Hi Everyone,
For today's card Ih ave used Electronics from Chibitronics to light up the Ferris wheel from Lawn Fawn.
Ingredients
Stamp Set: Wheely Great Day
Medium: Copic Markers
Sentiment: Included in stamp set
Electronics: Chibitronics Craft with Light Kit
Card stock: X-Press It Blending Card
Ink: Paper Rose Premium Black
Background: Distress Oxide Ink (Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch) & Catherine Pooler Ink (Lime Rickety & Grass Skirt)
Other: Sakura White Gelly Roll Pen, Shimmer Pen, Glossy Accents
Method
1. Create Background & Colour Images
I have created the background using Distress Oxide Inks and Blending Brushes. The Hills (Grass) are a die cut and adhered to the card using liquid glue.
I have also stamped the images onto X-Press It Blending Card and coloured them with Copic Markers. I fussy cut them.
2. Circuit
I have stamped the image onto another piece of white card.
This is exactly the same as the card front. This allows me to easily map the circuit
I have drawn the circuit in pencil, just so I know exactly where the circuit will go.
3. Completing the Circuit
I have used the Chibitronics 'Craft with Light Kit' to complete the circuit.
I love this kit, exactly what you need all in one place/Kit!
4. Adhere card front
Attach the card front to the base.
for this, I have used magnets so the circuit can be shown easily, however you can use foam tape.
5. Let's light this card up!!!
I have used the 2016 battery included in the kit.
Press the battery holder to light up the card (I will add a 'press here' stamp).
The positive will connect with the battery allowing the lights to shine.
I hope I have inspired you to give a light up card a go.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
A full tutorial showing the making of this circuit is available on the Chibitronics YouTube Channel.
Until next time
Melissa
