Christmas Angel with Trumpet SVG

Announcing the good news

Sweeping from the lower left up to the right, this angel has real movement. The gown trails away behind like a long tail, a single gold wing lifts from the shoulders, and the raised arm holds a slim horn level with the face. Three little sparkles sit in the open space in front of the bell, suggesting sound traveling out. As with our other Nativity figures, the face is a smooth shape with no features drawn on it.

What you are cutting

You get 10 pieces and 0 cut-outs from the solid file. Those are the gown, the wing, the arm, the hand, the face, the hair, the trumpet and three separate sparkles. Fine gaps divide the body parts, and weeding those gaps leaves everything loose, so plan on transfer tape when cutting vinyl, and glue paper parts onto a sheet of backing card. Two thin lines in the wing suggest feathers. It passes our cut checks from about 2.5 inches wide.

Color layers

Assembly order

Cut the navy backing first and treat it as your map. Set the gown and sleeve in place, then tuck in the wing. The face goes down before the hair, which overlaps its top edge. Slide the trumpet in along its gap and finish with the hand and the three sparkles, using tweezers for those.

Decorating a church bulletin board

An angel facing right naturally leads the eye across a wall, which makes it handy for a hallway or fellowship hall display. Enlarge it, cut it from construction paper, and pin it at the left side of the board. Let lettered announcements or class photos fill the space in front of the trumpet, and the sparkles will point straight at them.

Projects that fit

• Holiday cards with the horn angled toward the greeting
• Hanging ornaments of stacked card, backed with a second navy cut for stiffness
• Choir folders and concert programs, as a small corner mark
• Sweatshirts, built up from several vinyl colors at a generous width
• Painted wooden plaques, with the gold brushed on last

Size guide

For anything narrower than 2.5 inches, the sparkles and the hand become too small to handle, so switch to printing it and Print Then Cut.

Recoloring suggestions

• A pale blue gown with silver wing and horn
• All white card on navy, for a paper-cut effect
• Blush gown and rose gold details on a cream card
