Introduction
Create a light-up card featuring a Halloween Cat! Just add two LEDs, a CR2032 battery, and some Maker Tape.
There's a full-color version as well as a black & white version that makes a great coloring activity.
You can make this project (and many more!) with our Paper Circuits Kit.

This paper circuits card is a great beginner project. Just follow the steps below to make your card.
-
Print out the full-color card, or print out the black and white card and color/decorate as desired.
-
Poke holes through the front of the card for the LED legs, then push the legs through the front.
-
Make note of where the positive and negative legs go. Polarity matters!
-
On the inside of the card, bend the LED legs down flat against the paper.
-
Add Maker Tape and a battery to complete your circuit.
-
Note: If you are using thicker paper (such as cardstock) we recommend using a large safety pin to poke the holes in the paper to put the LED legs through.
