Less than one week until the Thomas family takes this show on the road—all the way to Disney World! With our trip fast approaching, I’ve got Disney on the brain (…more than usual). So, today is going to be another Disney design; but, to mix things, up we’ll be taking a jaunt to the dark side. Download these villainously delightful Star Wars die cuts and create something awesome!
A few months ago, my 4-year-old got a shirt with a Darth Vader illustration on it. He immediately became enamored with Darth Vader (a pretty obvious “bad guy”). He wanted to wear his Darth Vader shirt every day, and decided that every “bad guy” ever was on “Darth Vader’s Team.” For instance, I’ll read him the title of the book “The Three Little Pigs,” and he’ll quickly amend, “Yeah, and the Big Bad Wolf—he’s on Darth Vader’s Team!”
I’ll note that he’s never actually even seen any of the Star Wars movies, but that doesn’t make him any less obsessed. He’ll even ask to watch videos of Darth Vader (and the Stromtroopers) at Disney World. I’m pretty excited to see how he’ll react when he gets to see him for himself!
So, while I wanted to do another Disney design in preparation for our trip, I went with a Star Wars theme because of my son. Also, I plan to do another set in the future, but had to start with the dark side for all the reasons mentioned previously.
I use a Cricut Explore to do my die cut designs, and I absolutely love it! For tips on creating fun paper cuts like this one, see the FAQ section on my website. Also, be sure to check out the other awesome Disney freebies available on my site!
Enjoy putting these fun Star Wars die cuts to good use! Do you have a any Star Wars junkies in your home?

I can’t count how many times he’s seen the movies, or all the Star Wars Lego sets he collected! These cut files will be great for scrapbooking all those memories! Thank you!!!

My husband is in LOVE with Star Wars and I still have no clue which side is the good side. I can’t thank you enough. I can’t wait to surprise him with these for his cubicle (maybe).
