My nephew celebrated an 8th birthday this weekend. His party theme were Minions from Despicable Me. I love the minions! So do all three of my nephews too.
His grandma, Claire, made him a perfectly themed minion card herself by hand!
I like this minion image! (In fact, I use it as an avatar on Two Peas in a Bucket.) Claire perfectly matched the minion colours and put a "D" for David where the G for Gru would normally appear. She also used embroidery floss or crochet thread for the hair and the googly eyes were a great choice! Super cute.
For my minion themed card, I used an image very similar to the one my sister-in-law used on the birthday invitation.
I printed it on cardstock from the computer (same with the sentiment). I coloured it with Copic markers and cut it out. The dump truck is from a stamp set by Close to My Heart called fast and furious. David's favourite colour is green which is why both Claire and I included it in our card backgrounds.
My sister-in-law always gets fun themed decorations and cakes. Here's a picture of the birthday cake this year which are scenes based on Despicable Me 2.
I composed a poem for the 8-year old birthday boy inside my card. It could be changed to work for an 8-year old girl too.

How’d you get so sweet and charming?
My gosh, it must be fate.
