- TONER MAY BE TOXIC/DO NOT VACUUM. PLEASE WEAR GLOVES AND A MASK Sharing two recipes to make toner paint to use with foam stamps and stencils in the Anna Griffin Minc Machine. Update: I was informed by a viewer that toner is toxic so please take precautions and wear a mask and gloves. Thank you.
Purchase toner here on amazon
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004...
I kept trying your ideas until I had a pretty good recipe. I worked on it until I found the right measurementsd because I wanted consistancy when I made the foil glue. My recipe : 1 tsp. Toner Powder, 1 1/2 tsp. Rubbing alcohol and
1 Tbsp. Scotch Quick-dry Adhesive (lilquid) I made and stored the mixture in an old pill bottle like yours then used an old embossing ink pad to add the mixture for stamping. I also found that straight PH Neutral PVA glue for bookbinding and paper projects poured onto an old embossing glue pad works just as good. (i bought the PVA glue from Amazon for about $7.00 for 8 ounce bottle. I found the best results came from running my images through the MINC on setting #4, 2 times. Happy foiling. i hope this helps others get great results. Can't wait until Anna Griffen comes out with a foil ink pad; no more mixing. :-)

Great! Thanks for sharing your recipes. When I use toner again I will try this. Blessings.....
Could this be used with a paint brush? I really want to try this with some free hand designs.
Amy Phillips
The Ginger Owl should be fine with a brush. Just clean your brush right away after use.
Are you saying that when you used the bookbinding glue, you did NOT add toner? Thank you.
Love your videos. They are very informative. I actually visited a toner producing factory for a tour. I think the toner did not blend with the water because it is coated in plastic. To clear things up, toner is simply carbon and iron oxide blended/coated in polymer(plastic). It is not toxic to the skin and should be washed off with cool water(warm or hot can soften the polymer). It can cause trouble if breathed in LARGE quantities. Asthma and bronchitis was talked about. But, only if inhaled very regularly or in LARGE quantities. I would not worry about it while crafting. Common sense should prevail when using any crafting supply. Also, toner is electrostaticly charged, so do not vacuum if spilled...wipe up with a moist cloth. Otherwise you will ruin your vacuum. I love your work, and am thankful for your videos. I just wanted to comment because there seems to be a question about what toner actually is and if it is safe. I am no expert, but I am informed. I will use the toner powder, and like with any other material that is made of a fine "dust" I will be careful not to breathe it in. Easy solution! Keep the awesome videos coming! And I hope this info helps.
JMertens Great information! I hope everyone reads this. Wow, and you had a tour - that's great. I love being informed as well and you really broke it down. Yes, toner has unique qualities so I can see whytoner tours exist. I never worked with anything like this. Please come back. Blessings...
JMertens Thank you for that information.
So glad to find you this day after Christmas 2019! Santa brought me a minc machine! Your video is so helpful. You are so fun to watch because you are like a scientist mixing and trying all kinds of things! And they work!!
I thought I would never find this! My grandgirl was playing with my foiling things yesterday, and I got to thinking about making a toner inkpad for stamping. I was pretty sure that I remembered alcohol, but had forgotten about the glue. You are now bookmarked! And I feel a serious playdate coming on😉
Thank you for this! I appreciate all of the time you put into test your theories and sharing your results. I can't wait to try this myself!

This just changed my whole world. Thank you!!
+Jeni Zook
I hope it works for you. Blessings....
I love the way you experiment. It really helps. You are such a sweet lady. God bless.
Why thank you for your sweet sentiment. Blessings...
I watched your video and made my own toner paint and I like the one with the glue the best. Thank you so much for sharing this because there was no way that was going buy a new laser printer. or go to an office supply store to have toner sheets and designs made.
Yea! So happy you have a formula that works. Blessings....
I just discovered your channel with your Empress videos but keep re-finding your videos because I also just bought a Minc. Found the big one on sale for $60. What a good idea to make your own toner medium for foiling. Guess I'm a subby now. 🙂
Oh, also, I have a lot of those old-style brass stencils I have packed away then unearthed a number of times. I am anxious to see if you do a video with them and your toner paste!
Omg !!! I saw heidi swapp toner pads but i dont live in USA and i was thinking of trying the toner inks myself but didn't know whether they would work. Now i see your video and omg it was way long ago and you have thought about even the pen version of it!!!! You should have created that one ☝️ loved your experiment and your channel 🥰
Thank-you for saving me so much time! Great video…❤
hey way to go!!! love how they came out!!!
jeanheming Thank you much. Blessings....
Thanks so much for the great video. I can't wait to try this. Way to go!
Obrooks7701 Thank you much. Please let me know how it turns out. Blessings...
I was informed by a viewer that toner is toxic so please take precautions and wear a mask and gloves. Thank you Wendy.

Genius!
I'm going to have a go at this. I have an old laser printer, that doesn't work, so will use the toner that's still in the cartridge!
Thank you 😀
Wendy brown Let me know how it turns out. Thanks for watching...
You are so smart. Thanks for your experiment.
Thank you for such kindness Dawn. Blessings...
You’re awesome for sharing!

