Aluminum Foil Meets Embossing Folders!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 มิ.ย. 2024
- Everyone uses aluminum foil in their kitchens, but did you know you can use it in your cardmaking too? I show how to emboss foil to make beautiful backgrounds or stunning design elements. You can use any embossing folder, not just the ones that look like metal plates. In my video, I show how I make the foil embossed pieces; even die cut shapes! As always, there are plenty of card samples to inspire you to give this a try.

Hi there! I’m from New Orleans. I’ve just discovered your channel. I love your ideas! Thanks so much for sharing!
Welcome Carla! I am thrilled you found my channel and I hope you like my other videos too. It is always so wonderful to hear from people who enjoy my work. If there is anything you need or want to see if future videos, please let me know!
Now I will decorate my envelopes
Great!! It’s fun to receive a decorated envelope!
Loved them all. Especially the gold one. I am a new subscriber in Australia. Ruth down under.
Hello Ruth from down under! What part of Australia? I have friends in Eastern Australia, but I've only been to Perth and southwards - I so want to come back! Welcome to my channel and am so glad you liked my cards! Hope you like some of my other videos too!
Hello from Dallas, NC
Hello Cindi! I used to live in Raleigh, but I don’t know where Dallas is in NC! Thanks for watching.
Ist time seeing you :) Love your ideas, ty
So glad you found me! I hope you watch some of my other videos too - I always try to show lots of cards to inspire people. 😊
Thanks for sharing this! I will be using this technique on my Christmas cards this year.
You’re very welcome! I bet your cards will be lovely!
The embossed foil is so pretty. It just shows all the detail. All the cards are just beautiful, even the cutesy cards. Nice technique.
Thank you so very much! It really does show off the pattern from the embossing folder nicely!
Thank you for sharing this. I love it ❤ I will share it .
I really appreciate that! So glad you loved it and I hope you watch some of my other videos.
Greetings from your neighbor just north in Cleveland. This is beautiful! I make about 30 cards a month and have not seen this before. I'm heading to the kitchen for some foil and will do this later today. Thank you for a different technique!
I lived in Cleveland while we were waiting for our house to be built (in the Flats, right on the river and loved it)! Where are you? So happy I could introduce a new technique to such an experienced card maker! If you ever want to join us down south for a card class, let me know!
@@thepowerofacard2227 I'm in Lakewood, my hometown
I moved back here after 35 years in Florida!
@@paulawright3704 I love Lakewood! One of my team members lives there. We often go to Angelo’s pizza!
Thank you for the lesson!
So glad you enjoyed it! I hope you check out some of my other videos too - I always try to show plenty of samples.
Wow, wow, wow! You’re giving me lots of ideas…
So glad to have inspired you!!!!
I LOVE the way you show the technique and then show all the different ways you used it in several different ways!
Awww, that makes me so happy to hear! I always wonder if it’s worth the effort to make additional samples - guess it is! Hope you check out some of my other videos too as they are loaded with examples.
Don’t let the glue “foil” you. 🤣 Thanks for sharing your great video!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great tutorial ❤ many thanks for sharing this gorgeous technique ❤
Thanks so much! I’m glad you found it helpful and I hope you check out some of my other videos too!
Thanks they were all great making a list of cards when back on feet foil is top x
Hope it’s soon!
Greetings from Australia! I'm not sure if someone mentioned it already as I'm not going to read all the comments, but you wanted to know the song on the Merry Melody 3D Embossing folder? The song is Joy to the World and it's written for a 4 part choir to sing but can also be played on piano/organ or harp. Thanks for the video. Funny I bought a roll of adhesive aluminum tape from the hardware store just the other day for this very purpose! I bought a 2.5" roll as that was all I saw.
How great is that? Nobody has told me the song - would it be bad to use it at non Christmas times? You must be musical- do you sing or play or both? What part of Australia? I have friend who live on the east coast, but I’ve only visited the west coast (Perth and south). I would love to visit more!! Glad you liked the video and thanks for taking the time to comment.
@shireetropix360 - Thank you for the information on the music notes on the embossing folder. I have saw where people asked in comments & I have never saw any responses as to what the music actually was. Thank you for taking the time to respond. That is very nice to know. 💕🌻
I am on the east coast. You have SU's permission to use the embossing folder on any card you make and most people wouldn't know what the song was. If it helps any, the card on the website is upside down so neither did they I guess!@@thepowerofacard2227
😭😲
@thepowerofacard2227 I love this technique, I need to use it more often. Tfs your cards!
But, I don't think it would bad at all to use this folder on non-Christmas cards& projects. I haven't seen many embossing folders with songs on it. Just the music notes gives a suggestion that it is musical theme, no matter what it sounds like.☺️
I have cut up a pieces of scrapbook paper that has notes on it, have no idea what the song is, I just wanted to make embellishments that have notes on them, to make cards for the musical people in my life.😊 Better than cutting up actual music sheets.
I enjoyed it so much, I had to subscribe. Love all your cards!!
Welcome Linda! Glad you found me and I hope you enjoy seeing my cards in other videos too!

