Reindeer with Scarf SVG

About this design

This reindeer is dressed for the cold. It faces straight ahead, with a round head, branching antlers, wide ears lined in gold and a big round gold nose. Around its neck, a long scarf wraps once and hangs down in two tails with fringed ends. The scarf is drawn in fine lines, like a sketch, which gives the design a soft, hand-finished feel.

The design is six pieces with three cut-outs. The fine scarf lines and fringe are what make it charming, and they are also why it carries a “Print & web” label on its page. It is best printed, or cut from about 7.5 inches tall and larger.

Size and cutting tips

For printing, any size works. For cutting, start at about 7.5 inches tall; the scarf fringe is very fine, so use a fresh blade and smooth vinyl. At smaller sizes, choose Print Then Cut. Avoid felt and glitter materials for this design.

3. Add the recipient’s name on the other side.
4. Print it with sublimation ink and wrap it around a sublimation mug.

Good to know

If you need a reindeer face that cuts cleanly at small sizes, the Reindeer Head with Antlers has a similar friendly face and passes our checks from about 4 inches. This scarf design is the one to choose for printing, where every fringe line shows.

Variations to try

• Recolor the scarf in your printing software to match an outfit.
• Add the editor’s offset border for a die-cut Print Then Cut sticker.
