Yoda Birthday Card

Hello my crafty friends!! Boy what a busy week! Today I am sharing the card I made for my hubby's birthday. We are all Star Wars fans in my family and eagerly anticipating the new movie coming out in a few months. I thought I would use that theme for hubby's card.


I chose the all wise Yoda. I cut him out and paper pieced him with my Cricut and the card measures about  5.25 inches square. I decided to make it shaped so I welded the shadow to give the front right side some more interest. I added some glossy accents to his eyes to make them shiny. I computer printed the sentiment and hand cut the little banner and added some silver brads.

 

For the inside I printed this sentiment that I saw on a Star Wars meme. And there you have it! Nice and simple and trying to be masculine haha! Hubby did love it yay!!

Thanks so much for hopping by!

Have a blessed day!

    1. Hi Sera, I just brought the image into DS and erased each layer to isolate the individual colors. I did not print it, I paper pieced it. The green is actually cardstock. Hope that helps. I can't share the file since DS won't let me.
