Another KZbinr was asking $100 to take their long course to learn this while you posted this video for free! OMG thank you so os so so so much!

The Gold Foiling always makes the products look much more cool than the normal ones. I'm in love with them myself.

[@soniastegemann1923]

Hehe I know!! It makes them so special!^^

[@K_halmiland]

@@soniastegemann1923 IKR!!! 😃

[@juukaart9530]

Ah Sonia, I saw a couple of days ago that you can also do holographic stickers using a laminator. It's an special paper with different holographic patterns that you can apply the same way as the foil. I can't wait to buy my printers and laminator after moving and start working on cute stickers. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! 💖

[@soniastegemann1923]

Yesss I saw that as well! And I always thought I needed a special hot press but turns out I don't?? Honestly, what can stop us at this point?XDD Can't wait to see what you'll do!!

[@Alfred_the_doodler]

Thank you this was incredibly helpful!

[@shinyrayasmr]

how come that the laminate pouch didn t stick while going through heated laminator?

[@magichand-oz5lw]

why didnt you make the foil stamp designe in silouette studio too ??

[@giigiireadss]

These are so beautiful!!!😍😍😍 its crazy how they look so complicated to make but they’re not lol

[@soniastegemann1923]

Yeah right?? I always thought I couldn't do that but am glad I looked into it!^^

[@cornishpixie9096]

That technique is so cool I've never thought you would be able to do that home. Looks amazing can't wait to receive it x

[@soniastegemann1923]

Yeah it's so cool and fun! I need to watch more amazing crafting ladies on here, there are so many things I don't know yet:D

[@woofiecute2209]

your cat is adorable and I love your stickers!!

[@soniastegemann1923]

Aww haha thank you!

[@monkeymintaka]

Wow! They look so cool! I've never really been interested in foiling because it seems like such an effort with all the machines, but this method looks pretty simple. I really want to try it now! Maybe next year... Thanks for sharing :)

[@soniastegemann1923]

Yeah I thought the same! And then had to try immediately lol!

[@marissacruz3849]

How do you get it to line up properly?

[@soniastegemann1923]

I actually don't if that makes sense!:D I made a file where I had them on layers on top of each other to get the placing right but the printer will shift it slightly! The key is to make the design in a way that doesn't need it to be 100% exact!

[@abegaildaus8613]

Your products are rlly stunning😊

[@soniastegemann1923]

Aw thank you!

[@MS-dw6zu]

Hi! I just started making stickers, but I'm having problem aligning the lazer print to align with the graphics once I printed with the inkjet. May I ask how you align it?

[@fijaystudio]

I think, given the plethora of artist boxes that you would do very well creating an "artist junk journalling box" :) I love this vlog, I literally picked up a minc and laser printer on sale a couple mths ago, but I am always slow to use new things for fear of damaging them. Even if I know how!

[@soniastegemann1923]

I actually feel that! The first few weeks I'm super hesitant and careful when using new things until I get used to them!:D And omg that would be such a dream project!! T_T Maybe I could make that a reality next year or so!

[@hangsok8675]

Thanks for the video. How did you align the foil print up with the sticker page when you print it separately?

[@kriziabel]

I wish your vlogs were longer! I’m usually a silent lurker but I find your vlogs very relaxing while I draw or edit videos! Maybe you could include some packaging timelapse. I think that would be cool!

[@soniastegemann1923]

Aw thank you! Same, I love watching super long vlogs!!^^ The next one will probably be longer, thank you for the feedback!

[@Alanisruiz]

What printer do u recommend for me to make stickers? One that can print a lot 😂?

[@soniastegemann1923]

Well I use an HP Office Jet Pro and would definitely say it holds up so far, I've printed thousands of sheets and stickers with this guy:D

[@Alanisruiz]

@@soniastegemann1923 ok thank u so much :D ♡

[@herinternest3958]

What an amazing products! You are so inspiring Sonia! Can I ask one oddly specific question? Do you use sticker paper for inkjet or laser or some kind of version for both? I am just worried what would happen in the laser printer if I print on inkjet sticker paper? Thanks a lot!

