Free SVG (Sure Cuts A Lot) 12.01.09 Christmas Cracker
Hey Everyone! Today’s free SVG file was inspired by our customer and crafty pal, Pamela from Australia! She introduced us to a Christmas tradition that originates from the UK, Australia, New Zealand and even some parts of Canada and Ireland! According to Wikipedia, a cracker consists of a cardboard tube wrapped in a brightly decorated twist of paper, making it resemble an over-sized sweet-wrapper. The cracker is pulled by two people, and, much in the manner of a wishbone, the cracker splits unevenly. To read more about it on Wikipedia, click here.
I don’t think our version will make any noise, but it’s sure to be a hit! Fill it with chocolates and various sweets and put them in your loved one’s stockings!

These are great!! Just tried it with wrapping paper and it’s perfect! as long as the paper is not super thin/cheap, it will work. Set blade pressure to 3 or test what works for your paper.
Merry Christmas!
