3 Ways to Foil Die Cut

[@sacconner]

I really love the simplicity of these cards. They are beautiful Jennifer. Thanks for sharing three different ways to do this process.

[@tremmacy]

Hi Jennifer, I love the deco foil directly on the card technique you showed.....so beautiful! I have definitely put this all on my wish list at SSS!

[@janechristensen2778]

I have seen the foil technique on HSN years ago. In fact that episode is still on You Tube. They were promoting the Purple Cow Laminator. You have great a demo and the way you explain everything .... you are really good. Thanks for all the info!

[@deniseward6207]

The foil flower is SO lovely! Makes me want both the die cut and the foil! 😊

[@ShemaineSmith]

You are amazing Jennifer! Thanks for working so hard to figure out this technique for us all!

[@HandmadeByLinanne]

Thanks Jennifer, the foil is just beautiful. I really like the opal on white, too.

[@judyestrada1446]

Very Nice foiling on cards, Jennifer. Thank you for sharing this video with us.

[@cindihall1466]

OMG, so cool. I never would have thought of adding the foil on the die cuts Jennifer! Great job on the video.

[@slyseyes]

Thank you for continually providing new crafting tips for us. I can't wait to try this.

[@maggiebaxter610]

Hi Jennifer ~ I wish I'd seen this video before Santa brought me a Minc....I already had a laminator. Your videos are always full of fun tips and techniques. Thanks for sharing.

[@sandybb36]

that is totally awesome; full black printed sheet! Great idea

[@loceanjo]

I don;t have a laminator - would an iron work?

[@roidroid]

If you don't have a laminator, i bet a clothes iron would work just as well. Use a layer of paper or something so it doesn't stick to the iron, and apply a lot of pressure. They use a similar technique to make prototype circuit boards: Print the circuit design onto paper with a laser-printer, then use an iron to stick it to the copper of an unprocessed circuitboard PCB. The ink then protects the underlying copper from the acid bath step, thus leaving the resulting PCB with just the copper traces that the ink protected. Laser printer ink is just plastic, it melts onto the paper, with heat and pressure it can be re-melted so it's sticky and will grab foil (like you're doing in this video).

[@CardsbyMaaike]

love it! i like the diecuts cos you could do a simple frame and then inlay foiled petals in different shades of colour

[@jeanbullock3076]

Loved this video. Dying to try out these techniques.

[@Sunnysatellite]

Hi! thank you so much for video))) Does anyone know if there is a some difference between this laminator and mink? The same functions?

[@christabeard5128]

Awesome...love the different techniques.

[@TheUmmeshehryar]

Absolutely beautiful 👌 Jennifer you are soooo mind blowingly creative MAA SHAA ALLAH.

[@MrsKCreations]

I LOVE these techniques! I've been seeing decofoil used on many projects and always wondered how it was done. TFS! Now I got to go order some Decofoil. :)

[@lovesweetpeas47]

Could you use a hot iron if you don't have a laminator.

[@shellyburke1501]

Brilliant video

[@marthaanderson8695]

These ideas are genius! Thanks for posting this video!

[@beauti60]

Thank you for showing you brilliant work

[@donnadacy5876]

Is there a way to use foil without a laminator? These are beautiful and the foil adds so much. Love these cards. TFS

[@khricket]

***** try using scrap perfect glue. I use a similar type glue to put foil on my nails, so I assume that would work.

[@roidroid]

+Donna Dacy yes the heat from a clothes iron should work if you don't have a laminator (but use a layer of paper to protect the iron from things sticking to it), use plenty of pressure.

[@craftycreationsbyniki]

I love this idea with the foil. But I was wondering can this be done with any laminator or only with the one you are using? Also can you use the foil with vellum putting the color side down so you get this nice soft foil look to the vellum? Thank so much for sharing.

[@BirdOfParadise777]

+Elizabeth Nicole Smith (Crafty Creations by NIki) I realized that I was ending up with the same questions as many other commenters and it would do me no good to ask them all again. Did you ever get an answer? thanks:)

[@craftycreationsbyniki]

+BirdOfParadise777 I never did get an answer to any of my questions.

