How To Make A Free Gnome SVG Banner
Use our free gnome SVG file to make a paper gnome banner this is perfect for Christmas! Use your Xyron to adhere all of the pieces cut on your Cricut machine then turn those pieces into a Christmas banner that will look great in your home!
Supplies Needed To Make Free Gnome SVG Banner
- Xyron® Mega Runner
- Cardstock in red, white, and tan
- Xyron® 3″ Disposable Sticker Maker or Xyron® 1.5″ Sticker Maker (you can use either one pictured depending on the size you cut your gnomes)
- White fur yarn
- Cricut machine (the Maker or the Explore series will work here)
- Baker’s twine
- Scissors
Step 1: Download & Cut Free Gnome SVG
First, take the gnome SVG you downloaded from your email above and upload it to Cricut Design Space. Size the gnomes to work for the type of banner you want to create. Then cut the pieces from the card stock. The main body and hat should be from red. The beard and hat topper should be from the white. And, finally, the nose should be from the tan.
Step 2: Place Gnome Body Piece Under Baker’s Twine
To assemble each gnome, add the main body piece under your baker’s twine. The twine should run along the top portion of the hat.
Step 3: Run Gnome Pieces Through Xyron Machine
Run the hat, beard, hat topper, and nose pieces through the Xyron Sticker Maker. Put the pieces into one side.
Then pull the strip through from the opposite side.
You can add all of the pieces in a line.
Use the serrated edge on the back of the unit to remove the strip.
Then rub the top really well.
Step 4: Assemble Gnome Hat & Paper Beard
You can then peel back the liner. These pieces now have adhesive covering the entire back of each one. If you have never used a Xyron Sticker Maker before, you are going to love it! It is so easy to add adhesive to small pieces like these.
Remove the beard from the backing paper first and stick right on your gnome. The pieces are just like stickers now so just peel and stick. The beard should be slightly above the hat line.
Then put the hat into place sandwiching the twine in between the two pieces. The hat will cover the beard piece just a little bit.
Step 5: Add Ball To Hat
Then add the ball to the top of the hat.
Step 6: Add Fur Yarn
We need to do a few things before we add the nose. Use the Xyron Mega Runner to add adhesive all over the white paper beard.
Then add two rows of the fur yarn starting with the bottom row. Just use scissors to cut it to length and press the pieces down well into the adhesive.
Trim away any excess yarn with scissors. Make the beard into roughly the same shape as the paper cut out.
Step 7: Add Nose
Then add the paper nose to finish the gnome. Be sure it is half on the hat and half on the fur yarn of the beard.
Step 8: Keep Repeating Steps 2-7 For The Rest Of The Banner
Continue adding as many or as few gnomes as you would like to complete your banner. Then just hang it up around your home this holiday season.
You are going to love these happy gnomes and how great they look in your home!
You really can’t go wrong with the free gnome SVG. Whether you make a banner or another project, it is bound to be oh-so cute!
So, grab your Xyron and whip up one of these projects in no time at all! You will love these little guys on your mantel.
FAQs About Free Gnome SVG
If you have questions about this free gnome SVG banner I have answers for you! Please leave your question for me in the comments if you don’t see it already answered below.
What Cricut Machine Can I Use For This Project?
All of them! The Cricut Maker, Cricut Explore series, Cricut Joy, Cricut Joy Xtra, and Cricut Venture, can all cut SVG files!
The only thing to keep in mind is that each Cricut machine is different in regard to project size capabilities and the materials it can cut. So, depending on what project you have in mind, you might need to resize the SVG file or cut it out in a different material.
