Well Hey, Boo!
Today I have a special little card for you! Not only is this little pumpkin adorable, it is also interactive and lights up for the recipient. How fun is that?! I am so addicted to these new to me EZ-lights that I'm sure you will be seeing a lot more of these light-up cards in the future!
Here is how I made this card:
- Die-cut 2 HALF STRIPED COVER frames, one orange, and one purple.
- Rotate one Striped Cover over the other 90 degrees and glue together onto a white card panel.
- Die-cut the top, bottom, and frame pieces for the pumpkin using the SHAKER PUMPKIN DIES
- Glue the bottom of the pumpkin onto the center of the card panel.
- Punch a hole through both the card panel and the pumpkin base (somewhere where it won't be seen from the face openings.
- Add vellum behind the pumpkin face and add foam tape to the outer edges of the pumpkin's face.
- Thread the EZ-Light wire from behind the panel through the hole you punched through the panel.
- Tape down each EZ-Light so that the light is able to shine through the vellum areas of the pumpkin's face. ( I taped them behind the top orange pumpkin layer)
- Line up the pumpkin's face with the back layer and adhere them together with the foam tape.
- Glue down the pumpkin's frame around the pumpkin.
- Insert the battery and tape down the EZ-Light push button behind the area you want the recipient to push down on. Test the push area.
- Tape the excess wires to the pack of the card panel, leaving room along with the edges to add foam around the border.
- Attach to the card base.
- Die-cut the letters from glitter craft foam using the CHUNKY ALPHABET and arrange and press onto the card front.
- Instead of writing push or press on the area, I used the Miss You stamp from the SWEET HEART CANDY.
- To finish, embellish with your favorite bling. (I used RIPE PERSIMMON PEARLS and AMETHYST PEARLS).
Now let's see how cool it looks when you light it up!
I hope you were inspired by this fun Halloween Light Up Card. I'm already planning my next one, lol! Make sure you are following me on Instagram, I will post a quick video of the card coming together.
Thank you for stopping and until next time... Happy Crafting 👋