Thanks. I've used aluminum coke cans in my folders at times❤❤
Never tried that - now, I might have to! I appreciate you watching and sharing more ideas!

Your instructions are fantastic.
Great job⭐️

Definitely will watch more of your videos.
@@wendyzilli9735 Thanks - much appreciated!
Loved this video thank you,
So glad you enjoyed it! Hope you watch some of my others. 😉
First-time viewer to this channel, I just paused the video at 3:11 seconds in to say that I just subscribed to the channel because not only am I really interested in the ingenious idea of using aluminum foil with embossing folder but I LOVE that the creator is showing/telling us in detail exactly what materials and dimensions she is using for this project
Wow! That is such high praise! I feel very honored and thankful. I really hope you enjoy some of my other videos too. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me.
I would have thought 3D embossing folder would tear foil. Apparently not.
Beautiful cards!
Thank you so much. It does work better with heavy duty foil but I’ve been quite successful with just regular! Hope you give it a try.
Hi from Lancaster, PA. What a wonderful idea. It is a must CASE card. Thanks for the idea. Cannot wait to try this. 💝💝💝💝
Hello neighbor! I am excited you want to CASE it! That means I did my job!
Love this technique, much less expensive than buying foil cardstock! Thanks so much for this demo!!
Thanks so much! Hope you have fun giving it a try!
Wow! First time I've seen foil embossed - so effective! I absolutely love your cards. Terrific ideas, thanks so much for sharing and the inspiration! Cheers, Dotty 😊
Hey Dotty! Thanks so much and I’m glad I could teach you something new! Have fun making embossed foil - share on my Facebook group so I can see!
Oh and I love how you decorate your envelopes!
Thank you! I always love that little extra step - makes getting it in the mail even better!
Soda cans are also a great medium to emboss. You have to cut off the top and bottom to get a flat piece of can to work with. I just poke it with a scissors and begin cutting,
Yes - someone else said they did this too! That idea is new to me, so it's one I'll have to try!
Thats amazing will have to try this Many Thanks
You are so welcome! Have fun trying this!
Love it thank you,
Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Love the last one but would try a different coloured cardstock
I agree but I am not sure what color works best - maybe black for a nice contrast.
Looks interesting 😊
I hope you give it a try! Thanks for watching!
I love the ways you used the foil. You have given me inspiration and ideas for scrapbooking family photos. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas!
🥰
You are so welcome! I am glad to provide inspiration!
Great ideas with a box of R. Wr. I never knew. Thank you, Karen😊
You’re so very welcome Marsha! Glad I could bring the kitchen to your craft room! I appreciate you taking the time to watch my video and comment!
Hi neighbor, thank you for the idea!! I’m from Macomb Michigan!
You’re quite welcome! I have a big fondness for Michigan as I went to college there!
Thank you, that's great. I'm definitely going to give it a try. Blessings
So glad you liked this technique! Appreciate you taking the time to let me know that!
I absolutely LOVE the tin foil. I’ve been watching quite a few videos & this is the first one I’ve seen using the foil. I’ll definitely be doing this. Thank you!
I use my xyron machine to apply the sticky to my paper before applying the foil. This makes it more uniform
I don’t have one of those. How often do you use it? I thought it was mainly for making stickers, but it sounds like you use it more for general all-over adhesive. I might have to look into getting one - thanks for the tip.
These cards are so creative. Can’t wait to try
Thanks so much Penny!
So elegant and yet so simple. Wow factor!😊
Thank you so much! It’s definitely a good technique to use.
Karen - Hello - it is very nice to meet you virtually on you tube. I have used foil & done a few embossed cards before. But I had not done any for years. I actually had for got about them. That was years ago before I ever heard about Stampin Up. They are fun & they look nice. Your cards are lovely & that ribbon with the silver thread edge looks great with the silver foil. That ribbon is beautiful. Great colors & nice ribbon. Thank you for sharing these lovely cards with everyone . Have a great upcoming weekend. 👏👏👏💕🌻
How nice of you Judy! It is a pleasure to share an old technique again with some fresh new things. Glad you like them and I hope you give it a try! Have a great weekend too!

Never used foil to make a card. I will be using some soon
It’s always fun to try new things, especially something do easy!

Yeah! I always loved new techniques when I first started stamping, so I try to show them in my videos as often as possible. Hope you have a chance to look at some of my other ones too.
Great technique I never thought of embossing tin foil.
So glad I’ve shown you something new! Have fun with it!
Thank you so much for new techniques. Love the foil.

