To create this card, I used the Man Cave Paper Pad with the Imperial Storyboard Backdrop Die.

On a plain piece of white cardstock, I used some Heffy Memo Tape to mask off the top half of the card. I ink blended Catherine Pooler’s Wintergreen ink. Then, I removed the Heffy Memo Tape and ink blended the bottom half of the card. I stamped my sentiments – one from the Koality Hugs stamp set and one from the PRESS Stamp and Die Bundle.

I also grabbed my “Hey” Heffy Cuts die and my Catherine Pooler Coral Cabana and Do-Si-Do inks. I cut one of each color.

Next, I stamped all of my images from the Koality Hugs stamp set and colored them with Copic markers. Then, I die cut them out using the coordinating dies.

Now, I can make the card light up! I poked a hole through my koala where I wanted him to light up. Then, I placed him on the card where he’ll chill permanently. I, then, made a mark where the light should go.

Then, I used double sided tape to adhere my Pear Blossom Press One Light where my pencil mark was. Then, I used the World’s Best Foam Tape all over the card base. This tape is the same depth as the EZ-Lights battery component. (This will keep the light from sticking out.)

Then, I assembled the rest of the card using liquid glue and 3D foam squares.
