Wow, finally seen this video (have a 3 year old that wants somuch attention and still hardly sleeps, so don*t have much time or energy) ... Zillion of your foil videos to watch,... LOL, l love all your videos, learn sóóó much, so looking forward to learning so much more, so amAzing, thx so much!!!! 👍

I totally agree with you about the foil! Creative Vision has absolutely the best price for the huge roll you get! I had no clue you could foil with the texture paste! Thank you so much for your videos!!

i think in a gina k video she also uses parchment or something for extra pressure through the laminator

They are beautiful.

I like your comparing products. I really like the new tricks.

Ooh pretty. I love all that sparkles!!!

Nice to see the finished results. I think my favorite is the Gina K.

Wow, these turned out beautifully. I especially love the shard foil.

Those are so pretty

Thank you so much for this tutorial! You have helped me tremendously with what you have shown about the foils and foilables! Many thanx!

Wow how wonderful to be able to have so much crafting stuff to try out and be able to buy!!!

I watched last nights video at like 3:30am when I was wide awake and I was so happy to see today’s finished product. I think all the glitter gel and paste combos were very nice. I think the gina k gel turned out the best. As far as the foil, the cvs was by far, in my opinion, the better of the two. Stunning results! Thanks so much for this comparison video. It’s so helpful to know how the product really works before you invest. I just ordered those stencils and I can’t wait to use them. They are really beautiful as well. You’ve got six beautiful cards to finish! Great job Nancy!

Watched the live yesterday and really enjoyed it!! I appreciated the comparison. Thank you for the tip on the Creative Vision foils!! I had stopped foiling due to the ridiculous prices on tiny amounts of foils.

All came out very well but I the large faucet one in the roll for over all shine. Thanks for sharing have a great weekend.

Hello Nancy nice great idea to use the foil, thanks for this wonderful video

Beautiful! And thank you for the tip of using the tacky glue!

Very Pretty!

Appreciate your honesty with brands. With the rising costs of our supplies, we need to get more bang for our buck. I think sometimes we get too enamored with brands and forget there are comparable products. Reason why your (and others) product comparisons are SO important. Thx 🌻

I love watching your videos you are awesome such a big help. Thank you

I have had that happen also with my gina k foil mates. I sent her an email with a photo of what it did and they advised I increase my heat. I have a lot of her foil items and I love her and her stamps, etc. But these foil mates leave something to be desired. I hate to say that but totally agree with you.

Great Idea and Great Instructions!!!

I just discovered your videos and I Really like your style! Thanks for doing such a gr8 job!!!

So pretty.

So happy your video popped up, I love Gina k but I had trouble also with the toner cards I used the happy birthday ones. I also have that ranger paste and was not sure how to use it, so now I will. I really really would like to see a video on how to use the negative left over, I followed some instructions, but they were tossed away due to it being crinkly. I also had a very difficult time with overlay stamps, never will use them again. Will subscribe love comparison videos

Hmmmm, I never noticed a problem with my GK designer toner sheets. I think they work great, IMHO. But different people get different results. I have never heard of the other brand of foil. My stores don’t carry it. I have some Heidi Swapp foil which comes in the roll. But hers is sooooo thin I hate working with it. The DFoil is much thicker & my fav. I don’t have room to store rolled products so the sheets are better for me. I loved hearing your opinion on the foils and your tricks. I must say I have never allowed my items to cool before revealing as I can’t wait! Lol No problem doing that.

I'm SO glad I saw your video! I've never heard of Creative Vision Stamps and am buying that Crystal Ballroom foil asap. Loved seeing the comparisons- I am definitely subscribing to your channel! :)

I had seen Lindsay at The Frugal Crafter show foiling with gel mediums. You can even use something like Liquitex or Golden Gloss Gel Medium for this. I think they have a better price point than the gloss texture paste, do the same thing, & you can find them easily at places like Michael's & Hobby Lobby. (I think that, of those 2, only Michael's sells the Golden brand. Just FYI.) The important thing is that it has to be a GLOSS finish. Matte just won't work. Thank you for showing your creations! I love that foil from Creative Visions--sooooo shiny and interesting! Thanks for the comparison of prices vs. what you get on the foils, too. Hope you have a wonderful day! :)

Excellent, thank you

I'm happy this video popped up in my 'recommmends' list because I bought a jar of Ranger Texture Paste somewhere in the past year .... & am ashamed to say that I still haven't used it.. until now! What a great idea.. & I especially like your frankness about the foil papers as I have a bunch but haven't really used them .. because of the waste. I'm happy to see that the rolled foil will turn out just as good as the expensive sheets do ... & the shim (& glue) suggestion is perfect as I bought a laminator from Amazon & couldn't figure out why I kept getting missed pieces. Thanks tons.

Really pretty. Just came across this video and subscribed. TFS

I wonder if my transfer gel will work with stencils? Must try!

great info thank you

Awesome video, just found ur channel, and subscribed! I love “real comparison” videos! Sometimes the real pros make everything look much easier, so seeing tips and tricks from you and others is great! I’m so glad u told us about the big roll, I bought some of Gina k foil mates and toner sheets, but haven’t tried them? Maybe I’ll try a shim like others have suggested. I do have a question? Before Pixie spray came came out, I saw people using Krylon Re-positional spray, have you ever tried that? I’d love to know.Thanks again! Liz😊💗👍🏼

Good job comparing.

Thanks for the comparison and the tip about the glue pen - I never thought of that! I have found the same thing with the Gina K toner sheets and it's very frustrating. I wonder if adding a cardstock shim would do any good, I haven't tried it yet. I love the Creative Vision foil - it's gorgeous!

You can use a good quality laminator, preferably a Swingline. Let your laminator heat up for at least 30 minutes and use a good heavy paper shim to give it plenty of pressure.

Can I use this on a tumbler if I use a heat gun??? Just curious???

Wonderful video...I will have to check out that creative vision website and see if they can ship to Canada? Plus can you do a video with the waste product? I noticed when you were doing the tip of using the glue pen when it dried you were using the negative product of that snowflake to use with the glue pen wouldn’t that ruin the negative waste design if you take bits of it off with that glue pen tip??
