Love the idea of a "frugal crafter" it's not possible to just keep throwing money at the hobby and such a relief to find someone who understands that thank you. Love the tips in the video will be using them!

i was in the middle of researching a moderately priced inkjet printer and foil transfer machine, feeling defeated that i'd have to spend so much money... and then here you are!!! this is awesome!!!

Love, love, love, LOVE this! Thanks for your labour of love in frugality!

I need to try that with my old foil and leafing also. Thanks for the wonderful video and beautiful card!

Absolutely wonderful! Been looking for a way to do this without having to use heat laminating. I love the way using the tape and sheets work. I have a very small crafting area to work in and I don't really want extra equipment that only does pretty much only one thing. I love your crafting ideas. So glad I found your videos. Thank you for sharing. ❤️👏🏻❤️

Thanks for the alternative to using a laminator. Love the adore!

That is awesome! I have some old foils too. I just never used them much so yay for stuff comming back in fashion.

Thank you for this! I was considering a Minc, but since I don't have a laser printer I was hesitant because it is limited to their designs unless you use a toner-based printer. You saved me a boatload of money!

I have just bought a pack of foils at the pound shop so it is great to see I can use them without having to put it through my laminator, so thank you so much for this informative and inspiring video, hugz, Anne xx

Thank you for sharing. I'm going try this method. Even I have minc. Thank you Lindsey. You are so smart and clever

Looove the video thank you for sharing I do not have any fancy machines to foil this video is exactly what I needed it Thank you :)

Great to know I can have fun with the foils without the heat! Very helpful information! Feel better soon! 👍🏼

So awesome! I'm thinking I might try to make a dashboard for my planner this way.

Thank you for the inspiration and information. I have been looking for this exact type of tape, it sounds perfect !

I want to come live in your craft room for a few weeks and just have you show me all your tools!! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge in a fun and frugal way!! I am always so happy when I search for a technique and find out you have a video on it. I know I will enjoy it.

Thank you so much 4 all the budget tips !! Amazing how you think, LOVE it, such creativity !!

Thanks so much for this video. I recently discovered I can use foil without a machine and was delighted to find you have a video on the techniques. I know you will show me how-to in an easy to follow, frugal way. JoAnn had some foil on clearance and I am having such fun with this shiny new material to add to my projects. ~Marilee

This was just what I was looking for. Thank you so much!

You Rock Lindsay!!! So Happy so see this technique, love your brain!!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

Great projects Lindsay!! Thanks for sharing!

Love your tips and cards. TFS

never thought about using the spare sticky to stick on card bases and other things, will be saving it in future. I bought the big sticky sheets for use with foil and I love them.

Fabulous video!! I was going to try the laminator version (still might) but you are right you do get more bang for your buck using this method. Love it!!

I recently found a jar of variegated flakes I've had for 15yrs and planned to play with it. Glad to know it doesn't spoil. Also glad to know the Mink rolls can be used without the Mink or laminator cuze I refuse to buy more equipment. But did notice JoAnns still has jars of flakes for sell & can use coupons there for extra savings. Yippee!! Thanks for the daily lesson! Hope you feel better soon. And no your voice was not irritating.

You have all of the prequels to the latest gizmos in your brain! Frugal crafter on fire! THANK YOU!

Thanks for this video! I have some of that sticky paper and keep forgetting I can use it for foil. My foil is about 15 years old but it still looks good so I'm going to try it!

Very Helpful Lindsay. I have lot of foil but not the right printer. I do have a laminator but I love this idea the best. Thank you.

I think your way of doing this is great and less expensive. Thank you:-)

Lovely....gorgeous....loved it!!! thanks for the video

Thanks so much this was so useful I love the techniques.

another great video thanks Lindsay, Hope you feel better.

Your projects in this video are gorgeous!

So happy you made this video!!! Thanks for sharing it!!! :)

you are simply the best! loved this idea. thank you.

Great ideas, just went to punch place plus and ordered the double sided sheets. tfs Mimi

Thank you so much! This is absolutely fantastic!

Oh woooooow... I will invest in some adhesive sheets. I wanted to make cards with foil THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Always Great Tips Lindsay! TFS

Thanks for such a great vid! I don't have a minc/etc or toner printer so I've never done much with foil. But I have a bunch I got on clearance ;). Also like the idea of using the tape bits to adhere the card base.

hi Lindsey, I missed this one it slipped through my net, really enjoyed, I have a class these days with young adults learning difficulties and this would make a great options for valentines cards for them to make which is the end of the week so a timely from me and thanks as always. Hope you the family and the gang are all OK regards as always Paul from London

Oh this is too cool! I'm going to have to try it!!

love this I am thinking about doing this for some dashboreds in my planner :)

Thanks Lindsay, great tips.

