You have to be THE MOST PATIENT METICULOUS crafter I’ve ever seen. Learning this is WAY beyond my abilities or understanding. Really beautiful items. They turned out perfect!
I know, right? My mind is blown right now!!! These cards are gorgeous!! Thank you SO much for sharing these mind blowing techniques!!! My card making is soon going to the next level!
I just spent a good part of the day watching many of your foiling videos using dies, stamps, stencils - with and without a laminator or using foiling machines. These are amazing, and I think you are amazing. I don't know how you think of all of these different techniques. I feel like I just took a college course in graphic design. Thanks professor!
Thank you so much, Jennifer!!! I wanted a foil machine, but can’t afford one right now. Fortunately, I have a laminator that I’ve kept for over 20 years! So, I’m definitely going to try this technique!!! So excited & glad I don’t need yet another piece of equipment! Lol Although, I do love all my gadgets! Love your tutorials! Thanks for teaching us! Take care!
I have been watching all your tips and tricks for foiling, I finally bought a laminator last week and had success foiling my halloween witch from a diecut. Thank you.
One of the many things I love about your videos Jennifer is that you always give alternative ways to get the effects where possible, when people don’t have the equipment that you have. As always thank you for your time and inspiration x
i reallllly try hard to do that. and try to limit the videos where you HAVE to have a specific product. i know this one does focus on a couple key products (transfer gel, laminator), but i hope it is still helpful!! thank you!
Thank you Jennifer for this wonderful foiling tutorial. I have had a roll of foil for many years which I bought at a craft show. I have long forgot why I bought it and so consequently it is still in my stash. I now know what is possible. Thank you so much.
Love watching all your videos so easy to learn your great tutorials and there's no rambling so many video presentations where people go into so much details but your videos aren't full of ramblings thank you very well presented thanks
This is one of the best videos I've seen in a very long time! I can't wait to create cards using this technique and know they will be one of a kind beautiful - thanks Jennifer!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’ve been suffering from a serious lack of mojo lately and after this video I’m so freaking excited about doing this technique! I aways head to your channel for inspiration, and am never disappointed! I always learn something new! You’re pretty darn amazing!♥️♥️
It took me over an hr to get thru this videao bc you stuffed it with so much info I wanted to remember! Thanks to you, I am now ready to begin my 1st foiling today! With your thorough teaching spread out among so many videos, I'm sure I'll do just fine.
I have been watching some of your videos in the past couple of days. Wow! I just can’t believe how amazing your techniques are. Really the next level. Thank you all the way from Brisbane, Australia.
Wow, great tips & techniques. BTW, my husband loves your voice! He says of all the videos I watch (he listens), yours are the best because of your voice overs! 🥰
Wow!!!! Another 'over the top' amazing set of breathtaking cards. You truly outdid yourself with these breathtaking cards. I love the foil-look of these cards and these are all beautiful. Thank you for so many wonderful ideas/examples.
Such great timing! I just found a jar of transfer gel on clearance for $1.24 yesterday! I can’t wait to try these techniques! Another fabulous video! Thank you so much for creating and sharing you amazing videos! 🙌
Jennifer I watched your video before I went to bed last night and it BLEW MY MIND!! So beautiful, and I have all of the supplies!! Yay, doing a happy dance and can't wait to get home from work so I can play in my craft room. My mind was spinning and I couldn't get to sleep for a while. Thanks for the new foil technique!!!
Your channel is always my go to for inspiration! I've followed you for many years and watched your crafting career grow! You've bloomed into a card making phenom!!☺
Love all these different ways to add foil. Thank you for always giving us so many different options to create beautiful cards without expensive equipment. Blessings
All of these card's are absolutely georgous and stunning I just love watching your channel you always give great advice and ideas thanks for sharing and thanks for the tips that you always give
Dear Jennifer, I love that little giggle in the middle of your video! I have so much fun with all your techniques and your giggle made me laugh! Thank you so much for all you do!!! Off to play!
Hi there. The things or methods or sheer ingenuity! that we (me) don't think of, amazes me !! Then you come along and life changes for the better :-) :-). I try and think outside the square myself but I "missed the boat" here with these lovely, reasonable methods. :-) :-).
Jennifer you never cease to amaze me with your ideas for all different crafty products. Unfortunately, the opal foil is out of stock, but I will be picking some up when it comes back in! I really love how these cards turned out. I have some stencils that I have yet to use so I will be trying those really soon! Thank you so much for the inspiration you have created by doing this video tutorial! These are simply awesome! ~😺Katz