[@pixiestyx]

WOW, that's a lot easier than I expected it to be, and it looks amazing! I don't blame Mila for not wanting to stay out long in the cold - I get cold easily and much prefer being cozy. XD Ooh are you doing an anime style? Those sketches are so cute! So excited for the dark academia pack! Love being your Patron. :)

[@soniastegemann1923]

Yeah right? When doing research I was like: this is it lol? So I bought the supplies immediately!XD But I feel like that is the case for a lot of projects! They seem so impossible in the beginning (I remember things like editing a video, tattooing, digital art etc) but once you start it's not that bad at all:D And same haha, I'm glad I also can stay in that way:D You are so sweet thank you T_T

[@JessicaLynnIllustration]

I love the foiling technique and have considered doing it myself! Your stickers and are beautiful as always - may sign up for Patreon to get these ones! :)

[@soniastegemann1923]

Aw you are so sweet, thank you!^^ And you should try it out, it's really fun!

[@HarmonyHardin]

Really interesting and beautiful! I have just started getting interested in the foil idea. KZbin recommended this video to me and I am so happy I found your channel that way :). PS: Cute cat :D.

[@soniastegemann1923]

Aw yay and welcome!^^ Yeah it's such a new technique to me but really fun to experiment with and see what's possible!

@@soniastegemann1923 aww don't be bc it's one of your assets!

[@aianaiya]

omg this is amazing! i want to try! they came out so nice you did such a good job. what is that plastic wallet you put the stickers and gold foil into through the laminator? im guessing its not like a laminating pouch or something as it didnt stick to the paper? this is probably such a dumb question haha xx

[@soniastegemann1923]

Not at all!^^ Yes it's especially made for laminating things inside of it! It's also from Heidi Swapp!

[@keeksartcreations418]

You make having a Patreon look so fun 😁I wanted to for a while but I have been hesitant. You make me want to start sooner (the beginning of the year.) My problem though is shipping time for any products I order since I live in Barbados. Also I don’t have many followers and I’m afraid no one will sign up but I still want to try it. Any advice?

[@soniastegemann1923]

Aw it really is haha!^^ When I started mine I only had 5 patrons so it is natural to start slow and small! You also truly don't need to send out anything physical! Maybe start with digital rewards only!:) I would recommend though to have at least some amount of following before you open one to make sure you're not only putting in the work for a few people or just one person! I personally set myself the goal of 50k followers back then but would definitely say it would be possible to start sooner! You know your fanbase best and it is no shame to wait a little longer until you feel it is appropriate!

[@iceegalvez5122]

What printer did you use? I tried doing it but the prints doesn’t align 😭

[@MS-dw6zu]

Hi! I just started making stickers, but I'm having problem aligning the lazer print to align with the graphics once I printed with the inkjet. May I ask how you align it?

[@Maria-gm8ux]

Wait how do you get the plastic covers in the laminator to not actually laminate the page ?? If I do that and put it through the laminator it’s going to stick to the page and actually laminate the page and no way will I be able to open it like that 😱

[@soniastegemann1923]

There are ones that are specifically made for that!^^ But you can also use paper I think!

[@Maria-gm8ux]

Ohhh okay. Thank you ! Love your stuff

[@latoyathomas693]

This is my second vlog from you and I love them... I just had to sub! Your content is so calming. .. I tried foiling with a brother monochrome printer and it has never aligned right. What kind of laser printer are you using if you don't mind sharing.

[@soniastegemann1923]

Aw thank you so much and welcome!

[@_Lakendria]

Milas cute reaction🥺❤️ I love the aesthetic look for this months parcel especially the stamps they are so pretty. Last year I discovered We R Memory Keepers, they have a foil quill that works with all cutting machines. I hope that can also be helpful to you when it comes to foil. And I hope I get it as a Christmas present!!😭😭

[@soniastegemann1923]

Omg I didn't know about them!!! That's right up my alley haha, thank you!^^ And there is a good chance, the post times have improved a lot lately!

With anime, fan art usually even is encouraged! If you make your own version so in your style it should be totally fine!^^
