Today I am sharing a magical light up card using the brand new Pocket Enchantment stamp set from Kindred Stamps. I stamped the pocket toy images twice with alcohol marker friendly ink and colored them with OLO markers, focusing on warm golden tones for the princess gown and rich blues and browns for the prince. After coloring, I fussy cut the images and kept the overall design simple so the pocket scene could really shine as the focal point of the card.

To turn this into a light up card, I die cut a celestial patterned background and planned where I wanted the stars to glow. I poked holes for the LEDs, added vellum behind the openings to soften the light, and secured a twinkle light to the back of the panel, hiding the battery pack behind the toy button area so it stayed interactive and fun. I mounted the panel onto a top folding A2 card base with foam adhesive for dimension, then glued the characters into the scene so it looked like a magical dance moment frozen in time. I also created a second Pocket Enchantment card using the same stamp set with a different design and sentiment, and you can watch that full process in my members only video.
