You Warm My Heart Box Supplies:- Chibitronics Sticker Starter Kit

Step 1: Cut all pieces needed and emboss using the Sizzix Texture fade. I used my Cricut Explore.
Step 2: Assemble box as per instructions. Yep, didn't follow the instructions well, so my box has a few irregularities.
Step 3: This was the fun part. Build your circuit. Remember when I told you to practice before trying to lay out your circuit on the finished project? Making turns with the copper tape takes a bit of practice. My first circuit did not look this pretty. The glitter paper and the copper tape did not play nicely. lolStep 4: Add additional LED lights as desired. I decided to add a few more to give the fire a nice glow. Seriously, how cool is that? The circuits are super easy to build. This one is in parallel, but I may try a series next.
Here is the box in a darkened room....look at the glow from the fire! I can't wait to see what else I can light up. Definitely thinking a camera....with a switch....so I can make it flash! Oh, and a new baby card (have a girlfriend about to be a grandma)....twinkling stars? The possibilities are endless.
Thanks for stopping by.
Hugs.
