Hot Foiling Platforms - Top Tips for avoiding wasting foil and card

Here I'm sharing my top tips - things I do whenever I'm using my hot foiling platform - to make sure I don't waste card/paper, foil and time by having to take 2nd or even 3rd attempts at getting my foiling perfect. I use my hot foiling platform (GoPress & Foil) with nearly every card I make - so these are techniques I use all the time.
In my demonstration I'm using a Spellbinders Glimmer plate set "A Little Birdie".
