About this design

’Tis the season is short for “it is the season”, a phrase made famous by an old carol about decking the halls. This design sets ’Tis the in a heavy, rounded script with a proper curly apostrophe, and SEASON underneath in decorative serif capitals with sharp, classical proportions and a few elegant swashes, including a tail that sweeps out from the last N. A small holly sprig with three leaves and three berries finishes it underneath.

The capitals have the look of an engraved inscription, which gives the design a classic, timeless feel.

Color layers

  • Lettering in red, the base layer with the words and the berries
  • Details in green for the holly leaves

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 14 pieces and 3 cut-outs. The design passes our cut checks from about 5 inches wide: the decorative capitals have fine points and swashes that need a little room. For a mug, print it and cut around it, or cut the vinyl at 5 inches on a large mug.

Projects

  • Mantel and entry signs on painted wood.
  • Pillow covers in iron-on vinyl.
  • Large wine glasses or carafes in gold permanent vinyl.
  • Christmas cards, with the design cut from glitter cardstock.
  • Window decals in white.

Step by step: an entryway sign

  1. Paint a 10 by 20 inch board dark green and let it dry.
  2. Set the design to 16 inches wide and download the color file.
  3. Cut the lettering from cream adhesive vinyl and the holly leaves from light green.
  4. Apply the lettering with transfer tape, burnishing the swashes well.
  5. Add the leaves over the holly, and seal the sign with a clear spray.

Color ideas

  • Red with green holly, as shown
  • Cream on dark green for a classic sign
  • Gold on black for a party

About the lettering

The script and the capitals are free, open-licensed fonts, and every letter is already a shape. The holly sprig was drawn to match the weight of the lettering.

Variations to try

  • Cut SEASON in gold glitter and the script in plain red.
  • Leave off the holly for a cleaner modern sign.

Pairs well with

The Holly Corner adds holly to the corners of a matching sign, and ’Tis the Season to Nap is the funny version for pajama shirts.
