Happy Holidays Light Up Card: Video Tutorial

Hello crafty friends, In my blog post today I am sharing the video tutorial on how I created this super cute and festive interactive card that lights up using products from Pear Blossom Press and Pixi Dust Designs! I also shared some photos of the project in the post as well.

Happy Holidays Light Up Card:

I am not going to lie I put off doing this project for weeks when it was assigned to me for a collaboration hop between Pixi Dust Designs & Pear Blossom Press! I was so intimidated by the supplies I was assigned. I just put it off and put it off until I couldn't put it off any longer. And after working with the products I don't know what I was thinking. It was so stinking easy to make.

So If you are ever intimidated by supplies you may have purchased (or in my case assigned to use) I would highly suggest just jumping in and playing with them. You just may be surprised at how easy they are to use. For example I have used Pear Blossom Press's other lights in the past but felt intimidated by them as well. Interactive cards are just not my go to. But, once again once I played with them I felt more comfortable using them. With the EZ One Lights (if you follow the instructions as you see in the video I didn't read to begin with) they are super easy to work with.

The other thing that was intimidating to me was the Hexagon Nativity Ornament Dies from Pixi Dust Designs. Not because it was going to be hard to put together! I was struggling with how to use it and make it light up as well. So, instead of using it as intended I went outside the box and decided to make a focal element for a card instead.

As you can see the card turned out better than I could imagine. Once I just got out of my own way and sat down and just started playing with the products I came up with a card design and project I was super happy with.

So, if you ever find yourself in this situation I encourage you to just sit down and have a play with your products. You never know what you will come up with. This card is a prime example of just a little creative play time.