Thank you Shay for watching and commenting. Blessings...
Hi. I recently watched a UA-cam video that showed using stamps with clear embosser after you heat it up with a heat tool you can send it through the minc and it will foil it
Lisa Sharp Thanks for commenting. Yes and I love that technique. I referenced Jennifer's video in my introduction. Thank you for informing me. Blessings.
So interesting!
Thank you. The original video that I had watched, I cannot find again. This person said that she had done a lot of research and that the toner would is not harmful. I don't know. I did not do the research but I would still be very carefull, just in case. I sure wish I could find that video again. any way. Thank you for your video. I had bought my toner on ebay and since I can't find the video, I figured it was a waste of money. I am glad that I still have it. I will definately give this a try. Now, I have a tip for you. I bought some of the fuseable web at Joann's. The kind used in sewing. I used one of my dies and cut it out of this webbing. Put it through my laminator and it turned out beautiful.
+Joyce B That's interesting. I will try that. I have a lot of stabilizers and i think i have some fusible webbing too. So you die cut the fusible webbing, then send the die cut piece through the laminator?
biblescraps Yes mam. I just place the die cut piece on the card where I want it to be, cover it with the foil, put it in the carrier sheet and send it through. I hope this will work for you. I use this instead of buying the transfer sheets that Deco Foil sells.
I think I'm missing a step. If you don't mind can you provide me the steps again. Blessings....
biblescraps I first take the die that I want to foil, and cut out the webbing with it. Leave the protective paper on it at this time. You will end up with a very thin piece of webbin cut out in the shape that you want. Take the protective cover off and lay the webbing where you want the foiled immage to go on your card. Place the foil over it and put it into the carrier sheet. then run it through your machine. I hope this helps.
+Joyce B Thank you, I'm going to try it. Blessings...
Have you tried screen printing with this? I want to make y own stencils and screen print onto envelopes then foil. Wondering if that will work
Great video!! Shanta
shtanah Thank you Shanta. Blessings...
Hi Anna, can you use "used" toner for this - ie the toner that goes into the disposal unit of a photocopier?
Wow, I made my toner as a paint then I come across this I am Kinda surprised It is a different recipe as I guess the toner has to be a bit thinner. I will be doing this. thanks
Hey, black toner is carcinogenic, you really should be wearing gloves and a mask, and you'll probably get itchy after messing with this stuff, I know I am... I'm starting to make ink and paint with toner powder aswell, very useful, Thanks.
Do you have an update on this technique?
Great idea! Thanks for sharing. :-)
MOst welcome Donna. Blessings...
WooooHoooo!!! Love it!
+Barbara Clouser
I hope it works for you. Blessings...
Do you think I could mix toner with clear oil based block printing ink? I don’t have amazon but I love the idea of painting with the toner! But I also have a lot of block prints I’ve carved and I would love to use those.
Does anyone know if toner hurts the poly stamps long-term? Like staz-on cleaner does.... 🤔
very clever thks
Jacquie Frosinos So welcome. Thanks for commenting. Blessings....
Forgot to add Please Please use gloves googles and some kind of mask that covers your nose and mouth. I didnt and that toner is extra fine dust i was coughing my toenals for over a week
ooooo so glad you shared your video!!!!! Where did you get your toner?
Elon QP Greetings, I have added the link to purchase in description box. Thanks
biblescraps Thank you!
my mind is a whirl of possibilities ok 1 could you use hair dye toner 2 could you use the colour refill toners i will be testing these ideas when i get my Anna Griffin Minc Machine
+madhatters crafts
Please provide an update with your testing. Interesting. Blessings....
i wonder how the alcohol mixture would do in a diy ink pad
+HandmadebyAmber
I think I tried it out and it dried out. However, I don't recall what type of ink pad I used as different pads might give varying results. I might try out different pads in the near future. Thanks for commenting. Blessings...
Where do you buy toner from? I have googled for ages and can't find it in the UK :(
Hi Susan, I'm based in the UK. I ordered some from Amazon.. it was about £9 .
This is what I searched for:
Printing Pleasure Black Refill Toner Powder 150g compatible with Brother Printers
Quite nice---great job---did you ever think about being a chemist---lol---going to try this after you do the other trials--hugs to you---
Patsy Gamble Awww, thanks chemist maybe a crafting one lol. Thanks for commenting, blessings..
I wonder how toner would act with vegetable glycerin 🤔
Rachel King did you try it? Curious of the results!
I was just wondering the same thing
Did you use the Minc Foil or another brand? I mhope this will work for me!
I primarily used the minc foil and a foil made by Cricut for the Yudu. Blessings...
Thank you. I read that Minc foils wont work with anything except toner printed copies from laser printers from a copy shop. I have had some printed and it still won't work. I am going to try your recipe and will let you know if it works for me!
Hello! Thank you for trying this out!! Can I asked what your formula was for thickening your toner+alcohol concoction was? Does it work better? And have you considered the Crayola Empty Markers for making a toner pen: shop.crayola.com/toys/refill-packs/creative-maker-refills/marker-maker-refill-pack-7470550002.html THANKS!!
Im thinking that the alcohol is flammable..and the minc is hot....
Safety should always be considered. I would say this is low risk. Thanks for sharing. Blessings...
lol "toners special"
+Cheri Russo
Smile! Blessings...
toxic scary, ok I will keep using the pen glue idea..be safe with it
