Pia, this is a game changer! I have so many plastic embossing folders that I don’t use anymore, I don’t mind if any of them get ruined by the heat. Also, about 15 years ago when Spellbinders first started up they did an embossing plate that was a thin metal that you ran through your embossing machine. I had a Cuddlebug machine at that time, and they did a wonderful job of embossing the paper. Everybody got rid of theirs when the plastic folders came out, but I kept mine. So glad I did! I’m going to try this technique with my old, thin metal embossing dies fromSpellbinders.
A friend mentioned these to me and she's had good results... think they are called Impressabilities. I tried one with not good results but will try again!
I just ordered my machine...can't wait to get it so was looking at videos...wow...I cant believe you were brave enough to try this I would have thought it would melt the folder...but I'm glad you were cause this is awesome! Thank you! Love this idea!
Your video just popped up in my feed and I can’t wait to try this with MY machine and different sandwiches !! I was VERY impressed with how they turned out…. Thank you for sharing all your tips and the results ❤ Nancy Rolfe P.S. I also subscribed
Thank you so much for this video. This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in a long time in terms of subject matter, pace, and explanation! Really enjoyed it!
Just got my machine. So I'm trolling You Tube for info. So glad I found your videos. Loved how you tried it with embossing folders. More things to try!!!! Thanks for sharing.
Wow! Wonderful results from using EF....which as others have said, I would never have thought to use! Thank you for being curious and enlightening all of us!
Amazing technique!! Oh my goodness, I never would have thought to try embossing folders with the foil system. Thank you for sharing this, I’m excited to try it.
I have several cards on my blog where I use the negative foil... printer paper on heat platform (so not to get the grid design from platform)...negative foil...card front...then build your sandwich a bit more.
Hi Mary :) I am still working on solving this matter. But the moment I’ve found the perfekt solution, I will make sure to make a How-to-video :) And thank you for asking 😄
@@PiaKroghLarsen Just bought my Spell Binders Hot foiling system yesterday. There is a flat foiling plate from Pinkfresh that you can use for the negative foil so it is not wasted. I watched it on Jennifer McGuire Ink so when I bought the foiling system I purchased that plate as well. But now I am wondering if I could have used a thin plate metal plate from the hardware store. Darn should have thought of that sooner! I am so thankful for your video so I don't have to invest in hot foiling plates for backgrounds. This is a game changer and money saver for me!!
Thank you Patty :) Yes, I do have several other Hot Foil videos. If you go to my YT channel, then I have a Playlist for Glimmer Hot Foil. Some of the videos are with Danish voiceovers, so just skip over those. Almost all my videos are made in an English voiceover version and a Danish voiceover version.
Hi Holly, I am not so sure this technique will work with 3D embossing folders. Reason is that the pattern in 3D is on several levels, whereas it needs to be 2D for the impression on the foil to be good. But I cannot be a 100% sure. Why don't you give it a go and test it out :) If you do, please let me know how it went :)
Hi Bunnie, you can use all colours of wafer thin dies for hot foiling. They do not have to be gold to work with Hot Foiling :) I have already made a couple of videos showing the use of wafer thin dies with the Glimmer Hot Foil System. You can find them in my Playlist for "Glimmer Hot Foil System". Just make sure to choose the video with English voiceover :)
I finally got this system and I'm so excited to know I can try embossing folders too as I have a LOT of them. Thank you!
Oh wow.... THANK YOU. For sharing this test. It is brilliant thinking I guess! 👌
Great tips!! Finally, I can use my embossing folders also. I will try it out, thanks.
That is amazing. I would have thought the heat would be bad for the plastic embossing folders, so I would have been too chicken to test it out. Kudos!

