Oh cool!!! What is your blog? I would like to check out your creations too!
DeleteOh Meghan thank you so much for the awesome "shout out"!!! I really appreciate it! And your card is so cute....you did a great job foiling!!! So to answer your questions.....I have been foiling for about 10 years, long before the machines came along. I DON'T have a foiling machine and will not spend the money to get one....in fact I do NOT like MINC foil (it just doesn't work as good in my opinion). I have a video you may have watched already, and if not you should, it's called 7 Ways To Apply Transfer Foil To Crafts WITHOUT A MACHINE. There are more than 7 ways but one way a friend had done shortly before I made my video, and other ways just didn't get into the video. Also, if you want a machine you could always get a good laminator ($20-$40 at Amazon) and then it has more than one purpose. Besides...if you want to add foil to something like a frame or a jar or anything dimensional you can't put it through a machine...LOL. But I have several videos on using transfer foil and I hope you watch them and maybe they will give you some ideas of your own :) Hugs...Janie

Great bit of foiling. I only do it like you too but having no machine means I dont do it often as my hands dont have the strength no more to do heavyish things. Xx
ReplyDeleteA beautiful card, love the striking black and silver colour theme and that cute little cat. Thank you for sharing your beautiful make with us over at Polkadoodles and hope you will join us again.
ReplyDeleteTake care,

So cute with the cat and hearts. I have bought some foil supplies but haven't tried yet.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness this is just adorable! I love your cat with rosy cheeks and the silver and black looks so beautiful. Thanks for entering the Aud sentiments challenge, I hope we will see you again next time.
