Hi everyone! It's Jessica here. Today's project is for all the crafty beginners who would like to try making interactive light up cards. Interactive cards might seem intimidating at first, but they are so fun and easy to make once you give it a try!
Check out this step-by-step tutorial on how to create your very first light up card. You don't need a lot of supplies to follow along. Just choose a stamp set and some patterned paper. I'm using Stampin' Up's Flight of Fancy stamps today. The images are adorable and pairs with LED lights perfectly.
It's a really short and simple circuit. The only trick is to connect the positive side of the battery to the positive side of the Chibitronics LED light sticker, and vice versa.
You can also purchase my handmade card kit (stamps plus supplies for 6 cards) and follow the step-by-step video. The kit includes the Flight of Fancy stamp set, 6 pre-scored card bases with matching envelopes and white card inserts, patterned paper for 6 cards, copper tape and 3 LED light stickers (red, blue, yellow), gold thread and rhinestone embellishments.
Here's a different card idea without the Chibitronics lights as well. Just a simple stamp and paper card.
If you have never tried making light up cards before, I hope you'll feel inspired to give it a try!
