R2D2, Where are you?

"Excuse me sir, but that R2-D2 is in prime condition, a real bargain" - C3PO to Luke

You betcha.  A customer asked me if I could make one of my paper bag puppet cards into Yoda, R2D2 or Luke Skywalker.  Always one to take on a challenge I heartily replied, "No problem!  Of course I can!"  To me there is something very endearing about good ol' Yoda so I tried him first.  No go.  Those ears of his just don't work on this kind of card.  I thought about Luke, but trying to make him look like Luke, and not just some guy, would be tricky.  R2D2 it is.  Lots of little bits and pieces on this guy and fiddly little gluing but here's what I came up with:


She loves him!  Yay!  I keep hearing little "bleep-bleep-bleep" noises in my head while working on these.  :)
