The characters are next and on these I used 3D foam dots to give the card some depth and to make them stand out. You can attach the light sabers with the foam dots. Place the characters evenly apart and make sure there is space to put the rectangles under each character.

Next create a rectangle for under each character to put the saying. Change the Star Jedi from basic to pen and attach the writing to the rectangles. Tip: We printed off our Yoda Best Dad colouring card on our HP Envy 5540 using 160 gsm card and it is perfect for colouring with pencils, felt tips or even paints. So we had something of a brainstorm and they decided that they wanted to have Star Wars themed cards for Father’s Day this year and then I had a chat with Leslianne with their Yoda Best idea and these amazing cards were born.Cut the base layer of the card with the paper trimmer (5×7) and attach to the blank card with double sided squares. Use a small hole punch to make a hole in the bottom, middle circle of BB-8’s head as shown in the pictures. You Now need a beige or light brown robes.

I did create this card with my Cricut Joy, but it can be created with any Cricut machine. My Father’s Day card is a 5×7 card, but I like to cut all my card mats with a paper trimmer. It’s my thing. I also like to use already made blank cards and envelopes (I just find it easier). This year I decided to just make my own (and because I made those little printable Mother’s Day booklets, I felt like I needed something for the dads, too!). Star Wars breakfast ideas (Chewbacca hash browns would be a fun way to wake up Dad on Father’s Day!) Line up the other two body pieces then place BB-8’s head on top of the body and mark the spot where the head hole is with a pen.

One of the questions I always get asked is “Can you make a greeting cards with Cricut?” Yes! Of course you can! It will save you so much money to make your cards instead of buying them. I always buy my blank cards and envelopes on sale for the year. Making greeting cards will also save you cash because you can to use up your scrap vinyl and paper pieces. For all of my Cricut cards, I always lay out the pieces and get an idea of how they look and where they should be placed. When I did this I decided I didn’t like the blueish grey I had used for the rectangles with the sayings and redid them on a lighter grey. It’s always a good idea to lay it out before you start glueing. Once the rectangles are added, the Happy Father’s Day card is all done. It seems like a lot of steps, but if you know how to use the slice and contour tool in Design Space then this card only takes a few minutes to make. If you’re using the full-color version, have your child color in BB-8 and sign his or her name inside the card.So with Claire’s help, and maybe some inspiration from Darth Vader, I worked up some cute FREE printable Father’s Day Cards and then decided this one made me the happiest. Finally make a light saber out of your white card. I used a silver pen for the halter and a blue/ yellow highlighter mixed for the green light saber light (I didn’t have a green high lighter, ha!).
