A white LED will require more than 3V.

I'm finding a lot of problems and they stem from what I want to what is a reality. I'm going to take a step back and attempt to rethink this out.

 

I sensed a disturbance in the farce, so her I am. Use a CMOS IC for minimum current requirements. Are you willing to audition components like capacitors? By audition I mean try something to see if it works. you can post ideas up an have me and the forum critique it. I'll be gentile, I promise, Can't speak for anyone else, but part of my job here is to enforce civility.

As for schematics hand draw them neatly, then post a cellphone picture. If drawing a schematic as an image is intimidating.
