My Favorite Things/Chibi Lights Collaboration!


Hello friends!

Print

The My Favorite Things Design Team is sharing some super fun and creative projects featuring the Chibi Lights Starter Kit!  This is Day 1 of FOUR days of awesome Chibi Lights/My Favorite Things projects to come!  If you haven’t seen these amazing little kits, you’re in for a real treat!  I had a blast making this project, and can’t wait to share it with you!

Now before you get all worked up about using the Chibi Lights, I will tell you that I created a little video that is being shared over at the My Favorite Things Design Blog!  I share tips and tricks to help you in making your own Chibi Lights projects!  They’re super easy to work with, and result in an amazing wow factor that will blow your friends’ minds!!  Here’s what my project looks like all lit up!

I placed the battery connection in the lower left corner of my card.  My thought was that the recipient would grab the left corner when they  open it, resulting in lighting up the tent.  Surprise!!  I just giggle every single time that tent lights up.  It’s the ultimate in interactive cards, which of course just makes me giddy!

And here’s a still photo of what the circuit looks like “behind the scenes,” (as well as the page in the Chibi Lights booklet that shows how to create a “simple circuit.”  The booklet is included in the Chibi Lights Starter Kit, along with the copper tape, the batteries, and the lights!)  It ain’t pretty, but it’s functional!!

Again, I share the step-by-step instructions for creating this simple circuit in the video  being shared on the My Favorite Things Design Blog and on You Tube.  Please click on through to the My Favorite Things Design Blog to be linked to the other incredible projects that my sweet teammates have created!  I hope you love playing with them as much as we did!  All of the products that I used are linked below and can be found in the My Favorite Things Boutique!!

Thanks so much for stopping by today – I sure do appreciate it when you do!  I’ll be back soon with more crafty goodness!  Until then, have a great day!!
