Hanukkah Truck with Menorah

Celebrate the Festival of Lights with this Hanukkah-themed retro truck SVG.

This free Hanukkah SVG features a charming blue truck carrying a menorah and a Star of David in the back, perfect for adding a festive touch to your crafts.

It’s an ideal project for creating unique decorations, cards, or scrapbooking elements.

It’s the 21st truck in my collection of themed vintage truck SVGs, and this will be the final design in the series. Next year, we’ll move on to something different for all the holidays and celebrations throughout the year.

Before you upload the SVG to Design Space, you need to unzip the download folder that it comes in.


Step 2) Upload the SVG file into Design Space

Open up Cricut Design Space and upload the file called svg-truck-hanukkah-craftwithsarah.svg

Make sure you upload the file which starts svg- in the filename!!

This is how it should look after you have selected the file:

Don’t worry if the image preview appears blurry – it’s a bug/glitch in Design Space at the moment.

Press “Upload” on the next screen.

After uploading, the truck design should be automatically inserted onto your Canvas.

If not, it will show under “Uploads” in your “Recently Uploaded Images”. Click on it and then press “Add to Canvas” to put it onto your Project.

Click the truck on your canvas and use the width/height boxes near the top of the screen to make it the size that you want to cut it.

I made mine 9.5 inches wide to fit inside a A4 photo frame.

I don’t recommend going smaller than about 5 inches wide as some of the pieces will get small and difficult to cut and stick.


Step 3) Cut the design

When you’re happy how the truck SVG is looking in Design Space, click “Make” and follow the instructions on-screen to cut out all the layers.

Change the paper size with the dropdowns on the left of the screen. You need to change it for every colour.

You can drag-and-drop the pieces on the screen to move them about to take up less space on your cardstock.


Step 4) Stick the layered truck together

Use 3D foam pads and glue to stick the layers together.

Use this guide to see the order to stick the layers together in. A high quality printable version of this assembly guide is included in the folder when you download this SVG.

I used Bearly Art Glue to stick the project together.

It’s SO good because it doesn’t “warp” or bend the cardstock like some glues do. You can use as much of it as you want and the card stays perfect – and it dries perfectly clear too!

Collall All-Purpose Glue is another great one to use for cardstock, which is more readily available in the UK.

I like these foam pads from “Dot & Dab”, but any will do. If yours are large then you might need to cut them smaller with a pair of scissors.

When adding the foam pads to larger pieces, make sure you add some in the middle of the pieces of card so it gives some stability to the middles. If you don’t add any foam pads in the middles then it can dip/sag down under the weight of the other layers which doesn’t look as good.

Once you have finished sticking all the pieces together, your truck is ready to be framed, added to a greetings card or scrapbook page – or, however else you are planning on displaying it!
