Welcome to my blog post for the Winnie and Walter and Chibitronic Blog Hop. I'm happy to be part of the hop as a member of the Chibitronic team.
As the temperatures climb here it is refreshing to work on a winter themed card. I love the cute critters in the stamp sets designed By Evelin T. For Winnie and Walter, for my card I used "Season's Tweetings with Evelin T. Designs".
When the recipient pulls the tab they see a sentiment and the lights turn. I used an effects sticker in my circuit so the lights blink on and off.
To help me build my circuit using an effects sticker I refer to the instructions found here.
The arrow on the top of my card reminds me where to line the circuit up when adherring it to the card front. I cut a slit in the circuit for my slider, the slider has copper tape on it that when pulled completes the circuit and the LED's light up.
For my card front I stamped the igloo and penguin on a piece of card stock. I stamped the penguin first masked it then stamped the igloo. I colored the images with pencil crayons (colored pencils) then fussy cut the image. the background was made by cutting a piece of masking paper to look like a snow bank then adhering it to a piece of card stock. I ink blended a couple shade of distress ink for the night sky. Keeping the mask in place I used the Winnie and Walter Stencil "Big Bang Sci-Fi Star Creative Screenings" to apply glitter paste. Once the paste was dry I adhered the igloo to the card. I used a piercing tool to poke holes in three of the lights on the igloo for the LED's to shine through. Once my card was all put together I added glossy accents on top of the lights to finish it off.
