HOW TO DIECUT FOAM???? Most Asked Question recently!!!

[@ScrapDiva29]

Hello crafty friends!! Check the description box for product information!! I tried to leave a link for everything!! Thanks 💜🤗💜

[@lucyorta3998]

OMG!!! I was just going to order .125 double sided tape for shakers but foam is the way to go. Less messy and cut perfectly. I just started watching you about three months ago. I’ve purchased about 15 dies and am ready to start making stuff. Your items are so beautiful. Thank you.

[@buttermoment2748]

Love this Erica .... big thumbs up. I found it easier just to adhere the Glitter faux leather to the foam before running it through the die machine, this made it less fiddly for me. It worked on both the big shot and the Gemini. I think because it's spongy, it gets pressed down when passing through the machines, so is not so thick. Makes lovely cuts. I will make a few and set them aside for fast projects. Thanks for always sharing your lovely projects, which are always so fun!

[@lisaraper8053]

Thank you for your response. I was just asking myself “I wonder what the Gemini would do to the foam?” If the added pressure would flatten it out? I too wondered why not adhere them together first? You answered both of my questions. Thank you again!

[@stephanies6725]

Thank you so much Erica! I was one of those that asked about your foam, as mine flattens out when I cut it. I will check out the etsy shop. Thank you again! You are so sweet!

First, I’d like to say thank you for this tutorial, it was a big help since I’ve not made a shaker card yet, but really want to. I know I have the stuff to make a shaker card with all straight edges, but I’d really like to make ones like we’ve all seen, your unicorn for example. I went to the link you provided and was going to put an order in when I realized they were charging more than half of what I had wanted to purchase. I’m going to have to go back to the drawing board to find a store that will suit me better. I don’t know if it’s because of living in Alaska they are charging so much, or it’s business as usual for them concerning all states. Foam does not weigh that much, and it’s not that difficult to package it for the mail and still be able to keep it light. I really do appreciate you sharing though, and I hope others can get better deals with the states they live in.

Thanks for your share today. I know 3 years ago but new to me. I just bought the new glitter foam Spellbinder is selling so hope to skip the step of adding glitter to the top of the foam. I'm looking forward to using your tips for the plain foam too. I do have plain as will. I planned on not being able to do intricate dies but you showed it can be done. ONE PASS. So I have both Spellbinder Platinum machines large and P6. And should get similar results. I know machines can vary a wee bit. My two machines vary between them. Anyway the one thing I did take home today that might not be obvious as it was to me is your quick example of using the unicorn die as a shaker card. Of course you would slip in the clear window between the glitter card stock and the foam and if you use glitter foam that's not going to have that ability. So I have a bear shaker card and planned on making a shaker card using the glitter brown from Spellbinders and oh no now I'll have to think about this a few days. Anyway thank you for your great show and tell shares today. Most helpful and will guide me towards success with foam. And also knowing to search for 3ml thick foam in future will be helpful as not everyone tells you this info.

I have been a subscriber for a little while but just this week I have really started to binge watch your videos. I am picking up some really good product sources as well as learning some great tips and tricks! I really appreciate you taking the time to make the videos to teach others!

[@ScrapDiva29]

Thank you so much!! Happy New Year!!

[@celiajuana7859]

Good Day ​@@ScrapDiva29may I ask what tool did you use for dye cut?, is it mini dye cut machine?_If yes, what model? Where did you buy and how much it cost? Thank you in advance.

[@craftsbypwilli2664]

Thanks Erica! Just ordered the one with the sticky backing. Big thumbs up 😊

[@donajean33]

I’m always so late! Grrr on me! I’m so happy I found you and this video! I will be ordering foam tomorrow & doing this as soon as I get it! Your awesome!❤ oh nooooo! That Wandyfoam shop has closed! Boooo! Well I’ll try to find some. If you have a new place I’ll try to find your video on it!

