Thank you so much for this video, I learned Amazon had sent 60lb paper instead of the product I ordered, so my project wasn’t working. I was able to locate 100lb through Target (of all places,) online, trying it now as I rewatch your video, it works like a dream, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
Nichol, I learned so much from this video, and also then had to go and order the butterflies!!! Also, helpful to see the foil colors - some must-haves there. Love all your videos; thanks so much for all you do for us. {{{HUGS}}}
I'm getting my Glimmer system today!!! I just checked out Pinkfresh Studio, to this point I had never heard of them so thank you thank you thank you thank you!!
Nichol, you are just as pretty as your voice is. I always enjoy watching you create cards and teach us new techniques. I’m hoping to get a foiling machine by Christmas.
I thought i didn't need this machine in my crafty collection but a while ago i decided i did need it 🤣 so i am slow getting along with the trends 😂 and now i saw this awesome live and i know i really need it. Getting myself this awesome machine for christmas. Thanks for this amazing live video that i could watch in the replay 💗 i always adore and love your videos. They just make my day. Wishing you a lovely day x
This was so fun. I just need to dig out my big shot machine (I've been using my Cuttlebug). Can't wait for my foils and solid plate to come in. It is such a game changer. Thank you so much, Nichol.
Thank you, Nichol, for all the foiling tips. I just received my Spellbinders Glimmer hot foil machine and hope to do lots of foiling for my Christmas cards. Thank you again!
Watching on catch up, thank you for showing how to foil, I’ve been thinking about buying this glimmer system for a while now. And this video makes me definitely want it lol your amazing nichol to watch and I learn so much from you, so thank you very much 💗
I just got the Glimmer machine 2 weeks ago and just ordered the solid plate. Can't wait to get it. I am obviously just learning. But hoping to get some Christmas cards made. Wish me luck!
No foiling works with an Empress. Well you can use the Empress with the Duo Gel that doesn't require heat but only requires pressure.If you want to ink blend color to those letters from the "waste" foil, if you don't like the white showing. Thanks for a Great video Nichol 🤩
Coming in as part of the replay crew, and your cheery greeting made my morning! Sadly, my local retailer said that the Spellbinders Glimmer isn't available for export to my country. So....I'm just watching you ladies and dreaming aomedaybit becomes available.
I have the glimmer but didn't have much luck .so haven't done much .maybe because I use my big shot. My local hobby lobby have the spell binder. Hammer mill can be bought at local offic stores
Thanks for doing this Nichol! I think the area that didn’t foil on the butterfly was from the sticker on the foil, as it was a new roll. Just got my Gemini foil system and hope to play with it next weekend.
It was the impression of the tape/adhesive that was on the holographic foil for packaging purposes that transferred to the butterfly background. I had my fingers crossed it would not mess up the butterfly
Thanks so much or showing us so many amazing samples of foiling! I had my machine for over a year before I started using it ... it took Pinkfresh coming out with their great products to get me started.
Kristina Werner has been using an Empress and I think Jennifer McGuire as well. I have a Big Shot and the Glimmer works great and I haven't needed a shim with it. Mind you, I haven't done a lot of foiling but really like it.
My son bought me a ream if the hammermill cardstock 110lb for $13 and change off Amazon and paid a few $ for fast shipping and got it same day otherwise I would have to wait almost a week so it was worth it to me. Haven't foiled with it yet but wanted to let you know
What a great video and tutorial! Thank you so much! I am looking forward to incorporating foil for my Christmas cards this year. I was wondering, if internationals (so am from Germany) will be able to join your stamptember giveaway? I would be very happy to pay postage myself.
The mistake in foiling was from the tape that was on the new roll of foil at 56:10. I watched you cut down the center of the tape but you didn't remove the tape from the new foil roll. My husband helped me figure this out.
I just ordered the butterfly set today. You are making me want the alphabet and dies and the solid plate. So bad for my budget. Who am I kidding? What budget?
I just got mine. Thank you for posting this. I have a vagabond 2. Is anyone knowledgeable about using this in that machine? When backing out it is like bumpy, but not going in? Help?
I dug out my Gemini Foil Press machine after watching the video. I noticed that there is a solid metal plate included with it. Does anyone know if it can be used to foil the negative? I have not tried it yet. I am waiting for the sentiments foil plate and die.
I have a Gemini Foil Press too, you mention a solid metal plate - are you referring to the thin metal plate, because I assumed that was a shim. Maybe you received a plate that I didn’t receive … is the plate you’re using as thick as the plate Nicole is using in this video ? I’m really curious !
@@christinecutler4021 - did you buy the solid plate separately ? I thought the thin plate was just a shim, but my Foil Press didn’t come with another metal plate. Does Gemini sell them ?
Please don't edit the lives, that's half the fun! I personally would rather you spend the time you would be editing showing us cool things or having that time for you and your family. Of course such things are up to you, but editing a live to me takes a lot of the fun of it being real and candid. Sorry I'm a week late, I do hope you get to read this. Crafty hugs, Angie
@@NicholSpohrLLC hahahaha my darn Kindle does auto- errors all the time! I just didn't have the time to proof read that time. ROFL, at least it was rates "G" this time!
This is one of the best foiling tutorial I have seen so far! Thank you
This is awesome! I just got my glimmer machine. I love your ideas and the cupcake holder for the alphabet is genius. GOOD JOB!

