How to make light up skeleton shaker card.

Hi, crafty friends!

This is Eiko and I make light up skeleton shaker card.

When you push the switch, the fireflies glow.

I will make the parts referring to the picture below.

• Die cut pattern paper with star frame die.
• Die cut foam sheet with star frame die.
• Die cut acetate sheet with large star die.
• Die cut light green paper with small star die.
• Stamp the sentiment onto light green parts.
• Die cut foam sheet with small star die.
• Place the battery on the small star foam sheet and trace the outline and cut out with a craft knife.
• Switch part.

• Stamp the fireflies onto white cardstock.
• Color the fireflies with Copic markers.
• Cut out the fireflies’ butts with a craft knife.
• Adhere vellum paper on the back of the butts.
• Apply double-sided tape on the back of the fireflies.
• Die cut the fireflies with coordinating die.

Cut the Chibitronics.

I will explain how to cut using this model of Chibitronics.

• Clean off the adhesive on the back of the Chibitronics.
• Write the position of the LED and resistor.
• Draw the cut line.
• Leave one of the two circuits connected to the positive electrode.
• Cut along the line with scissors.

The making video is here.

Cut the real Chibitronics.

• Make a hole with a needle in the electrode.
• Pass the conductive thread through the hole.
• Tie the thread.

Adhere the finished part on firefly part.

• Put the positive side thread upwards.
• Put the negative side thread downward.
• Adhere the conductive fabric tape on the tie.
• Adhere another firefly part.
• Make the same three.

• Adhere the star frame foam sheet on the acetate sheet with glue.
• Adhere the light green star outside the bottom of the acetate star.
• Adhere the little star foam sheet inside the bottom of the acetate star.
• Adhere the switch part on the center of the little star foam sheet.
• Adhere the copper tape on the star frame.
• Adhere firefly parts on the frame using conductive fabric tape.

Put the Scotch tape on the thread so that the thread does not touch the side of the battery.

• Adhere the small star foam sheet on the switch using glue.
• Adhere another foam frame on the foam frame using glue.
• Insert rhinestones.
• Adhere the acetate sheet on the foam frame.
• Adhere the star frame and star part on the acetate sheet.

I finished it!
