Star Shaped Christmas Tag SVG

A star you can tie to something

Five blunt points make this far friendlier to handle than the spiky stars on most tree toppers, and those soft tips will not curl or tear in a bag. The hole is placed high up, near the base of the top point, so the star hangs point-up from a ribbon. Lower down, in the broad middle of the shape, sits one cream snowflake with six branched arms.

Two pieces, very little weeding

The solid file counts 2 pieces and 2 cut-outs, which makes this one of the tidiest cuts in the set. The pieces are the star and the snowflake. The cut-outs are the string hole and the single smooth opening carved around the snowflake.

The snowflake is loose once cut, so stick it to a backing card or carry it with transfer tape. It passes our cut checks from about 2.5 inches wide.

Layers

• Base and lines, nearly black with a green cast: the whole design as a base layer
• Tag, honey gold: the star
• Picture, warm cream: the snowflake

Choosing paper

Gold is what the color file uses, but the cardstock shelf offers better options than flat yellow. Metallic gold card catches tree lights, and a brushed or glitter sheet hides small marks. Glitter sheds, though, so keep it away from anything fabric or food-related. Cream or white pearl paper suits the snowflake, while silver for both layers turns the whole thing cooler and more wintry.

To assemble: cut the star from gold, cut a plain star of the same size from a dark sheet, glue the two together, then lay the snowflake into its opening. The dark sheet shows as a slim outline around the arms. Print Then Cut on white card gets you all of it in one pass.

Teacher gifts

A star suits a classroom thank-you without any extra words. Tie one around a coffee card sleeve or a box of good pens, and write the note on the plain back. Gold-star jokes write themselves, and a line such as “top of the class” fits comfortably across the wide middle.

Size guide

For a smaller star than 2.5 inches, print it instead of cutting it. The snowflake detail gets too fine for a blade below that point.

Tying it on

Thin gold cord looks right and passes easily through the hole. Wide ribbon needs folding first, or try a length of silver thread for something finer.

Pairs well with

The Christmas Tree Shaped Gift Tag makes a natural partner, and the Snowflake Round Christmas Tag goes bigger on the same motif.
