All that information and yet no actual answer as to what weight/gsm we should be looking for! That's what I kept waiting for...but nope. I knew it was confusing before watching most of this...still confused. Oh, well, will stick with what I've been using for years and not worry about it!~

Loved this video concept/format. Love anything technical. Want more. Can we have another video showing different foils and paper combos; more demos on tried and true combos that work consistently, but also those that might be a bit tweaky, and tips/learning curve hints to make them work?

A question for a future episode? What are the best mediums for coloring on the synthetic paper designed for foiling? TBH I’ve done zero testing myself.
@Yana.Smakula

Alcohol mediums would be best. Like alcohol inks and alcohol markers

Thanks for doing this series! I’m lucky enough to be able to spend the winters in the warm California desert and summers in Pacific NW. Two VERY different environments for paper crafting. In the damp north - top folding cards just don’t work unless both front & inside panels are reinforced with another panel of cardstock essentially making the paper close to 200 lb equivalent. In the desert 80 lb card holds up just fine.

Awww, thank you so much! Appreciate your feedback ❤️ the best medium would be alcohol markers. Although they behave very differently on synthetic paper compared to regular cardstock

This is a brilliant format, thank you for doing these! I look forward to the next episodes. I do have one issue tough: one of the main things that have kept me from throwing Glimmer machine is that - to me- it seems to have an absolutely horrible impact on the environment: the foil is plastic, it comes on a plastic roll and is packaged in plastic. And now you tell us the ideal paper is, in effect, plastic, too?! This means that we put an enormous amount of practically non-degradable (ever!) waste into our environment. (Same as with our beloved foam tape and babywipes btw). I love crafting and the industry and Spellbinders products - but I think we as crafters (and craft companies!) owe it to,our kids and grandkids and the following generations to do better!

Thank you Yana and Denzel. It. Was great to know how well designed the Scout is. She really is cute!! Yana, I was hoping wish you would have gone into the sandwiches for embossing with folders and dies.. I think I saw a silicone mat in the bundle of plates you showed us. I have a 5yr old Platinum Six, and finding the right embossing sandwich is a challenge sometimes. But I LOVE my six. It is my work horse! I know I will the Scout as well!

The Scout comes with the Universal Plates System, it was released last year and it is exactly that - makes using products from other companies a much easier task. There is a version for Platinum 6 and even for the original Platinum ❤️

Really love this series … i like myth busters & really appreciate the technical side because of my science background … there is a lot of fun in understanding how to expand your favourite hobby with a little extra knowledge …. I would describe my passion for paper crafts being a mixture of history, engineering, science & art (and geography coz it’s worldwide) … hard to find another hobby that combines all these …

Yana and Denzil, thank you for this very informative episode on paper crafting myth busters, it is extremely helpful to me as I am only 2 years into my crafting journey. That said, I have quickly learned that paper quality matters and makes a difference in the results that I get. Paper truly matters! Thank you for sharing such wonderful knowledge. In a sea of disinformation and misinformation on this wonderful tool we call "the internet" good and informative content like what you've shared here in this episode is refreshing and welcomed!
