Best Dad Circuitry Light Up Card

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Today I'm over on the Chibitronics blog sharing my latest light up card creation featuring some amazing Chibitronics products!

Here is the front of my card.  This card panel features the Sizzix "Circuit" Embossing Folder, the "Best Word Die" by Catherine Pooler in "samba"ink and the "Little Letters Dies" by My Favorite Things and lots of fun Ranger Distress Oxide inks.

Once my card front was designed I can create the circuit underneath.

First I map everything out my card base.  I inked and embossed the embossing folder again.  This allows me to more easily position my LED Light Stickers.

I mapped out the location of my battery housing, the placement of all my light stickers and then I connected everything to complete the circuits.

Next I added all of my Copper Tape lines first. Typically I start with my negative line of tape so I can run it underneath my batteries.  Next I made my battery housing to trap my batteries in and build my little flap (clear acetate) over the positive side of the batteries.  I added all of my light stickers (Blue, Red, Green & Orange stickers) to my circuit and using some Fabric Tape Patched to ensure all the breaks in my Copper Tape were secure and complete.

And now here is my lit up card...

I just the way it turned out.  I know my husband, an electrician, will love it!

Have a great rest of the week!