Thank you Jennifer for another brilliant tutorial. You tutorials are always well planned and clearly explained. Well done. I have just purchased some Decofoil Transfer Gel Duo and I can't wait to give your ideas a go.
These are all so beautiful. (I love the SSS toner sentiments, they would be awesome to have.) This is a fantastic release and you have shared so many ideas for us to try out.
These are beautiful cards. I am anxious to do some of them with some of the dies I have. Also, on the toner sheets that do not have sticky on back, couldn't you use double sided tape on the back before you cut out the dies and then you can just peel of the back and you have the sticky to lay on the card. I just love your videos. You explain what you are doing so it is easy for anyone to do the techniques. I could watch a different video at least several times a week.
Super FUN cards! I love the technique you share by using the copic markers. I actually love all the techniques! I am looking forward to foiling with stamps since I really appreciate the foil look. Thank you Jennifer, you're awesome!!!
I use the magical GLAD Press n Seal that Jennifer's husband invented (I know, right) to hold my die cuts, instead of purple tape. I recently made several posters for a party using text die cuts, and it would have taken forever to get them lined up and glued down. Tape down a sheet of Press n Seal sticky side up. Once you have all of your die cuts arranged how you like (backwards, of course) you can glue everything all at once and don't get glue on your fingers!!! PLUS, because the Press n Seal does just that, everything is held down and won't curl or warp while it's drying. It releases from cardstock AND paper beautifully, without leaving residue. I'll tell you, that stuff is genius. I don't use it in the kitchen though😉
I’m sitting in the hospital, far away from my card room! Girl, my husband is going to kill me when We get home & he sees the literal piles from Amazon & Simon says...I cannot wait to try these techniques out!!!!
Again, lots of great tips, thanks Jennifer! I have two questions. 1. Why were you laughing when you applied ink to the "You matter to me" background stamp? Was it because you "flashed" the lid? I thought that was amusing. :) 2. Can you run the paper with transfer gel more than once through the laminator? For example, can you cover up a part of the gel with foil, run it, then cover another part with another foil, and run again? Anyway, my favorite card is the one with the opal foil. It is truly gorgeous!
Jennifer, when you run your cardstock through the laminator to straighten it, are you using the heat setting or the cool setting? And if you are using the heat setting, how long are you letting the laminator heat up? I am just now learning the foiling process and I really like making my own stencils as I have tons more dies than stencils! Thank you!
I’d think a plastic kitchen bench scraper (used for dough) would work for scraping stencil gel, too. Just don’t use it for food. You could find one in most kitchen stores or probably Walmart.
I am from malta...can you pls tell me from where I can buy the transfer gel you used from... can't find it anywhere...thanks for your help...your work is great
I’m loving your videos, thank you so very much for sharing your amazing talent. I’m a little confused with all the beautiful foils available. Are the heating foil & the non-heat foil (like your other video I’m just about to watch) the same foil? Or do I need different foil types depending on whether I’m using the laminator/toner technique or the other method? I hope this makes sense and can’t wait to play with this technique! ❤️🇦🇺 love from Australia x
It is confusing because we have so many beautiful options these days. They are not the same. There are toner activated foils and heat/pressure activated. The former goes through the laminar and the latter is for machines like Spellbinders Glimmer system.
Thanks so much for sharing Jennifer, you’re always so inspiring and generous with the information and time you share. Also, I wonder if the ThermoWeb foil would work with embossing ink and then ran through a laminator, I may have to try this, after all, what would it hurt?!
Beautiful cards!! Got a question- can you use this with layering stencils? Or would applying the second layer and the heat the second time mess everything up? Have you tried that at all?
I wish there was a LOVE button!! Your work is so beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your tips and tricks.
You have to be THE MOST PATIENT METICULOUS crafter I’ve ever seen. Learning this is WAY beyond my abilities or understanding. Really beautiful items. They turned out perfect!
Wonderful video, cards and techniques. Thanks Jennifer.
My Lord girl, you have to be the most INTELLIGENT crafter in our industry....beYOUtiful cards and as always, thanks for sharing, Jennifer!
how kind of you!
I know, right? My mind is blown right now!!! These cards are gorgeous!! Thank you SO much for sharing these mind blowing techniques!!! My card making is soon going to the next level!
She is brilliant and an ENGINEER to boot 🙋🏻♀️ !
I love this technique. I was going to buy a foil machine . You have just saved me £129.
THANK YOU😘
Great video in every aspect - I’m so inspired to try these techniques today!
Another amazing technique to make your elegant cards. Thanks for sharing these beautiful cards.

