No Foiling Machine??? No Problem!! ✨Technique video!✨

[@Mari-cre8s]

What a fabulous technique idea!! As someone that can’t afford/refuses to go down the hot foil rabbit hole I am thrilled to see this idea!! Can’t wait to try it! Thanks so much👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🧑🏼‍🎨😀🦋

[@stellaolejar9007]

My sentiment exactly as what Mari stated. Thank you Lou for this tutorial. I love it - what a brilliant idea. Will be giving this a go.

[@JCcreates927]

On big areas like this to wet glue, put the glue on a sponge and dab it on, it covers more faster.

[@kayenash5481]

One question, how did you get the gold onto that clear accitate?

[@Johannah18]

Or stampin up has adhesive sheets.

[@maggieb4648]

Thank you for this wonderful technique. I love the foiled look, but just can't justify the expense of a foiling machine or laminator at the moment. I'm excited to give this a go!

[@cindyrobinson2199]

This is great. I love the look of foil but don't want to spend the money for another machine. Thanks for a great technique.

[@87aew]

Wow what an amazing technique !! I love foiling but have not been able to justify the cost of a hot foil machine yet

[@margaritagerman]

This is truely Brilliant! You are using what you have, not spending yet more money, and best of all it is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your wonderfulky creative and generous heart.

[@juliewilliams1879]

love this technique Lou, i did have a foiling machine but just couldn't get on with it, this is much easier.

[@conniesanginesi4676]

You are brilliant! Not all of us can afford a foiling machine, plus all the plates you would need to invest in. Thank you I’m definitely going to give this a try.

[@missychan63]

Another "Duh! Why didn't I think of this???" This is fantastic, thank you for sharing!

[@robertascholten8173]

Genius, absolute genius! I love the foil look, but so many tools, more specialized supplies... crafting is already expensive!! I will be using this technique. Thank you SO MUCH!!

[@hazelkinvig-paul8231]

You have revived my excitement for card making again! I had lost the drive I first had. Watching your fabulous techniques, I can't wait to start again! Thank you so very much. Duly subscribed, with a thumbs up!

[@CraftingMyWorld]

Wow, this is a game-changer! I love the look of foiling but don't want the expense - plus the way you are doing it, it opens up a thousand ways of using the dies that I already have. Thank you so much!

[@gracewilliams5781]

Brilliant! What a great technique. I can’t wait to try this. I’ve been intrigued by foiling but don’t want to invest in more machines. This looks like a good alternative. Thank you!

[@kattytj1]

Thank you very much, you're incredible. Such a creative idea, again, thanks for sharing it with us. Wish you and your loved ones the best always. Greetings from Morelia México

[@kcinca5410]

Just a note on my experience when I tried this technique with my Sizzix Big Shot Foldaway. The Foldaway had too much pressure for the silicone mat to work correctly on my machine so I used the plastic Impression pad instead and it worked like a charm! I couldn't get the silicone mat to work in my Switch at all at it totally squished and stretched the mat.

[@LouCollins]

Really good to know how different machines give varying results. Thanks for letting us know!

[@loishemphill9485]

Awesome idea; cheaper and easier to do without having to buy the foil. I can't wait to try it after the snow goes away so I can get to my craftroom.

[@marilyncopham5352]

It looks really lovely I bought a foiling machine and I have used it once this idea is far simpler and easy.Thank you

[@Blondivonrotten]

I've been on the fence about getting a foiling machine. You just saved me many 100s of dollars!! Thank you so much! ❤

[@cynthiatuczynski9491]

Great idea. Right now I just can’t justify the expense of everything needed for foiling. I can’t wait to try this. Thank you for sharing. 😊🤗

[@jillmayes139]

Wouldn't have thought of layering metallics! Can feel more experiments coming on.

[@mokrn]

Now that's just plain old amazing! I would never have thought that running foil cardstock through a die cutting machine would make such a difference. Well done!

[@faypetzel7414]

Make-up sponges also work great for applying glue.

[@dorindavaughn4870]

WOW WOW WOW! Love this technique. You have me a lot of money. Many thanks!

[@jacquiposener7262]

Great technique Lou. Thank you😊!

[@semmaville]

You are a genius 😳

[@paulinemumby9767]

I tried it did not work , the mirror card still sat on top of the cardstock ,yours looked a mazing mine didn't

[@paulinemumby9767]

Tried again exactly as you did, no better

[@viktoriatoth5809]

Same. Looks like normal diecut just flatter a bit.

[@viktoriatoth5809]

Oh I just read in one of the comments to put the rubber mat under the cardstock and not on top of it. I tried it and it worked that way. Only downside is that it's such a tight squeeze that every small mark on my top plate was visible on the result so I will need a brand new plate for this, one that I will never use for anything else.

[@jackiefarr5703]

Brilliant idea 💡. I'm going to give it a try right away as I'm preparing for a stall on Sunday with my daughter who makes jewellery. Cards don't move much here in Italy but I like making them, so as I'm my daughter's little helper at the fair I'll put some out as it's wedding and communion time now. Thanks for your tutorials, so good, short and to the point with no larking around 🤣

[@labradorite8256]

You are a GENIUS!!!!!

[@angelawalgenbach6488]

[@kristicompton8812]

Awesome technique! Wish I had viewed this before I ɓought a foil machine. I will still be saving money on future patterns, using my existing dies and your technique!! Bravo!

Fantastic cards❤

[@suewietsma8585]

So pretty

[@wendy8184]

Fabulous! Thanks for this, I will try it out. I decided a long time ago not to invest in a glimmer machine , but this technique looks fantastic

[@LadyJP6969]

Terrific!!! Thanks for sharing.

[@dianezavolas1197]

Great technique! I don’t have a foiling system so will be trying this. Thank you for sharing.

[@jenniferwatson7118]

Excellent tip - thanks!

[@stormyswann6177]

Genius

[@kcinca5410]

I really love this fantastic technique. I have a hot foil machine BUT this seems a great solution so I don't have to worry about under or overfoiling (less of a problem now that I have the Switch). This year my holiday cards are featuring a large partially foiled die cut on a stamped background and I wanted to add some small coordinating elements in foil but was afraid of mucking up the already stamped background. PROBLEM SOLVED. Instead of hot foiling on the card front I can cut the coordinating die shapes and adhere them in this manner than continue on attaching the large die (to which I want to add dimension) and the sentiment. Voila! Thanks so much.

[@lizhavercost1729]
