Hello

I am spending a rainy Saturday afternoon making some cards – and I thought I’d show you one I made for my brother, who is turning 30 this week.  

He is a huge Star Wars fan, and also a bit of a maths geek, so I went with a Roman numerals idea –  XXX is 30 in Roman numerals, so I thought I’d make the Xs out of light sabres!

  
I used Stampin’ Up! punches.  The handles of the light sabres are made from the jewelry tag punch. The blades are from the word window punch. 

The Death Star image is one I used on a Yoda birthday card a few months ago. I’ve uploaded the image to Dropbox for anyone who’d like to use it (the link is in the previous Yoda post). 

I made the inside a pop-up card:

  
The good folks at Flaming Text have a Star Wars text generator, which I used to make the image. You can use the image for free as long as you keep on their watermark (which is there in my card, I promise, just hard to see in the photo!)

I hope he likes his card! 

Thanks for reading.

Hello

My 6 year old and all his friends are obsessed with Star Wars at present.  There are a couple of Padawan birthdays coming up over next few weeks so I’ve been looking for some quick Star Wars cards to make. 

Here they are in order of simplicity!!!

   
 
The lightsabers are made with the word window and jewellery punches.   The Death Star is a print out sized to fit my 1 3/4 inch circle punch. (I made it for this yoda card I made a few months ago). 

The next one is basically the same but with the child’s name in Star Wars font – check out the cool tool at logo54.com/movie/starwars

  

I’m not sure you can really file the next card under “quick” but it was still pretty easy! And still didn’t take more than 10 minutes.  

  
Darth Vader and Obi Wan are made from the owl punch.  Vader’s face is the owl’s vest turned upside down with some black fake pearls for eyes.  

I made the cape with the curly label punch turned on its side and trimmed off at the sides:

  
I hope you enjoyed reading this.  And here’s hoping the little Jedis enjoy them too!

It’s a good friend of mine’s birthday tomorrow and he is a bit of a Star Wars fan.  So I decided to update a Yoda card I made a few months ago for his birthday.  

  

All of the instructions you need to make Yoda are in my previous post here.  

Here is a close up of Yoda, as well as some of my jewel stars and planets:

  
And a close up of the greeting, written over an image of the Death Star.  

  
I am a little bit chuffed with this – I made it in Microsoft Word to fit inside my 1 3/4 inch circle punch.  I’ve uploaded the image to Dropbox in case you’d like to use it yourself.  The text in the image is white, and I printed it out on Very Vanilla card stock to match Yoda’s robe.  

A 12 x 12 cm Very Vanilla piece on the inside sponged in silver ink finished the card off. 

  
I hope you enjoy!