Great technique I'd never heard about! Thanks for sharing. 😊
Thank you Nan! Hope you give it a try!
Use it also, its great!!! Heavy foil
You’re right - heavy foil is better. Thanks!
nice technic thankyou
You’re so welcome!
Very cool technique. Looking forward to trying it. Got loads of Costco Reynolds aluminum to play with. Thank you Tina.
Ah yes, Costco sized stuff - I know! You’ll have plenty to play with and I think you’ll have fun! Thank you for watching!
Love the embossed aluminum foil! Great idea to emboss the envelope too!
Thanks Tammy! This is such a great technique because we all have foil!
I never thought of using foil on cards, and I can't wait to try it on my projects. Just found your channel and prescribed. Tfs
Thank you Joanne! Welcome to my channel and I hope I can inspire you through my other videos too!
These are super cute. Alcohol ink colors foil instantly, and dries super quick. Lots of colors available too.
Someone else suggested that - I will have to try it. Way better than waiting for the stazon to dry! Thanks for liking my cards!
Fabulous! You took the mystery out of the foil technique. I'll be able to do this now. Thank you!
Yeah!! You can do it - I'm cheering for you! Have tons of fun trying!
loved your cards and the different ways you used the foil.
Thank you very much. I always try to come up with a variety of ideas to inspire my viewers!
Beautiful cards. Could probably use some alcohol markers for different colors too. Great designs. I like to decorate my envelopes, but hadn't tried embossing the flaps, but will in the future!
Thanks! I did try Blends but they wiped off. Others have suggested alcohol inks but I haven’t tried that. Glad you like the cards and I hope you watch some of my other videos too.
Thanks for all those ideas. Love them.
Thanks Virginia! I am so glad you like them. Hope you try them out soon!
Very cute and simple! I keep learning new things! TFS🤗
Thanks! I always love trying new techniques - have fun!

Great video and appreciated such a variety of cards you did! I have used foil before like this
But you gave us more ideas of how to display it too!
Thanks Jan! I always show a variety of cards in my videos and I’m glad they are helpful!
Thanks for some great technique information and inspiration!
You’re very welcome! Glad you enjoyed my video!
hello from Australia ...never thought of using aluminum foil but its so effective ...thanks for sharing this great technique
You’re so very welcome! What part of Australia are you from? I used to live in Jakarta and have some dear friends in eastern Australia. I’ve been to western parts and would love to visit more of your gorgeous country!
That wrap has my name on literally 😂😂
That’s too funny! Then I guess this technique is definitely for you!!
Definitely I'm off my feet at mo I had full hip replacement done just got out of hospital but this will be first on my list. I'll finish watching it in min 😃 x
Hope your recovery goes smoothly! Thanks for taking the time to comment as I know you’ve got a lot going on right now!
That's a great idea and looks so pretty xx All your cards are pretty xx
I appreciate that so much! Hope you give it a try!
Beautiful simplicity
Thank you so much for the compliment and watching my video!
Hi Karen!! New subscriber here from Florida 🏝️. Love your foil technique, I will trying that soon. Can you demo how to embossed the envelope flap? Do you have a video showing it? I feel like I am going to learn allot from your channel. TFS! Hugs. Gloria 🥰🧡
Welcome to my channel Gloria! I don’t have a video of that but I will try to incorporate that soon. All you have to do is put the flap in the embossing folder and run the folder sideways through your machine. It’s not ideal because you normally want the fold to go first, but it is ok. I hope you enjoy all my videos - I have plenty!! Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself!
Hello again Gloria - took your advice and made a video showing how to emboss the flap! Check it out!
@@thepowerofacard2227 thank you for the tutorial video! 🥰
Beautiful!
I appreciate that so much!
Beautiful cards
Thanks so much - I really appreciate that!
👍👍👍👍❤LOVE ALL THE CARDS!! and love the idea with aluminum foil. Want to go do a bunch right now. Thanks for Sharing. Saving this too. Ty
I am so pleased! Thank you for taking the time to send me your comment - it warms my heart!
Always prefer double mats
I love double or even triple mats. I used to do that a lot when I scrapbooked.
Great cards!!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed them.
Really great and creative cards.
Thanks Cindy! So glad you liked them.
Lovely technique with the foil. I wonder if you could change the colour of the foil with alcohol inks, either before or after embossing. Experiment time. Thanks.
Thank you Donna! I did try using my blends markers but that didn’t really work. If you have success with alcohol inks, let me know!
Great technique… now how did you do the closure part of the envelope? All very inspiring👍
If you open up the envelope, you can place just the flap into the embossing folder. Depending on your folder, you may have to run it through a different way from ideal (which is with the fold going in first). Glad I could inspire you!
What an awesome idea! My mother in law lived in cuyahoga falls, I believe that’s right by you right?? 😊💜
Thank you! Yes, it’s just a few miles away. Have you visited?
