olive green: the two upper stars
• Cream: the glass bowls and stems
• Lettering in rust red: Cheers and TO ANOTHER YEAR

Pieces and weeding

In the solid version there are 27 pieces and 11 cut-outs. The two glasses, the drinks, the stars and the lines of lettering are separate parts, so use the iron-on carrier sheet, transfer tape for adhesive vinyl, or a backing card for paper. The small capitals need the most care when weeding. It passes our cut checks from about 5.5 inches wide.

Size guide

The small capitals are the limit; below 5.5 inches they fill in. For stemless glasses or napkin rings, print the color file and use Print Then Cut.

Pressing it in layers

Mirror the whole design and lay each iron-on sheet shiny side down on the mat. Press the cocoa base first, then the cream glasses, then the drink colors and stars, and the rust lettering last. Use the press settings your vinyl brand lists. If the shirt is already dark, you can skip the base and press the colors straight on.

Project ideas

• Matching shirts for a dinner out with friends
• A gift bag for a bottle of something nice
• Toast glasses for the table, with the solid file in permanent vinyl on the outside, kept below the rim
• A photo backdrop sign
