I think I would fall out in the floor if I ever walked into your mind blowing stamp room! I understand that it is your job. But still it is a dream to many of us! Just a dream! You really are exceptional! Truly! You might even get tired of hearing that and become desensitized, but it is really an amazing gift you have been given. I’m sure it’s still work sometimes, but Jennifer you do such a wonderful job! Thank you for all you do for us out here! I am grateful! God bless you!

[@Cards4Cancer]

I can't tell you how much better I feel after watching this video and seeing you foil the shim that's on the hot plate. If even the craft maven JMc does it then I don't feel so embarrassed for doing it too. 🥰

[@kristinathompson4587]

Love these! Some really good ideas!

[@shraddhatefft7619]

A well timed video! I was just wondering yesterday if you could foil on vellum or acetate! Thank you for the tips!!! ❤️

[@lydiemonin977]

So marvelous Jennifer thank you so much for your video and sharing. My preference is the peonies shaker with acetate. Have a very good day

[@shellycarter155]

Oh! This is sooo cool! I can use my Tim Holtz dies using the black toner paper! I can foil and stamp over it and then cut with my matching dies! This will greatly expand the use of my stamps and dies, for sure! Thanks for your amazing ideas!

[@jennifermcguireink]

that would be great!

[@thediaryofbellerose]

BEAUTIFUL!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🦋

[@patriciascoble9680]

I'd love to get into your extra's draw. Oh what fun that would be.

[@Wendyrocler]

Sooo many great ideas! I am off to shop… 🥰

[@terrie1226]

I have the foil machine on my wish list but I'm wondering at my age if it is worth it....I do love the foiling look I guess I'll have to admire the foiling cards that you share with us.....well done Jennifer

[@paulienvandenbosch3857]

Wonderful cards Jennifer! I love the looks of foiling on the acetate. So classy. I am saving up, for getting the spellbinders foiling system. On your recommendation (a few years ago) I bought the platinum 6 and I just love it. I use it so often. And I have had my eye on the hot foil system, ever since you showed it in your video's. I like the quality, from what I can see of course, so yeah.... Thank you for sharing your ideas

[@leeyadrick4469]

Love this. I have the Cricut foiling system. I don’t know if I can do anything with it - will have to try something.

[@munchkin4539]

Awesome, thank you for sharing

[@dizzinese]

You show such an array of techniques with not just coloring, dies, stamping, etc. But also just card sizes, orientations, colors, envelopes! I don’t know how you fit all that plus the millions of techniques and variations in you head!!!!! How do you sleep Jennifer?

[@caroldubois6183]

Terrific.

[@prentzess]

Beautiful cards! I regret that I don't have money or space for a foiling machine.

[@gaylebates254]

I use mine with my vagabond and it works well.

[@loriheady7407]

Thank you as always Jennifer. Awesome video! Does anyone know what pen type tool she's using for the embellishments on the butterfly?

[@amysumida2097]

Beautiful! To use the Glimmer machine with dies cut and foil. And then the cut machine: can be use SIZZIX or SPELLBINDERS cut machine? I love the Glimmer foil machine. Or is there a way to make with foil. Please advise.

[@cocojoycollective]

I have a stampin up die machine....can I use any of the foil machines with it????

[@dizzinese]

Stampin up. Now what? I started almost 20 years ago and there weren’t all these places. So one of the very few was stampin up. I really don’t like some of the things they do like adding and then taking away colors, nor do I like their mostly detailed stamps. But I have a ton invested. So I have a sissix big shot. There is no foiling machine for that so what do I use? They also don’t make ink stands either. I find that the industry is not thoughtful with regard to stampin up when they make products. For ppl like me that want to switch but can’t do to the large investment in inks, cardstock, markers, etc, this can be a frequent problem. I rarely buy from Stampin up anymore and it’s not a problem MOST videos, tips, suggestions. But it can be. Please remember those of us that have SU when it comes to your fantastic tips and suggestions. Thank you Jennifer for sharing such immense talent. You are loved and respected highly! ❤️🙏🏻

[@jennifermcguireink]

Most of videos work with varieties of stamps and dies, so hopefully other videos help! I never really used much stampin up... I like to mix and match all the companies. what do you mean the industry isn't thoughtful when they create products? Most companies create their own products and can be mixed and matched well. Also, as for the sizzix machine and hot foiling - i would search on youtube. i bet someone has figured it out. i dont have a sizzix machine anymore. good luck! :)

[@fionnawheatley9095]

Couture creations go press and foil works well with my sizzix machine. Hth….

[@shraddhatefft7619]

You can use the glimmer with your sizzix big shot. That’s what I have too!

[@kcinca5410]

I use a Go Press and Foil machine with my Sizzix Big Shot Pro. Works great with awesome results.

[@annpowell7628]

Hi Jennifer.. I always love your videos.. I wondered if you know whether there is a hot foil machine that works with Anna Griffin's Empress die-cutting machine. I love my Empress, and hate to buy another machine, but I love the hot foil plates. Thanks

[@jennifermcguireink]

Not that I know of.

