(Off Season) Blinking LED Problems

I am having a problem with some LED's that I am using for a backlight (they draw less power for my project). The LED's are powered by a 5V regulator then into a 10 ohm resistor then paralleled together with a common ground. The LED's work fine for about seven hours then they begin to blink (fail). Any ideas or solutions?
