How to Make a Light Up Halloween Card

September 19, 2026 by Heather Holbrook

How to Make a Light Up Halloween Card

This week on the Card Making blog is all about Ghosts, they appear to be the it thing for the Spooky Season this year. And what’s better than a handmade Ghost card, how about one that also lights up!? For the background of this fun interactive card Deborah created a spooky pattern by using spider web die cuts as stencils, adding sequin for some shimmer. On the back of that panel she applied tiny EZ-Lights and then she die cut three ghosts, placing them over the lights. She also added a stamped “press” for the button and a fun foiled Halloween sentiment.

Visit the Pear Blossom Press blog to watch her video tutorial.
