A pretty card for a not-so-pretty occasion. I agree w/ the person who mentioned the Easter color theme below. I like the plain silver as it seems more approrpriate for sympathy than the "prism" foil, although the prism foil is gorgeous. The person who mentioned the "rainbow bridge" for pets who have crossed that bridge is really thinking! Perfect! As always, you've inspired and instructed. Thanks, CZ! Lori S in PA

Beautiful card. It may help to not have the sentiments straight across horizontally but tilt them or place them vertically like when you cut rectangle and square dies.

@tracyrenner9490 Жыл бұрын

I have better results if I place the sentiments in the other direction on the hot foil plate so the go through the machine the long way. They don’t shift that way. If you want to try something fun get some Tim Holtz Ranger silver sparkle yupo for alcohol ink it foils beautifully! I love the Therm O Web hot foils my favorite colors are rose gold, twilight, rainbow and green❤️

The problem with shifting foil plates is the reason I always use the hinge method anymore. Nancy Stamps also has a KZfaq video on taping your glimmer plates together to prevent the shifting of hot foil plates. I haven't tried it yet, but that may also be a solution.

I agree with the comment about only running through your die cut machine once or you can tape down your hot foil plates. The henge method works great for preventing those double images when hot foiling. It is a little extra time but worth it. It has saved me a lot in the long run. This card turned out gorgeous. I love the cool colors that you chose

Gorgeous card in the end. I love it. FYI - You can’t get double foiling from dislodging your plates from the glimmer machine. Double foiling comes from not having the glimmer plates secured when you roll it through your die cut machine more than one time. Four smaller plates don’t go back-and-forth just go through one time or you can tape them on securely.

As a few people already mentioned, I was told by the owner of my LSS that the skipping or doubling does happen when you go forward AND back, so that I shouldn't do that. Of course, it's force of habit, and just as she said...when I did it, it doubled! (I'd save and use those that you made anyway, and maybe ink in between the lines with a coordinating color, so it looks intentional.) Love your cards as always, Cathy!

Thank you, Cathy, for demonstrating foiling results on different card stocks. After refraining from jumping on the foiling bandwagon for a long time, I decided to gift myself the Glimmer machine for Xmas. I was terrified to try it, but bit the bullet this past weekend. My first try turned out perfectly, but it was on acetate while I wait on my Hammermill. Watched a Pinkfresh video beforehand in which her (Heather?) two tips to avoid the halo effect are to disengage the platform before building the sandwich and to run it through the die cutting machine only once.

Oh yes, I need to disengage that platform!

One of the things I read in the instructions is that let the dies heat without anything on top, then undock and place foil and paper on top of the dies and run thru die cut machine. The first two times I used the machine I did this and everything turned out great.

I think the over foiling might be happening when you run it twice through the Spellbinders machine forward then backward. The foil slips a little and creates over foiling.