[@BirdOfParadise777]

They sure seem like simple questions. I love the look of vellum and would love to make candle holders for the battery operated tea lights. They would look beautiful, lit or not. :)

[@roidroid]

It should work with any laminator (or even a clothes iron), all you need is pressure and heat. The ink from a laser-printer is essentially just plastic melted onto the paper, the goal is to re-melt it.

Great video.where do I find the download for the black PDF?

[@suem3596]

I found you could just take a price of black cardstock & copy it on a laser printer. Take da...toner paper!

[@rebeccasuraci7666]

in all my recent card making (first attempts at embossing and using foam for shaker windows) im having issues with adhesive. tombow is too messy/puckers paper, adhesive runners aren't good for thin areas- and lets face it run out FAR too quick. double stick tape are also too thick for thin die spaces like the lines of these roses and letters. what are you using? is there some sort of super strong glue stick that is as thin as a ball point pen????

[@melissaedwards7431]

+Rebecca Suraci I use a Xyron machine. I run very fine die cut workds through it and it is super sticky. Use a 40% off coupon from Michaels or Hobby Lobby. Good luck!

[@maggiebaxter610]

+Rebecca Suraci Hi Rebecca ~ Another option is to use Ranger Multi Medium Matte. It has a VERY strong hold, dries clear and has a pretty narrow tip. Little dabs of that work well on most anything I've tried it on and I've been making cards for many years. It's available on Amazon and several online craft shops. Hope this helps.

[@prettypaperthings]

zig two way glue pen. just a dot

[@salsita2]

Can I use the adhesive paper to cut images on my Cricut Explore and then laminate them? I don't own many dies. Thanks for the video - very informative!

[@BirdOfParadise777]

+salsita2 I'm disappointed that she didn't answer this question! Wonder why not?

[@katietrejo9084]

Yes you can

[@BirdOfParadise777]

Thank you:)

[@SouthernAngelsStamping]

Very pretty but I don't have a laminator to do that but I love the foils!

[@jeanieferretti4203]

I guess foiling is the next hot trend. Thanks for the great cards!

[@motherofz2005]

Wondering if foil wrapping paper would work with this technique.

[@sueintveld3719]

You just may have turned me into a "foiler". What great techniques! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@DenisePoole-Closet-Crafts]

Excellent video so very helpful Thank you 😀🌲🌟

[@Sotolivas]

A technique very beautiful.THANK YOU

[@tishw53]

Wow great must try this.

[@suzannetoms3086]

[@gbdknv4027]

Hello! Enjoy your videos! Let's talk about fabric. Do you have a video? I want to print on ribbon. Please let me know! Katherine

[@1bjwlsn]

Great tutorial.

[@beauti60]

brilliant thank you for sharing.

[@karlatriplett9213]

[@BirdOfParadise777]

Very Cool! :)

[@jintyoo7]

Beautiful - thank you ;-)

[@nadiaoliva2819]

No sé por qué no se me ocurrió hacerlo yo? Jajajaja hermoso

[@SimonSaysStamp]

¡Ahora lo sabes!

[@erikaelisa30]

Or if you don't have a laser printer. Bring it to your job make copies for free!😁

[@melimel9265]

best idea yet. lov it. lol

[@JanScholl]

Of course-I just donated my heat laminator to Goodwill. I hated the smell of it. It made me gag. I bought a non heat laminator for the little time I actually would need it. Of course.

[@mpbailey18]

Isn't there another way to use foil without buying, yet again, another machine? Seems we did foiling years ago with some sticky type embossing powder....

[@prettypaperthings]

that is good for a stamp. but for you own printed images the laminator is great. mine was under 20 dollars. and I can also now laminate for cheap. you can try and iron, I haven't tried it

[@prettypaperthings]

i also have use glue like the nuvo or zig 2 way pen. put it on the stamp., put the foil on then I run it through my big shot or big kick. and you can foil that way.

[@prettypaperthings]

+torresxrocks or tape like scor tape

[@margiebush6335]

A M A Z I N G. and hot-diggity

[@Happybidr]

You talk so fast I would have to watch this several times before I understood the directions well enough to repeat them. It is kind of frustrating. It would help if you put words on the screen to emphasize the key points. Sometimes less is more and you put in so many details that are nice but maybe if they were added at the end of each one. Just focus on the key steps. A good review of instructional design would improve these videos. I finally turned the sound off and understood it a lot better.
