Snowman Holding a Star SVG

About this design

A snowman with a starring role. It holds a five-point star high above its head on a little stick, like a child carrying a lantern in a parade, and raises its other arm in celebration. Its round head has a small dotted smile, and its big round body has no buttons or fuss, so the silhouette stays bold and clear.

The pose works beautifully as a tree topper decoration, a card front or anything that celebrates a little bit of Christmas magic.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 4 pieces and no cut-outs, so there is nothing to weed inside the shapes. It passes our cut checks from about 2 inches tall, small enough for gift tags and cupcake toppers. Keep the smile pieces on the transfer tape with the head.

Color layers

• Backing in navy: shows only if you add a background, since the shapes have no inner cut-outs
• Design in pale ice blue: the snowman and star

For two colors, cut the star separately in gold and layer it over the pale one.

Projects

• Cupcake and cake toppers in glitter cardstock.
• Gift tags at 2 to 3 inches.
• Tree topper signs on a small wooden board.
• Kids’ shirts with a gold star.
• Window clings for a winter display.

Step by step: cupcake toppers

1. Set the design to 2.5 inches tall and download the solid style.
2. Cut the snowman from white glitter cardstock, and the star again from gold.
3. Glue the gold star over the white one.
4. Tape a toothpick or lollipop stick to the back of each topper.
5. Push them into frosted cupcakes just before serving.

Variations to try

Tree topper idea

Cut the design at 6 inches from stiff glitter cardstock twice, glue the two copies back to back with a wooden skewer between them, and slide the skewer into the top branch of a small tabletop tree.
