Free Christmas Cut File Designs

Here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, I can say without a smidge of doubt that my favorite designing is done for the holiday season. Starting in June, I put on my holiday music, grab my iPad and pencil, and start sketching out oodles of new Christmas SVG designs I can use and share with you all.

This year is no exception, but I wanted to incorporate a specific request from a reader: “Can you make a couple of Merry Christmas SVG files I can use for signs, cards, ornaments, and gift tags? My Grandmother passed away and always used “Merry Christmas” to diffuse tense situations (any time of year!). She could make any grumpy stranger smile and I want to honor her by putting it everywhere this year.”

Challenge accepted. And what a fun grandmother you had, Lacey.

Free Merry Christmas Cut File with Ornaments

I created this free Merry Christmas SVG with ornaments design so I could create a sign AND a holiday card (it makes me happy when designs pull double duty). This design works well for both a square and a horizontal frame or wood blank.

If you want to make your own cards, just print the file in highest quality onto card stock using a regular word processing program (Apple’s Pages or Microsoft Word). Be sure to size it to a 4×6 or 5×8 card in the program.
