About this design

Every cat owner knows the best part of Christmas is the box. This fluffy kitten has climbed inside an open present and is peeking out over the edge, paws hanging over the front, while the lid tips back behind it. A bow sits just behind its ear, and its tail curls up from the back of the box.

It is our own original kitten, and it tells a little story that makes people smile, which is exactly what you want on a gift tag or a card. It also makes a sweet printed sticker for wrapping paper.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file is a single connected piece with 9 cut-outs, which show the box edges, the kitten’s face and the bow. One piece means it transfers easily and stays in place. It passes our cut checks from about 4.5 inches tall, and it is bold enough for felt at 6 inches and up.

Color layers

  • Backing in cream: shows as the box edges, the face and the bow details
  • Design in raspberry pink: the kitten and the box

Projects

  • Gift tags for presents “from the cat”.
  • Christmas cards for cat lovers.

Step by step: a felt ornament

  1. Set the design to 6 inches tall and download the solid style.
  2. Cut it from stiff red felt and again from white felt with the editor’s offset border turned up a little.
  3. Glue the red kitten onto the slightly larger white backing.
  4. Add a small black bead for each eye.
  5. Stitch a ribbon loop to the back and hang it on the tree.

Why it works for babies

The single connected piece and large cut-outs make it one of the gentlest designs to press on baby clothes: there are no loose bits to lift in the wash, and soft iron-on vinyl stays flexible. Add “My first Christmas” below for a sweet keepsake bodysuit.

Pairs well with

The Puppy in a Gift Box is a matching dog version, and the Open Gift Box gives you an empty present.