[@teresevanderhaar9310]

I want to spellbinders die cutting machine. But I want it to go on sale, it’s hard to do all the stuff on the budget

[@lisahernandezlucas]

Those butterflies are amazing! Do you throw away the foil after using it once or is there a way to reuse it?

[@jennifermcguireink]

you can use the negative space foil on a card! just cover cardstock with adhesive and lay the foil leftover on it and leave it there.

[@lisahernandezlucas]

@@jennifermcguireink Cool!

[@gabrielleataylor121]

What brands of colored cardstock do you find foil best? I’ve been doing some foiling but find it tricky to get good results with some colored cardstock. The cardstock you used in the first card seems to have foiled really well. Thank you!

[@jennifermcguireink]

You are right that it can sometimes be trickier with colored cardstock if they aren't smooth enough. There isn't any particular brand that works better. I think it's a matter of trial and error. If anyone has suggestions on what they have found I hope they will chime in

[@lindaball403]

Omgoodness! These are all so beautiful! I don't know if you know everyone in the craft world, but do you know what happened to Elaine from Marker Geek? She hasn't had any new videos, I think since Christmas. Thank you!

[@jennifermcguireink]

sorry, i don't think i know her

[@jeannearrington3970]

Have you ever done a video on Stamp Kissing?

[@jennifermcguireink]

I sure have! www.jennifermcguireink.com/2019/09/made-in-minutes-kissing-technique.html

[@SaraFurrTheCraftyFarmChick]

JENNIFER, what's the name of the pink tape that you use on your dies or stencils, and where can i buy it? Love all your videos!

[@jennifermcguireink]

www.simonsaysstamp.com/search?currency=USD&q=see+tape

[@JC-dk4ny]

Also, do you ever use the negative image on the foil and if so how?

[@shirleyphillips8936]

Pinkfresh now has a solid plate for the negative transfer of foil. Jennifer McGuire has a KZbin on it.

[@dawnwhitaker1675]

Jennifer - These cards are beautiful. However, I made the decision years ago to NOT go with a hot foil plate because the dies are so limited to that type of machine only. I just couldn't see the financial justification. So I foil using a laminating machine, like most do. Can you please, please, PLEASE figure out how to do this clear technique with that medium??? You are a crafting genius, and I would be ever-so thrilled to be able to do this.

[@jennifermcguireink]

i am not sure the acetate can handle the heat of the laminator. also the die would not fit thorough sorry! They are two completely different techniques. :)

[@jennifermcguireink]

also you can use the hot foil plates for a letterpress look kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZXbeH-MpMhod5Y

[@elizabethnovak4951]

These are all beautiful cards, especially the acetate. I seem to recall your using a cold foiling machine but I can’t seem to find the video. Can you help?

[@jennifermcguireink]

not sure which video that was. here is my foil playlist with lost of options kzbin.info/aero/PLTuV6i1nUI6RCPtCsMeDIln1BP4NR20tp

[@nolajeanspiers4668]

Thank you that’s investing

[@kimjones8379]

Can the hot foil plates be used with the Gemi I Jr. Hot foiling machine

[@jennifermcguireink]

yes

[@JC-dk4ny]

No glimmer machine, or any hot foiling machine, do you think deco foil would work with transfer gel and a laminator? I have a hard time getting a nice foiled image on cardstock, trying vellum or acetate seems tricky.

[@jennifermcguireink]

Yes and yes

[@hannalyons4376]

I did something like that. Inspired by this video, I stamped the image with Altenew Obsidian Black and then took a picture of the image and transferred it to my computer. Then I printed it out on my toner printer and ran it through my laminator with gold Deco Foil. it came out beautifully! It takes some time to learn which images do well with this technique - Spellbinders does that work for you! But I am thrilled with how it came out.

[@janiceharrison8397]

If I don't have a hot foil plate yet would it be possible to buy the stamps and stamp with versamark and put foil over the top running through my Big Shot machine?

[@jennifermcguireink]

Sorry, that won't work for the foil

[@denisegaynor4387]

Can these products be used with a laminator or do I need a larger craft space to accommodate another machine and it's materials? 😲

[@jennifermcguireink]

haha yes this is different. if you want to use a laminator instead, you use a different foil, such as Deco foil. I have a playlist with LOTS of foiling methods, including the laminator: kzbin.info/aero/PLTuV6i1nUI6RCPtCsMeDIln1BP4NR20tp This is just another option and another way our stamp companies are bringing us innovative products! :)

[@lindarc8860]

I just bought the Spellbinders Glimmer Foil machine but found it very difficult to remove it from the base. Does this get easier the more you use it? Thank you

[@jennifermcguireink]

it should come out easily. i would contact customer service

[@sharon94503]

Wondering if I can use Cricut Foil Quill foil?

[@jennifermcguireink]

sorry, i don't know anything about it

[@carolreynolds8982]

Must the die be a “hot foil” die - or can regular cutting dies be used? I just got a Glimmer machine. Anxious to get it up & running. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@jennifermcguireink]

i show how to do that in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i567YpuOnZqpeZY

[@743linda]

Beautiful cards!!!
