How to make light up Halloween tag.

Hi crafty friends!

Today I make light up Halloween tag using Chibitronics and Tim Holtz stamps and dies. This time I used the Power Pack of Pearblossom Press, so it was super easy to create a glowing tag.


When you push the candle and witch hat, the windows, pumpkin and ghost eyes glow.


The Power Pack is a battery holder and button switch that allows you to quickly and easily create light up cards without having to build your own switch.
Pearblossom Press sells Power Pack Kit with white Chibitronics LED sticker and copper tape, but this time I want to use the yellow LED, so I use a single Power Pack.


What you need to make a light up card is like this.
Chibitronics Red, Yellow, Blue MegaPack
5mm wide Copper Tape
Pearblossom Press Power Pack


I'm using these stamps and dies.
Tim Holtz Frightful Things die


Tim Holtz Ghost Town die


Tim Holtz Regions Beyond die


Tim Holtz Tag Collection die


Tim Holtz Mini Halloween 4 (CMS198)


Tim Holtz Seasonal Catalog 1 stamp (CMS174)


Tim Holtz Halloween Cutouts stamp (CMS139)


I'm using these papers.
Ranger Mixed Media Cardstock




First I made Halloween pattern paper using Tim Holtz stamps and inks.
Stamp randomly large Halloween background (CMS174), spiderweb and spider(CMS139), small script (CMS198) with shadow grey, watering can and coffee Archival Ink respectively.



I'm using these Archival Inks.
Archival Ink shadow grey, watering can, coffee



Add color with carved pumpkin, crushed olive, squeezed lemonade, milled lavender Distress Marker.



Color the paper with dried marigold, milled lavender, old paper, black soot Distress Ink.


Spritz the paper with tarnished brass and brushed pewter Distress Mica Sprays



Cut two pieces of pattern paper using a large tag die. Cut plain paper and 3mm thick foam sheets. Color the entire edge of the plane tag with black soot Distress Ink.


Die cut the Classic Kraft paper with ghost, moon, skull, pumpkin, tree, house and candle die. Then color these with Alcohol Pearl.


I'm using deception, mineral, alchemy, villainous, splendor, smolder Alcohol Pearl.


Stick the Design Tape randomly on the patterned tag. Place the motifs on it and cut out the windows and pumpkin face.


Put the decorated tag on the plane tag, mark the position of the LED and Power Pack.


Make the circuit. Mark the position of the Chibitronics and the Power Pack. Draw the circuit with a pencil.


Stick the copper tape on the pre-drawn path.


Apply strong adhesive tape to back of Power Pack (apply only over logo area, avoid getting adhesive near the silver tabs, as it may not allow electricity to flow between your circuit path and the Power Pack).


Adhere Power Pack to tag with positive and negative tabs correctly lined up.


Stick the copper tape on the silver tab of Power Pack to the copper tape circuit path. Stick yellow LED sticker on top of the copper tape.


Stick short copper tape on the edges of the LED to reinforce. Push button on Power Pack to test lights.


Assemble the tag. Stick the vellum behind the decorated tag.


Stick the foam sheet tag on the circuit tag.


Stick another patterned tag behind the circuit tag.


Stick the decorated tag on the foam sheet tag.
Finished! When you push the candle, the windows and pumpkin face glow.




I make one more tag using effects Add-on sticker. What you need to make a light up card is like this.
