Here's a card I made last weekend at the Happy Little Stampers craft retreat with Kylie showing us how to make light-up cards and we had a lot of fun.
The tree stamp was inked with distress markers misted with water a few times in different shades of green and highlighted with Wink of Stella. When the sentiment is pressed, the top of the tree lights up (inset photo). It's a pity the sparkle and the light don't show up very well in the photo.
So sorry I am a bit behind with my commenting at the moment ... trying to catch up!
Playing along at five challenges:

I wondered how many of us 'Retreaters' would enter this week. Such a sweet design. :)
very peaceful scene, must be bliss out there ;-) Thank you for playing AAA cards
A wonderful card Sue, I love the way that the top of the tree lights up.

Enjoy your day.

How fun. Lovely light up card perfect for our challenge. Thank you for joining us this week at Less is More.
Fabulous card Sue. The light at the top of the tree looks like a twinkling star. Bet you had a great time with Kylie (I know I did in Manchester). Thanks so much for for sharing this with us at Less is More xx
Putting Kylie’s electrics lesson to good use I see. Works really well for the tree top star. Thanks for linking up at AAA Cards, HLS Christmas and Uniko.
What a great card. I love the light up part of it. That is a fun idea.
Hi Sue, what a marvellous idea, to have the top of the tree light up! I love it! Great clean and simple design with the tree and those birds. Having the stitching around the perimeter of your layer dresses the card up while staying CAS. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
And it's a fab make, what a fun weekend it was too, good to meet you

What a beautiful and fun holiday card, Sue! Love the light-up interactive element! It must be much more beautiful in real life! Hideko xx
Sorry Sue, I was SURE I'd left a comment yesterday but can't see it. Fab make for the LIM challenge with your light up tree

What an amazing card, Sue! I can see the light! Beautiful! Kisses, my friend.
I love your light up tree design card Sue. The design is just right and the colours are so well blended. Glad you included the inset photo of the tree top lighting up. What a great surprise. Thanks so much for sharing it with us at the Watercooler Wednesday Anything Goes challenge this week.

Great work - this is simply lovely, and I love the little light on top of the tree! xx