Wow! I would never have thought of using my embossing folders like this! Absolutely fantastic video 😀
WOW ! I just got my Glimmer can hardly wait to test my dies and now folders. Thank God for creative minds like yours.
Who knew about all these alternatives. Thanks for showing us how to create with the foiling machine
I just ordered my machine...can't wait to get it so was looking at videos...wow...I cant believe you were brave enough to try this I would have thought it would melt the folder...but I'm glad you were cause this is awesome! Thank you! Love this idea!
What a great idea. Pinkfresh has just brought out a flat plate for beautiful results with the negative foiling.
I know 😁👍🏻 It has finally arrived on the Danish market and I ordered it yesterday 😁
Your video just popped up in my feed and I can’t wait to try this with MY machine and different sandwiches !! I was VERY impressed with how they turned out….
Thank you for sharing all your tips and the results ❤

You are so welcome! :)
Awesome!
WOW! This is awesome! I would not have ever thought to use my embossing folders in this way!!!! Thank you so much for sharing 💕
Thank you for this idea! I never would have thought to try this, but it worked beautifully.
wow that was amazing never occured to me to use an embossing folder - or a metal shim
Such a great way to get more use out of embossing folders
Yes, indeed it is Tracey :D
They turned out great Pia TFS sweetie 😉👍💝💐
Thanks to you too, sweetie :D
Really good videos. very clear and concise . Great to see how embossing folders can have another use. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and you are most welcome 😁
You got really good results, your video was very well put together. Thank you so much
Wow. Great idea and very good video. Thank you for sharing.
I have so enjoyed these videos... thank you
Glad you like my videos!
I just found your channel!!! I have a lot of embossing folders and I do not use them much, but I will now!! Thanks for sharing!!
this is amazing!! I wish I could think out of the box like this!!
Jaw dropping! Thank you so much for sharing!!!!
Great video. If you get the Pinkfresh studio full glimmer plate, you can use your left over foil. Jennifer Mcguire has a nice video on it.
Hi Brenda, Thanks for the tip! I actually already have the full glimmer plate from PFS. Just haven't made a video using it yet :)
Use the negative with a blank toner sheet or a page with embossing ink on it 😎. Great video!
WoW! Je suis très impressionnée. Merci beaucoup pour cette superbe vidéo.
Wow. Awesome. Thxs for showing us how to do it
Ty so much ❤❤❤ love it
Thank you for showing us how to do this.
You are so welcome Mickee. So glad you liked it 😁
Great tutorial, thank you for showing your process. This is absolutely going on my to do list, right on #1 👍
New subbie here! I love this technique! What a great idea you came up with! Thank you!
Thank you for this tutorial!!!
How does the foil turn out if you sandwich the paper between the folder, so you are using both front and back?
Brilliant!!
I have several cards on my blog where I use the negative foil... printer paper on heat platform (so not to get the grid design from platform)...negative foil...card front...then build your sandwich a bit more.
Ohhh, that I will have to try out. Thanks for the great tip, Laura :D
Thank you for teaching me a new trick! I am doing this with my sizzix poinsettia folder. Ty
Charlene, you are most welcome 😁
mille mercis
Wow Amazing 😮 love your video
Yes, another lady I follow did this too. Can’t remember her name tho. Cool!
They are beautiful. Thank you
Thanks Sue :D
How is it that the heat doesn't affect the embossing folder? Amazing.
Genialt Pia 🙂🙂😍 Imponerende resultater synes jeg!!
Tak Anne-Mette :D
Inspiring! Please let me know about utilizing the negative space on the foil remnants, thank you 💝

Finally someone used the big shot with the glimmer machine...thank you very much! Do you have any other tips or videos?
Thank you Patty :)

I have the same votive holder
Virkelig flot 😍
❤
Thanks for sharing this technique! What type of white card stock are you using?
wow, it is getting to be too much to remember, but fun I suppose.
Wouldnt the heat from the glimmer machine melt the folder as it is made of plastic??
Hello! Whats happen to the negative foil? Can we use? Thanks
Would this work with 3D folders???
Hi Holly, I am not so sure this technique will work with 3D embossing folders. Reason is that the pattern in 3D is on several levels, whereas it needs to be 2D for the impression on the foil to be good. But I cannot be a 100% sure. Why don't you give it a go and test it out :)
If you do, please let me know how it went :)
Have your embossing folders warped?
I have not experienced any warping in my embossing folders.
Do you know if
Do you know if you have to use dies that are gold for hot foiling. I heard that silver works ok also
Hi Bunnie, you can use all colours of wafer thin dies for hot foiling. They do not have to be gold to work with Hot Foiling :) I have already made a couple of videos showing the use of wafer thin dies with the Glimmer Hot Foil System.
