Laminating Stamping Technique

[@crmuirhead]

If you don't have pigment ink, stamp with an embossing ink then sprinkle on your embossing powder. When you run your piece through the laminator the heat will melt your powder and trap it in between. Love all these ideas!

[@ariesgirl3444]

So Crystal, the embossing powder doesn't smudge with the pressure when it goes through the laminator?

[@shaymarie7045]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@amkarei]

Educate me, please...that is such an interesting premise, but you really can't use an embossing buddy in that application, so how would you keep the embossing powder JUST on the stamped places where you want it? Don't mean to be a nay-sayer, but I'm thinking the static of the plastic laminating sheets would have the embossing powder all over inside the pouch.

This is an absolute amazing technique. I have to try this.

[@tc247]

Love all these different techniques! Who knew?! It never ceases to amaze me what brilliant ideas crafters come up with. I'll be using these different techniques for sure. Thank you, Jennifer

[@susanduncan7875]

This video has made me look at my laminator in a whole new way.

[@judylewis3213]

This video never gets old, I think I've seen it 2 dozen times or more.You are so very talented and make creating magical.🦋

[@tasst2674]

Get out of town! Two videos in one day? Beyond awesome. Thanks Jen!

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

Oh my word, I had laminated a stamped book mark & thought, hmmm, I bet I can make a shaker card with this plastic since it’s heat resistant & hardens after it goes through the laminator. Brilliant minds!!! I hadn’t tested this out yet, so I’m so very grateful you discovered this & utilized & shared this technique! You’re fabulous Jennifer!!! You’re cards are GORGEOUS!!! As always, thanks you so much for sharing your time, talent and creativity! Stay well, blessings always!!!

[@JannGray]

And once again you have come up with another BRILLIANT technique that can be used over and over in a gazillion ways! Bravo! You rock!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💗

[@juanitawysinger7565]

Mine bombed! I even used the flourish stamp like you showed, used my heat gun because it was a new ink pad. Just didn’t dry it enough, I guess. It melted big time. LOL. but I think it can be used as a background for shaker card so all is not lost. I will try the technique again and just leave it alone until I am absolutely certain it is dry. This is a great idea and I’m looking forward to getting it right the second time. Thanks, Jennifer. These are wonderful ways to use these beautiful stamps.

[@christaprim4371]

Silly me, I commented before watching the entire video. Of course you figured out the shaker card. Like I said, queen of techniques. You are so awesome. Thank you for all of the education over the years.

[@amkarei]

She DOES get our minds into "high gear"!! I, too, have "jumped ahead" before watching "the whole thing"!!!!

[@annihilator45]

Thanks Jennifer ! That tip about folding the card and running thru the laminator is awesome.

[@shaymarie7045]

Ditto!

[@nmccleary3889]

You're killing me. I said no more spending money and...and...you tag teamed me!!! Jennifer and Gina and a new laminating Technique? Give up now dorothy!!!!! I am beyond amazed. Really. I used your link to order Gina pkg. Omgoodness. So excited. As always love your vids !

[@1957wew]

Omg a game changer never thought of using stamps inside, i would die cut words to do it. And now this is so much easier.thank you

[@amkarei]

Oooo, But the DIE CUTS are ALSO a cool Idea!!

[@rtd1791]

I have been stamping on the inside of laminating pouches for years, but I never thought to use laminating pouches in a card. I do it for stamp storage. I stamp images on the inside of the pouch so that the stamp aligns with the image just as it does on the original registration sheet that comes with the stamp. I organize my stamps by theme rather than by manufacturer. I put white cardstock in the laminating pouch too so that I can write down info about the stamp and to make a sturdy backing. I love a good technique video.

[@Pebblesmas]

What an amazing idea too!!

[@905lovest]

rtd1791, that is a BRILLIANT concept!!! I too am organizing all of my stamps and dies by theme, am almost finished doing clear/cling stamps and all dies, then I have to decide what to do with my wood-mounted stamps. I have used a ton of double-sided tape rolls to affix clear stamps to the acetate that usually came with the stamp set, but this would have been SO much better!!! I have put my stamps and dies in folders as well... If I was doing it again, I might not, but I had put too much into this to change... I do use laminating pouches for rubber cling stamps--when I started out doing this, I contacted manufacturers to see if it was safe to use acetate with the cling stamps and was told it was fine, but later was told that I should not use them. Instead of buying lots of commercially-available laminated pages, I bought an inexpensive laminator and used pouches myself. I love your idea and had to stop and say how brilliant is your idea.

