Christmas Truck Bauble SVG

About this design

A bauble with a story. A big round ball with a cap and loop forms the ornament, and a vintage pickup with its Christmas tree drives across the front of it.

The solid ball makes the design sturdy, so it cuts well from wood, felt and thick card.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 9 pieces and 8 cut-outs. The truck is outlined against the bauble by a thin cut line, and its window, door and tailgate lines are cut-outs. Keep everything on one sheet of transfer tape so the parts stay lined up. It passes our cut checks from about 3 inches tall.

One color

Cut in one color, the truck shows as a fine outline inside the solid ball, which looks lovely engraved or painted.

Good to know

The cap and loop are part of the bauble, so it hangs without drilling. The truck’s 8 cut-outs, its window, door and tailgate lines, are small at ornament size, so on felt it is often easier to draw them on with a fabric pen than to cut them. At 3 inches it suits a gift tag; at 5 inches the tree in the truck bed is big enough for a dab of glitter glue on its star.

Cutting tips

The bauble is one solid shape, so it is the easiest truck design to cut from felt or thick card. If you laser-cut it, engrave the truck lines instead of cutting them and paint the truck red. For a set, cut baubles in three colors and keep the truck the same on each. The color file has 4 layers, and every layer can be changed in the editor on this page before you download.

Pairs well with

The Christmas Truck Ornament is a ring version, and the Classic Round Christmas Bauble is the bauble alone.
