Holiday Lights Hop with Pear Blossom Press

Hi there! Today I’m joining Pear Blossom Press for their Holiday Lights Hop and sharing a fun light-up card for the holidays using the EZ-Light!

Concord & 9th-Home for the Holidays, EZ-Light

I used the Home for the Holidays stamps & dies to create these adorable houses with Concord & 9th cardstock.

Concord & 9th-Home for the Holidays, EZ-Light

I placed one of the EZ-Lights behind the panel so that the lights lit up behind the windows in each house. I’ve never made a light-up card before, but it certainly won’t be my last. It was incredibly easy and is so fitting for holiday projects as well as all year round.

    Adorable card Laura!! Love the colors you picked for the houses! Lots of tedious work but so worth it! I have never made a card that lights up, but after all the great videos on the hop showing how…I think I could handle it!

    Wonderful, Laura! I have this house set and just may have to try this. I haven’t done a lighted one yet, either, so maybe this is the year. Take care and Merry Christmas!
