Chibitronics ~ Light-Up Rainbow Birthday Greetings

What’s a birthday without a little extra sparkle and surprise? Today, I’m sharing a super fun and vibrant light-up birthday card featuring Chibitronics LED stickers and the Lawn Fawn's "Giant Outlined Happy Birthday: Portrait" die!


To create this bold and playful card, I started by backing the die-cut panel letters with some colorful patterned papers from Sunny Studio—the perfect way to bring that festive rainbow feel to life. Then, for an added wow-factor, I layered a funky cat’s eye semi-transparent plastic behind the whole die cut. This cool material helps diffuse the light and gives it a dreamy glow when lit up!

Of course, the magic happens when the card lights up! I used:

  • 3 Animating Rainbow Fade LED Light Stickers to create a soft, color-shifting glow across the panel.

  • 5 solid LED stickers in green, orange, yellow, pink, and red to brighten up specific letters and details.


All the lights were connected using Chibitronics Conductive Fabric Tape, and a simple battery mechanism powers the card with a press of the finger!

Whether you’re new to paper circuits or a light-up card pro, this project is a blast to make and guaranteed to bring smiles. Perfect for birthdays and celebrations where you want to stand out!