[@isamonaa]

I’ve always wondered about diecutting foam!! There’s not a lot of videos about it, so Thank you thannkkk you! 💛

[@joanlarock1350]

Thank you, so much for sharing your trade secrets. I've tried cutting foam, and it flattens out. Of course, I'm trying the foam from the local craft stores, and it is not 3mm closed cell foam. I can't wait to give this a try. Again, thanks so much!

[@Taitcreates639]

Great tut oriel. I needed this one. So nervous about making shaker cards. This looks like even I can make a shaker card. Tfs. Blessings.

[@laurenbutler3452]

Awesome tutorial! I remember you taught us along time ago how to cut foam shapes...the key 🔑 was one pass only through your die cutting machine. Now I know where to but the 3 mm foam!

[@ScrapDiva29]

yesss!!!! THANK YOU!!

[@joyelleforjesus]

@@ScrapDiva29 thank you so much for the tutorial. I am afraid to cut foam with my spellbinder because it feels like I’m having to force it. Worried I might break something. I am using the standard plates...and actually the hobby lobby foam to cut out circle dies. That is a thinner foam than what you’re using, but feels like I could break my spellbinder if I do it. Hints?

[@PinkCraftyWorld]

Thanks Erica!! Even though I never ask I have struggled before with foams but this is such a great info you share with us. You are great thank you so much. 🤗 💕

[@dmbenjiwolf]

Awesome video -- I checked out Wandy == prices for foam are great but the shipping is a killer. I'll keep looking. Great ideas on here -- can't wait to try them out!

[@strawberrycream39Jen]

Thank you Erica! I always take your advice when I’m cutting out foam, to only run it once through my machine. It works great! I’m going to check out that Etsy shop! TFS xo Jen

[@pattilee9716]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have passed this info to my other crafty friends! Crafter's rule!!!!

[@christinebean7932]

Ooo die cutting. Your projects are so pretty. Even spider web😊. I am definitely in the wrong video, i will have to come back here for your craft Id like to do this to😊. I am here as i cut my foam sports mat so well and easy I didn't realize i had cut them right through box as i was unboxing.😮I bought these mats to put under my grandkids pool i got them , so the pool will hopefully last the rest of summer. We are having a heat wave 117° record heat😢. Please could someone tell me what glue to glue the gashes back together with? Thank you so much in advance. ❤

[@KarinaCWestfall]

Thanks so much for the information and for showing us how you cut out your foam!!

[@karmadown5520]

I've subscribed to your esteemed channel because I'm interested in purchasing a die cutting machine, but I'm not sure which one to purchase. Would you kindly please tell me which model you're using? I initially want to cut out foam words and shapes, before moving on to other magical creations? :) x

[@Fit_Kitty]

Thank you for sharing this, Erica! Your die cuts always look amazing!

[@cbordes1]

This was so very helpful. Thanks a million times.

[@RosasCreativeWay]

open Erica, I love this. I use the cheap foam from Micheals 2mm . But I hate that it stretches, I will give this one a try. Also, sometime it does not cut all the way thru and I have to run it thru my machine a second time. Can I ask, have you used this foam with the sizzix big shot? If so, does it cut clean like you demonstrated on this video. Thanks in advance.

[@ScrapDiva29]

Yes, you can use it with Sizzix big shot too!! Hugs, Erica

[@cathygrant6838]

thanks for the info about purchasing the foam, and good quality it looks like from your work. (was a bit surprised by the shipping cost though)

Hi Please excuse me for being stupid, but why can we not glue the glitter to the foam before putting it through the machine ?

[@ranndyer4607]

Thank you for your videos. They are very informative.

[@michaelbevans4212]

so that is why i could not find it so where do you buy your 3mm form now

Is it okay if you're going to put more than one foam or multiple paper at a time if you die cut? Easier to have more products instead of only having one piece.

[@ameliab7245]

What creative projects can those small left over pieces of foam be used for?

Amelia B They can always be cut into smaller bits to be used as foam pop dots to give dimension for other ephemera
