Gnome Holding a Star SVG

About this design

A gnome who caught a star. This slim gnome has an extra tall hat in midnight navy and holds a five-point star in both hands, the star drawn as a thick outline with an open center.

The navy and gold colors give it a quiet, starry-night feel that suits Christmas Eve, Nativity scenes and winter evenings.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 14 pieces and 1 cut-out. The star sits in front of the gnome as its own piece, and its open center is a cut-out. Keep everything on one sheet of transfer tape so the parts stay lined up. It passes our cut checks from about 3 inches tall.

A tall, slim gnome

This gnome is drawn slimmer with a taller hat than the others, so it fits narrow spaces such as a tall jar or the side of a tumbler.

Good to know

The star is drawn as a thick outline with an open center, so it reads clearly even when the whole design is cut in a single color. In the color file, the center of the star shows whatever is underneath, which looks lovely on a navy or black background. Because this gnome is slimmer than most, it also suits a tall candle jar or a narrow bookmark.

A glittering star

The star is its own piece, so it is the easiest part of this design to cut in a special material. Gold glitter vinyl or foil cardstock makes it look lit up against the navy hat while the rest stays matte. For a tree topper in glitter card, cut the whole gnome twice and glue the two copies back to back so the star shines from both sides.

Pairs well with

The Snowflake Hat Gnome matches the navy colors, and the Bethlehem Guiding Star adds a bigger star.