That is too cool hiding your messiness under another piece that has been stenciled! Genius!! Thanks for the fun video!!
I have been watching all your tips and tricks for foiling, I finally bought a laminator last week and had success foiling my halloween witch from a diecut. Thank you.
That's great!!! 🎉
Thank you very much. I love these techniques. Your mind works in ways that just blow my mind. Creative is not strong enough to describe you.
One of the many things I love about your videos Jennifer is that you always give alternative ways to get the effects where possible, when people don’t have the equipment that you have. As always thank you for your time and inspiration x

All of these are brilliant. My favorite was coloring the foil with Copics. Thanks for sharing.
I love how technical your brain works! ! ! Genius
Thank you Jennifer for this wonderful foiling tutorial. I have had a roll of foil for many years which I bought at a craft show. I have long forgot why I bought it and so consequently it is still in my stash. I now know what is possible. Thank you so much.
So many beautiful cards, so many helpful hints.

You are AMAZING! Thank you so much for the step-by-step. It helps a novice like me to attempt something like this.
Wow! Alcohol ink on the silver foil is the very best technique to me, although I LOVE the way you make your own stencils!
I have been watching some of your videos in the past couple of days. Wow! I just can’t believe how amazing your techniques are. Really the next level. Thank you all the way from Brisbane, Australia.

Thank you for sharing! It’s another great way to use up my foils in a different way!
These are so beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful ideas & tips :)

Love all of your technique and cards...thanks for sharing so many ideas....
Wonderful techniques Jennifer! Thank you!
love your videos, thanks for all the hard work you do. just ordered transfer gel. can't went till it gets here

Great techniques! Thanks Jennifer!
Beautiful cards. Thank you
Wow! I love everything you do. Yay, God Bless.
These are so pretty!
Great tutorial for my stencil stash. Thank you!
Mind. Blown!!!! 🤯
Gorgeous!
I’m sitting in the hospital, far away from my card room! Girl, my husband is going to kill me when We get home & he sees the literal piles from Amazon & Simon says...I cannot wait to try these techniques out!!!!
i hope you are ok!
Wonderful technique. Thank you.
Wow so cool!
Thank you so much for the fabulous ideas with foiling!

Again, lots of great tips, thanks Jennifer!
I have two questions. 1. Why were you laughing when you applied ink to the "You matter to me" background stamp? Was it because you "flashed" the lid? I thought that was amusing. :)
2. Can you run the paper with transfer gel more than once through the laminator? For example, can you cover up a part of the gel with foil, run it, then cover another part with another foil, and run again?
Anyway, my favorite card is the one with the opal foil. It is truly gorgeous!
because i said simon says stamp several times in a row and got tongue tied.
not sure if you can run through a few times. worth a try!
Amazing!!! Thanks
I am so in love 😍😄
Very pretty... Thanks Jennifer
Amazing! Thank you!
Hello, love your videos! The transfer gel is no longer available on simonsays website. Do you recommend another product? Thanks
Love it ! I will be trying this.
Jennifer, when you run your cardstock through the laminator to straighten it, are you using the heat setting or the cool setting? And if you are using the heat setting, how long are you letting the laminator heat up? I am just now learning the foiling process and I really like making my own stencils as I have tons more dies than stencils! Thank you!
I use the heat setting and let the laminator heat about for about 10 minutes.
Brilliant!
so fabulous😍
I have plenty of time but no patience🤪. Your cards are very pretty
trade ya!? ha
I’d think a plastic kitchen bench scraper (used for dough) would work for scraping stencil gel, too. Just don’t use it for food. You could find one in most kitchen stores or probably Walmart.
yep!
Wow excellent 😍😍😍
I am from malta...can you pls tell me from where I can buy the transfer gel you used from... can't find it anywhere...thanks for your help...your work is great
Why not laminate the paper before cutting it to make the stencils?

I would love to see you making a wedding card invitation.
Beautiful cards!! Got a question- can you use this with layering stencils? Or would applying the second layer and the heat the second time mess everything up? Have you tried that at all?
hmmmm maybe? usually when you run something through again, a bit of the shine goes away, but not much. would be great to try!
What notecards do you use / buy? I can only find card stock and not the folded card with the envelopes?
