3D snowflake to fold into relief SVG
A broad-armed snowflake with twelve fold lines cut as slits. Fold up along the six lines that run out along the arms and down along the six between them, and the snowflake stands up in a shallow pleated star with no glue. Cut 120 mm across for a card front or a gift topper.

Will it cut at your size?
Scaling a design scales its thinnest part too. Here is this one at seven sizes, from 1 to 12 inches on its longer side, with how many copies fit a 12 × 12 inch sheet or mat.
| Size, width × height | Narrowest part | Cut length | Fit on a 12 in sheet | Rule of thumb |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.88 × 1 in (22 × 25 mm) | 0.53 mm | 222 mm | 110 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 1.76 × 2 in (45 × 51 mm) | 1.1 mm | 444 mm | 30 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 2.65 × 3 in (67 × 76 mm) | 1.6 mm | 666 mm | 12 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 3.53 × 4 in (90 × 102 mm) | 2.1 mm | 888 mm | 6 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 5.29 × 6 in (134 × 152 mm) | 3.2 mm | 1,332 mm | 2 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 7.06 × 8 in (179 × 203 mm) | 4.3 mm | 1,776 mm | 1 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 10.58 × 12 in (269 × 305 mm) | 6.4 mm | 2,664 mm | 1 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
The narrowest part is the thinnest neck that holds the design together; sharp tips are not counted. For wood and acrylic, keep it at least as wide as the sheet is thick. How to open the file in Cricut, Silhouette and laser software.
