Foiling part of a foil plate - using GoPress & Foil or Glimmer hot foiling platform

If you are new to hot foiling (hot foil stamping) I recommend you watch my Beginners Guide videos and practice foiling before trying this technique.
For this video I'm using some background hot foil plate/dies from both Spellbinders (Glimmer) and Crafters Companion (Gemini) background Foil Stamp die ranges. To foil just part of the plate I'm using shaped card shims to control where pressure is applied to transfer the foil, using either a GoPress & Foil or Spellbinders Glimmer machine.
I don't think this technique will work with a Gemini FoilPress.

Thank you Joanne for sharing this technique. Once you showed your paper shims it filled in the blank in my head on how to do partial foiling. The only thing I would do differently is to protect the background paper by making a mask with thin copy paper of the shape and place it over the background, then the foil, then the plate over the shims. Just a suggestion to minimize getting foil on the background. Again thank you for sharing...I learned something new!

That partial foil heart is gorgeous. I sure would like to be able to do that. Just live hot foiling

Cheers, Joanne! Always lovely to visit with you here. Every time I find myself being tempted to purchase the Crafter's Companion foil machine, I find you and fall in love all over again with my Go Press and Foil machine! Have a very Blessed and Magical day, petal! X

[@franhain7699]

makes total sense to me. Thanks Joanne.

[@Mavenhur]

Another genius idea! Thank you Joanne!

Sometimes that over foiling will come up with sticky tape - just dab, dab the area with the sticky tape - sometimes one dab is all you need and then sometimes it takes several dabs - just depends on how big your area is - practice on a scrap and see which sticky tape works best

[@AnotherJoUK]

Thanks for the tip :)

[@karenwalters2919]

You always have great ideas and suggestions . Thanking for sharing.

You always have good suggestions and ideas. Thank you for sharing!!!!

I watched your video on doing the heart. It is so wonderful to be able to foil just on the heart. I would like to know if you ever use shims when foiling? Is it better not to use them?

[@AnotherJoUK]

I nearly always use card shims when I'm foiling - have a look at my beginners guide videos.

Hi Joanne, love the script plate, could you let me know the name please

[@AnotherJoUK]

No - I'm not here to market any specific product.

[@rescuesandgooddeeds1849]

Beautiful work, can you please tell me the exact name of script plate. Thanks

[@AnotherJoUK]

The script plate is "Spellbinders Elegant Background Glorious Glimmer Hot Foil Classic Plates by Becca Feeken"

@@AnotherJoUK Thank you, I’m new to the crafting world, so I find myself looking for things that are no longer on the market lol. Thank you for getting back to me, and keep inspiring us with your lovely work 🖤

@@rescuesandgooddeeds1849 I try to do techniques in my videos rather than promoting specific foiling plates so that they can be used as inspiration for how to use new foiling plates as they come along.
