How to make light up snow globe tags

Hi, crafty friends!

Today I make light up snow globe tags using Chibitronics and Papertreyink's Tinsel & Tags Kit.
This kit is a very popular limited kit released in 2014.
If you could get it, try making a glowing tag!



When I pull the pull tab, the stars flash and the windows glow.


I'm using these dies and stamps.
