Dr. Seuss Preview for Back to School Shirts, Mugs and Classroom Signs
This Dr. Seuss bundle preview is a collage sheet of Seuss-themed quotes, characters and teacher lettering, delivered as SVG, PNG, DXF and EPS files for cutting and printing. You get a mix of designs built around the Cat in the Hat with his red-and-white striped hat, Horton the elephant, Thing 1 and Thing 2 with their blue hair, and the Lorax with his tufts and trees. The lettering includes phrases such as “Books are my thing” and “Be kind Be true just be you”, set in red, sky blue, dark navy blue and yellow on a white background. Use the files to make shirts, tumblers, mugs, bookmarks, stickers and classroom posters for back to school, Read Across America Day and teacher appreciation. Each file is a separate design you can pull from the sheet and cut or print on its own.
Design breakdown
The preview sheet is laid out as a collage and shows designs with bold black outlines in red, white, sky blue, dark navy blue, yellow, green, orange and black. Among the designs shown in the preview are the Cat in the Hat with a red-and-white striped hat, Thing 1 and Thing 2 with blue hair, the Lorax with tufts and trees, and the Oh the Places You’ll Go hot air balloon. Other designs include the green eggs and ham style elements, a pencil, books, and the lettering “Peace.Love.Reading.” Fine details such as the hat stripes and the tree tufts are thin, so cut those designs at 4 inches or larger. Individual designs are built in 3 layers, so they weed cleanly for vinyl and can be printed as one piece for sublimation.