Thank you for providing such good information about using foil plates
Doing the replay! So much great info! Thank you for all your videos, they are very informative.
I absolutely love that blue background with the white snowflakes! The background reminds me of the aurora borealis!
Nichol, you are just as pretty as your voice is. I always enjoy watching you create cards and teach us new techniques. I’m hoping to get a foiling machine by Christmas.
Finally got a chance to finish the live replay! Thank you SO MUCH for all of the foiling tips! It was so fun watching you play with foil and stencil!
Mary Ann Glover - First time watching, from Georgia.
I saw another video showing the solid plate. Definitely a game changer and I will be getting one.
I wasn’t able to watch the live so watching the rerun. Nichole you are so helpful answering questions!
My husband bought me one the first year glimmer came out. Only used it once😉😉 I just bought the magnet picker upper.
I love all the foiling you did.. I absolutely love the rainbow birthday card

Thank you SO much Kellie! You are always so kind and supportive and I appreciate YOU so very much!
I have now jumped down this rabbit hole, bought my glimmer and ordered a plate and background…..wish me luck!
I had decided a while ago that I had no interest in this. Now I'm toast. I'm in love! ALL so beautiful! Totally sold 👍
Thank you, Nichol, for all the foiling tips. I just received my Spellbinders Glimmer hot foil machine and hope to do lots of foiling for my Christmas cards. Thank you again!
Watching replay, have ordered my full plate. Can't wait to play with it

Love the colors you are using Nichol!
The spot on the butterfly looks like where the half of the tape that you cut when you open the roll.
Lovely cards. Thank you.😊

I use parchment paper for my Minc- works great!
Great tip!
Watching the replay, ordered the solid plate and several other can’t wait to get them!!
Perfect timing. Haven't used my Glimmer foiling machine yet. Southern Calif is here.

I bought this set when I saw your video earlier this week. Can't wait for them to arrive.

Ordered the plate and some others pretties on Monday, but haven't received yet. Cannot wait!
Very helpful video, Nichol. How do you undock your Glimmer without shifting the cardstock or hot foil plate?
I love this. I guess the glimmer hot foil system will be on my xmas list for my husband. Lol
Thanks so much or showing us so many amazing samples of foiling! I had my machine for over a year before I started using it ... it took Pinkfresh coming out with their great products to get me started.
Just ordered the solid plate & letters. 😊 Excited
Pretty foiling❣️
Hi Nichol. New to ur channel. What is that nifty stand u use to hold all ur blending brushes? Thx. Blessed crafting! 😊
Does the Glimmer hot foil machine work in a Sizzix Foldaway?
So beautiful!
Kristina Werner has been using an Empress and I think Jennifer McGuire as well. I have a Big Shot and the Glimmer works great and I haven't needed a shim with it. Mind you, I haven't done a lot of foiling but really like it.
When you foil with the Big Shot, do you still use the platform? What’s the sandwich like?
@@sleeplessforwaytoolong you use the glimmer platform and the two glimmer plates.
@@CherylMcGregor Thanks!
Hi from Barbe. I have a. go press and foil. machine from Gemini but have not used it yet.
I wondered what the heck that solid plate was for!
My son bought me a ream if the hammermill cardstock 110lb for $13 and change off Amazon and paid a few $ for fast shipping and got it same day otherwise I would have to wait almost a week so it was worth it to me. Haven't foiled with it yet but wanted to let you know
I did exactly the same. I love it
Thank you Nichol for thanking us replay folks 😉
Hi Nicole, from So,CA
You have to practice practice I thought I would never get it to work but I have no problems now and it is so much fun
Agreed! It's SO worth the effort though!
I got notice of some parcels to pick up so I’m thinking and hoping it’s these sets
Just ordered my glimmer
I think Spellbinders merged or bought Fun Stampers Journey, so that one would be one of their machines.
I love the foiling. Why did you use the solid plate? Thank you. Love all your cards.
What a great video and tutorial! Thank you so much! I am looking forward to incorporating foil for my Christmas cards this year.

Hello! Love hot foiling!’
Me too!!
So very very beautiful
Where did you get the alphabet hot foil dies and the die cut combo
I think Jennifer Maguire has a TH-cam video on the impress. she uses that and so does Kristina Warner.
What is the brand/name of the brownish red nail polish you're wearing? OMG, I love that!
Can’t wait until tis all arrives
Question related to the solid plate: can you diecut the finished foil pieces?
Yes
FYI, I saw the Spellbinders Glimmer Foil System at Hobby Lobby for $74.99
I just got mine. Thank you for posting this. I have a vagabond 2. Is anyone knowledgeable about using this in that machine? When backing out it is like bumpy, but not going in? Help?
So pretty
How did you do the butterfly with the foil edges
it's a hot foil plate.
Nichol, how did you dispose of or donate your steal rule dies? I have tons of them I never use…thanks!
I’m in the UK and unbowed are behind the time , so I will have to wait about a year for this . So sad
Does the gold plate come with it or is it separate
It's separate from the foil machine.
What is the best paper for foiling
• Hammermill WHITE 100 LB SMOOTH Premium Color Copy Cover Paper Pack
--- ldli.co/e/7q2ekq
The cuttlebug cuts steel rule dies , you just have to find the right sandwhich. I have done it!
good to know!
Nichol do you have a platinum or Platinum 6?
What does LLC stand for?
Good Afternoon
👍
Practice practice makes oerfect
Good morning

@Lisa stewart yes the solid plate with the Go Press works the same.

@@carrie5260 the thin plate. Is only a shim. There is thicker plate (metal).
@@christinecutler4021 - did you buy the solid plate separately ? I thought the thin plate was just a shim, but my Foil Press didn’t come with another metal plate. Does Gemini sell them ?
@@carrie5260 it came with the machine, but I'm sure they can be purchased.

When you opened the foil roll you didn't remove the tape on the roll
Yep! Thank you! Lesson learned! ;)
The paper is 100 not 110
I really need to quit watching you only because I spend so money . Another great video. Thank you
