Six Christmas Gift Tags Set SVG

About this design

Why cut one tag at a time when a single page covers a whole family? This file lays out six small luggage tags in three rows of two. The left column is red with a star, a heart and a bell; the right column is green with a tree, a snowflake and a bauble, and all six pictures are cream.

Each tag has its own string hole at the left and stays separate from its neighbors, so a finished sheet needs no trimming. Their backs are blank, ready for a quick name.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 12 pieces and 13 cut-outs. Six pieces are the tags, and six are the pictures, each one loose inside a channel carved from its tag. Thirteen cut-outs sounds like more than it is: six string holes, six channels and one tiny opening in the loop at the top of the bell. Paper tags need a backing card behind each picture, and vinyl needs transfer tape. It passes our cut checks from about 3.5 inches wide, measured across the entire sheet rather than one tag.

Color layers

• Base and lines in very dark green-black: the complete sheet, cut as the base layer
• Tag in holly red: the three left-hand tags
• Picture in evergreen: the three right-hand tags
• Accents in cream: all six small pictures

Notice that the green tags live on the layer named Picture, while the pictures themselves are on Accents. It trips people up the first time they change the colors.

Size guide

Every tag comes out just under half the width of the sheet.

An 8-inch sheet fits letter-size card and gives a useful tag, so start there. Smaller than 3.5 inches across, the pictures will not cut cleanly, so a printed sheet with Print Then Cut is the better route.

Getting through a stack

1. Cut the solid file from red card, then again from green, keeping the matching column from each sheet.
2. Cut once from cream and keep the six pictures.
3. Trace each tag onto plain card for a backing, glue the colored tag on top, then seat its picture in the channel.
4. Line up the holes and add string or narrow ribbon.

To save time, use cream card for the backings and leave the small pictures out. The cream fills each channel and gives you the same shape in a slightly bolder form.

Craft-fair bundles

A set of six makes an easy small-priced item for a table. Tie one full sheet’s worth with baker’s twine, or fold a strip of kraft card over the top as a header. Six tags also make a tidy add-on for a teacher’s gift or a neighbor’s cookie box, since each picture can go on a different item. Mixing red and green in each bundle keeps the stack looking deliberate.
