Hi crafty friends!
This is Eiko and I make light up Noel tag using Chibitronics and Tim Holtz dies.
I used the reed switch and animating LED on this tag. When you move the magnet behind the bouquet motif closer to the switch, the switch turns on and the star fade to rainbow colors.
I will make the parts referring to the picture below.
- Die cut red plaid paper using Noel die.
- Die cut red woodgrain paper, kraft cardstock, white cardstock and 3mm thick foam sheet using Noel background die.
- Die cut red foil paper using bow die.
- Die cut color cardstock using pine sprigs, holly and berries dies.
- Die cut gold paper using star die.
- Small piece of vellum.
- Christmas mini flair.
- Neodymium magnet and washer
- Assemble the cover tag.
- Put the Noel and star parts on the Noel backgroud part and make a hole at the center of the star.
- Put the cover tag on white tag and mark the hole with a pencil.
- Draw the circuit with a pencil.
- I colored the positive side red and the negative side blue.
- Put the double-sided tape on the battery place.
- Stick the conductive fabric tape on the pre-drawn path.
- At the battery place, peel off the release paper, stick the negative side fabric tape, fold it back and cut it.
- Stick the positive side fabric tape.
- At the position of the battery leave the positive side fabric tape about 1 inch and cut it.
- Place the battery on the fabric tape with positive side facing up and stick the positive side fabric tape on the battery.
- Stick the reed switch on the conductive fabric tape using the short fabric tape.
- Stick the rainbow fade animating LED sticker on the mark.
- Stick the short fabric tape on the LED sticker to reinforce.
Stick a neodymium magnet to the back of the bouquet motif.
When you move the magnet closer to the reed switch, the switch turns on and the LED fade to rainbow colors.
Place the washer on the back of the cover panel next to the reed switch.
- Put the die cut foam sheet on the circuit tag base.
- Put the die cut kraft cardstock on the back of the circuit tag base.
- Put a small piece of vellum behind the hole in the center of the star.
Put the cover tag on the foam sheet.
When you move the magnet behind the bouquet motif closer to the switch, the switch turns on and the star fade to rainbow colors.
I finished it!
