Santa's "Sticker" Tree: An Easy Brother ScanNCut Project

If you’re craving a Christmas project that’s cute, reusable, and kid-approved, meet Santa’s “Sticker” Tree—an exclusive digital cut file set designed for the Brother ScanNCut. It lets you cut a festive tree plus adorable “stickers” (ornaments) that kids can decorate, rearrange, and play with again and again.

What it is

This file set is built to create a customizable Christmas tree with removable ornaments—perfect for interactive décor, kids’ crafts, or holiday gifts.

Why it’s a perfect felt “sticker” project

Because it’s designed for the ScanNCut, your machine does the precise cutting—so you can focus on the fun part: assembling and setting up a felt activity kids can return to daily. The “stickers” are meant to be moved and swapped, which makes it feel like a Christmas version of a felt board—sweet, simple, and endlessly entertaining. 

The sneaky-learning bonus

This is the kind of project where kids think they’re just playing… and you’re quietly cheering because they’re learning.

Here are easy learning moments you can build in:

• Colors: “Find all the red ornaments!”

• Counting & numbers: “Find the number 3!"

• Sorting: Sort ornaments by color, size, or shape before decorating

• Fine motor skills: Picking up pieces, placing them carefully, repositioning, matching

File formats included

The download includes SVG, FCM, PNG, and DXF (so you can choose what works best for your ScanNCut workflow).
