Made in Stampin’ Up! My Digital Studio
Why not make a card for a Star Wars friend since today is Star Wars Day! May 4th! May the 4th be with you?? Get it?? I didn’t at first, when my husband was wishing it was a work day a few years ago so he could repeat this Star Wars phrase to everyone! I’ve been to a few Star Wars movies through the years, but not the most recent one. My husband, sons, and son-in-law are fans (but not over-the-top crazy ones!) so I’ve had opportunities to make some Star Wars cards for them, especially my son-in-law! He even has them on display on shelves in a spare bedroom!
These are some of the cards I have made through the years. I wouldn’t be able to think them up myself, but you can find ideas on the internet, of course! You don’t even need stamps mostly paper and punches and maybe a scissors!
The picture above I made when Stampin’ Up! had My Digital Studio. Our family went to Death Valley a few years ago (Fantastic trip and scenery! If you haven’t been there, you need to put it on your list!) and although we didn’t know it at the time I don’t think, there was at least one hike we were on that my guys commented looked like something out of Star Wars. When we got home and researched it, it turned out that some scenes were filmed in this area! So I had a photo of my son on this hike and with My Digital Studio added a light saber!
But here are some other Star Wars cards I have made that you can keep on file!
This is a punch art R2D2 card, a little bit involved with all the small pieces! You can see it in my blog post HERE.
This might have been my first Star Wars card I made with Darth Vader and Yoda! I know I found some kind of “Yoda Language Generator” site where you could type in your message and they would translate it into how Yoda would say it! You can Google that term. Here is the blog post about this card.
This card was fun with the BB8 character! You can read about the making of this card HERE.
I like this Yoda card, maybe because of the colors! You can read about this card on this blog post HERE.
Even if you don’t send out any Star Wars cards today, it would be a good day to get into the spirit of Star Wars Day 2018 and try your hand at making some Star Wars cards to keep on hand! You know you must have some Star Wars friends or relatives you’ll be able to send the cards to for birthdays or other occasions! And look up that Yoda Language Generator! It really is fun to play with!
As Yoda would say, “For your Star Wars friends, make cards. Hmmmmmm.”
Happy Star Wars Day! May the 4th Be With You while you make Star Wars cards (or any other cards)!
