Limited Edition

 A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away.........

I've always been a StarWars fan, since I was young. When I received "Walter" (he was the chosen one from the Tim Holtz/Sizzix Diecember gift) many ideas came to mind. But this one in particular stood out. I managed to make Walter into Darth Vader.


Using the Alphanumeric lower (the letter l) and kraft stock in metallic and blackout, I made the light sabre. Then attached it to Walter. The body of Walter is layered with Kraft stock in black and grey. The base of the card I used the distress two tone wood grain black, from Tim's Halloween release, a couple years back.


Making of the Death Star: with cms405 mini glitch. The circle with many designs was perfect for the death star. Using distress oxides in black soot, hickory smoke and lost shadow, stamping the image 3 times in each distress colour and cutting out sections from the stamped images, in hickory smoke and lost shadow, leaving the stamped image in black soot for the base. This adds dimension to the death star.


TH/SA cms446 noteworthy stamps are the perfect font for this card. I chose "limited edition" and stamped with distress archival ink in black soot. 


Adding a few pop ups behind Walter to add dimension.


I hope you enjoyed how I made Walter into Darth Vader and it leaves you feeling inspired.

 Have you seen Tim's second Vault Series? All the dies are incredible. So much detail in all of them. One of my favourites is the Vault ...
