Eucalyptus Birthday Wreath SVG

About this design

Eucalyptus has become the go-to green for modern florals, and its round silver-dollar leaves make a lovely, airy wreath. Here two curving stems run around the design, each lined with round leaves on short stalks, and meet at the bottom in a small cluster: a layered rose in the center, a blush flower on each side and a pair of sage sprigs. Happy Birthday sits in the middle in a formal, looping script.

The cool green and the open center give it a calm, grown-up look, the kind of design that suits a quiet celebration as well as a party.

Color layers

• Base and lines: dark slate blue-gray, the backing and the outline around each coin leaf
• Leaf green: muted sage, the two small sprigs at the bottom
• Eucalyptus: pale gray-green, the two long stems and all of their round leaves
• Blush: soft pink, the two small flowers and the outer petals of the rose
• Rose: deep dusty pink, the cup of the rose
• Lettering: dark slate, the greeting

Pieces and weeding

There are 22 pieces in the solid file and 12 cut-outs. The wreath, the flower cluster and the words are separate parts, and each needs support: carry vinyl across on tape, and mount paper on a card. Weed the letter openings first, then the hearts of the little flowers. It passes our cut checks from about 5.5 inches wide.

What to make

Cards. A square card of 6 inches fits the wreath well, with the greeting framed in the middle.

Tote bags and pillow covers. The round shape centers easily on fabric. Cut it in one or two colors of iron-on vinyl for a soft look.

Framed florals. Layer it in paper at 10 to 12 inches and set it in a deep frame for a keepsake.

Party decor. A large wreath cut from card makes a good centerpiece for a brunch or tea table, or a sign for the door.

Size guide

Below 5.5 inches the little stalks that hold each leaf get too thin. For a gift tag, print the color file and cut around it with Print Then Cut.

A tip for the leaves

Each eucalyptus stem is one long piece with many round leaves along it. Cut it from a sturdy card and lift it from the mat slowly by peeling the mat away from the card, not the other way round, so the stalks do not bend.

Color ideas

• Silver or pale blue card for the leaves, with white flowers, for a winter birthday
• Sage and cream only for a minimalist look
• Gold foil lettering on a dark green card

Pairs well with

The Floral Happy Birthday uses the same script with a garland instead of a wreath, and the Floral Age Frame is an empty round wreath for a number.
