I just got my foil machine, and I've been watching your videos to use the machine to it's best advantage. I absolutely love the way you foiled over the photos. What a clever idea! Thanks, Yana!
Just love your cards. The ink blended blue panel is gorgeous, really effective. I’m going to give this a go. Thank you for the technique. I had another foiling machine but wasn’t that impressed with it. After watching your videos, I’ve invested in the Spellbinders Glimmer machine. Yet to use it, but your enthusiasm and demonstrations assure me I’m going to love this machine. Just need to build my stash of foil dies. Thank you for all your inspiration.
Hi Yana, love the cards. Question: Can you foil over ink? I noticed you ink blended on your cards after foiling, is that because you can't foil over ink?
Yes, you can easily foil over ink. In fact, you can foil over many different things (just not heat embossing). I blended over foiling because it was an afterthought, not because it can't be done before.
I am going to a craft weekend at a B&B and I am taking my Platinum 6 machine, my Glimmer Foil Machine , and your videos! Christmas cards here we come!! I do have a question, What is the weight of your paper shim?? Thank you and, obviously, I love your videos!!
You can you plates. They look like dies, but are a bit thicker. I'm using just plates to foil with in this video. You can also use some thin etched dies, they will foil, but unlike plates will only give you a thin foiled line where the cut line should have been. Here's a good video about foiling with etched dies ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UpSd8dmrLWg.html and here's another one ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aGTk5ULTxsU.html
