Day 4 of our Free Star Wars Christmas vector downloads: today we have R2-D2. I of course have not yet posted the M4P version of R2-D2, but I promise I will, and in plenty of time for the next May the Fourth. Your gonna need it then, ‘cuz you know those droids like to party!
Halfway there: Day 3 of the vector Star Wars Christmas silkscreen patterns… Yoda in a Santa Hat. I am thinking I need to make these designs in cut paper or sticky vinyl. They would be really fun to put up as wall or widow decals.
Today is Day 2 of “M4P Mom’s Star Wars in Santa Hats” week. (or as she says it in Swedish, Star Wars i Tomtehattar.)
The patterns can of course be used for a lot of things other than T-shirts. I can see these patters being used for silk screens on a variety of different materials, or printed out and used as Christmas gift tags (or even Christmas cards – despite what my mom says). If I had an embroidery sewing machine, I would totally embroider these on tote bags, or kitchen towels. Feel free to send me your ideas – and PLEASE send me your pictures!
“Sweetie, you are not putting Star Wars characters in Santa hats on your Christmas cards, are you?” M4P Mom asked in a worried tone last week.
One of the things I do as my day job, is designing custom, high-end cards. So needless to say, I always design our own Christmas cards. I have been working on this year’s design for a month now. I never give any sneak peeks, and my mom was concerned, thinking with the movie and all, the cards were going to be Star Wars themed. Because that would be just…. Wrong.
For a year now, there has been an ongoing argument at our house. Not about finances, or who should clean up after dinner, but about stormtrooper helmets.
I like the original ones. They are iconic, classic and everyone knows what they look like. The hubby likes the new ones. His first comment after he saw the teaser a year ago, was “I have to get a new helmet!” I, of course disagreed.
Can you believe it has been a year ago since we saw the first The Force Awakens Teaser? I had no idea it had been that long… but the upload date for the teaser on YouTube is Nov. 28, 2014. So it really has been a year since all us fans held our collective breaths for 84 seconds.
And we all gasped with excitement when John Boyega (in stormtrooper armor) popped into screen. (Technically, it is of course not possible to gasp if you are holding your breath, but you know what I mean!)
May the Fourth be with You Party