[@amkarei]

O - M - GOSH & BY GOLLY!!!! I've SOOOOOO been puzzling over how I was going to make index sheets for the theme-based sorting I'll be doing -- AND YOU BLESSED ME with the ANSWER!!! I thought of StaZon-stamped acetate sheets, but wasn't certain as to just how durable they would be over time, and, never having had experience w/ that product, I wasn't sure if I really wanted to brave it (It has a "reputation", you know! tee-hee) Thank you, THANK YOU, rtd1791!!!!! (By the way, any input on HOW you sort the sentiments stamps? Or do you use AIRTABLE or EVERNOTE to keep them from getting "lost"??) (PS: THX AGAIN!!!)

[@ConnectedToTheUnknown]

Love that idea!!!!!!!

[@ConnectedToTheUnknown]

I never knew this was a thing! I started doing it recently and thought I was so clever and inventive 😂😂😂 even posted a video on my Instagram! ( @paintopuissant ) So fun to learn!

[@Marilynlovesebiking]

These cards are great. Love the idea of stamping inside a laminating pouch. I love new ideas on how to use my laminator.

[@melissajuliano9210]

Holly molly this is GREAT! GOD bless you! God has blessed you with a gift!

[@jilllancett6113]

This is brilliant!!!! Thanks for sharing....a tip, instead of putting the scrap of card stock in the top of the pouch, you can fold a piece of standard typing paper in half horozontally, and put the end of the pouch in it, like a folder and run that through, that way you can use the typing paper over and over.

[@MiMi85191]

That doesn't work for me... Or yes it works but the lamination does not look that good at the area where the paper was... Maybe it's my laminator or the cheap laminating pouch?!

[@jadhikari0]

Wow Jennifer I can’t even find words to describe how stunningly beautiful these cards are.

[@CraftyAliConfessions]

OMG. This is a GAME CHANGER! 😳🤩 thanks for share Jennifer. Crafty hugs. X

[@patriciascoble9680]

All I can say is WOW!!!!! I have just put the laminator away. It'll be out again very soon. I hope you are all keeping well. Best Wishes from New Zealand.

[@nmccleary3889]

I visited nz for a month in wellington. Hope things are safe there

[@patriciascoble9680]

@@nmccleary3889 As far as i know we only have about 8 cases in the whole country and they are mostly in Auckland. They are all in isolation. These are stopped at the boarders. Anyone comming to New Zealand has to go into isolation for 2 weeks before going anywhere else. It seems harsh but it is working. Stay well and safe.

Hello,Jennifer!I have been following your work since” Creative Keepsakes”,and you always growing and coming up with amazing ideas which are very exciting and most importantly doable…Thank you very much for keeping reigning fire in me and,hopefully,in many others for the love of papercraft🫶🏻

[@janhudson55]

You have solved a problem by showing this technique. Now to get started on my Christmas cards. Thanks again Jan

[@soulshinedesigns]

This is so clever! Instead of a piece of scrap cardstock, you could do a bookmark since you cut it off anyway. That way you don't waste cardstock and laminating sheet.

[@jennifermcguireink]

great idea! i acutally write notes on them with a wet erase marker. and then clean to reuse. should have mentioned in the video

[@debbieatkins5256]

I was thinking the cardstock could be slightly narrow, then stamp with sentiments. When cut and applied it would look like it's floating.

Brilliant you are genius. I watched your video with sequins in the pouch and used black and red sequins for Valentine's backgrounds.

Have you seen the matte laminator pockets, they’re really cool. Sometimes you don’t want that super shiny reflecting surface.

WOW! You really knocked this new release out of the park Jennifer! Fabulous cards! I have so much acetate, I'm definitely trying this technique, thank you!

OMG Jennifer, I have been using this technique for several months now, because I didn't have the right acetate. I also discovered it by accident when I was making my stamp storage pouches. You can also use the laminated sheets for making shaker cards. I find that they hold up very well. I knew that it would eventually be you who figured this one out. You are the technique queen.

[@verafernandes4913]

Hi Jennifer, I was so excited to get the new Gina K Designs kit I neglected to comment for your new tutorial! Let me say, light bulb over the head, Idea to creative adventures. I just purchased the RS laminator and had the pouch get caught and caused a jam that could not be fixed, thankfully, the laminator was returned, and replaced with no cost to me. I received it two days ago. I remember watching one of your video with regard to using parchment paper, well I have parchment paper, but I do a GREAT DEAL of baking and did not want to waste it so I have many reams of copy paper and used that; and it worked great, however, the pouch wrinkled a bit. New user, I'll get use to adding the pouch in better. Anyway, sorry for the long message, just want today that I added snowflake glitter embossing power in the pouch and the results were beautiful. So what I did was cut the pouches in one inch strips and used it as a belly band for the tree ornaments on my card. You inspire me to get more creative, in using my tools and products. Thank you. Wonderful tutorial. I hope I'm successful in getting through to Gina K website, if not, I have the Hero Arts kit that I just received two days ago too, and will use that.