Awesome ideas !!!! I can hardly wait to use these ideas on my cards. Thank You Lindsay !!! Happy Cinco de Mayo !!!

Nice job Lindsay

I have a laser printer (I make flyers for advertising square dances) but didn’t want to have to get the laminator. This is awesome!!❤️🎄

Great idea to use the scraps of tape, I never would have thought of that, It would have gone into the bin! Frugal all the way!! :D xx

Very helpful! Thanks

Oh, that looks like fun! I've never "foiled" before. That's what I love about your tutorials... I'm always learning something new to try. Thanks for all the awesome videos, Lindsay! And hope your throat feels better real soon. =)

That looks great I've always wanted to use foil but can't afford a machine, thanks to you I can try foil without the extra cost.

Absolutely genius

I like this but I was wondering if you could use a craft iron ? Because I have a tape that is heat activated and was wondering if it might work better?

Great adhesive sheets. Great price too. TFS....Chris

Lindsay, I just went to Craft Chameleon to buy some sheets and I just want to double check with you. It's the 10"x12" sheets in quantity of 5. The adhesive that I can glue to cardstock and still have the adhesive I can put foil or micro beads. Thanks ahead of time for your help and this video.

Thank you, Lindsay. I've wondering what to do with the metal leaf I've had in my stash for about a hundred years - now I know.

I just bought foil and didn't know how to use it haha thanks for sharing!

Oh my!! Lol!! I have a roll of the foil you used on the adore card!! I bought it awhile ago!! I thought it was thin metal sheet rolled up! LOL!! WELL THATS COOL I HAVE SOME!! LOL!!

Beautiful!

Fabulous tutorial Lindsay, thanks for all those great tips!! Cheers, Ginny :o)

Thank you Lindsay, I bought the Go foil machine, and have never used it.I have been looking for some way to foil without using any machine.

So glad I found this. I wonder if I can use this trick on a candle.

Thanks for another great video. :)

Since you are the frugal crafter, I thought you would like this idea. I saw on a KZread video that some people were making toner paint so they wouldn’t have to use their printer. I made toner paint with one tablespoon of PPA glue and 5 little scoops of toner on the end of a popsicle stick. I stirred it really well and painted it on a sheet of cardstock. I cut out shapes for foiling. I found out you can use that toner paint for stamping and foiling!! It works perfectly. It also washes right off the stamps and doesn’t stain them. Make a video about that! You will love it!

grat idea thanks for sharing

thank you! I was researching laser printers so I could do foiling but now I won't need one!

Wow...seems like a great, multi-use tape!!!

amazing video! :)

Great advice!

Thanks for this how-to video! I really wanted to try/do this but I didn't want to buy a laminator as they are so expensive. This great idea will allow me to give it a whirl without losing to much money, especially if I don't like it afterwords. Always love your videos, thanks a lot Lindsay!

I've seen laminators for as low as 20$ but I love the idea of using the foil without one as well. good way to start while I buy a laminator but still plan on getting it . the laminator is good for printing your own designs if you wanted some designs from online.

Great video love you so much

Would an inking brayer help apply the film firmly? I love all of the ideas you shared; thank yoy!

Wow another wonderful idea! Not keen on buying the foiling matching here ($200 AUD just silly) but I got some cheap foil on blitsy. Can't wait to try this!

What a great idea! Would this technique work on glass?

Thank you for this tip! I love the look, but didn't want to invest in a laminator, nor do I have room for one.

I have a laminator but I do like this process

Hi Lindsay, how cool! A lot better than having to get something printer by laser printer and then laminating. I think even I can manage this method with no problems :). Now I can look for reasonably priced foil and even look for faux gold/silver leaf. Thanks so much for showing us how to do this.I've got a frugal question for you...over the Christmas holidays I used a lot of tea lights so now have loads of the little metallic holders the wax is poured into. Any ideas if they can be used in a crafty way??Bejay x

Hi Lindsay, Thank you for a great video, with those foils, I love your card, Have you every thought every doing a video with your electric cutting machine? I have a Portrait machine had it for about 4 months and love it, of cause still learning but a lot of fun, Cheers Anna.

gosh I like that Ideaa!

Hi Lindsay.I love this effect,could I get the same effect using an ordinary big shot die cut machine to cut the sticky back paper,or would I need the cricut machine.I am in the uk,so not 100% sure if I can find the products over here,but I am so loving how this foiling looks,I really like the card you made,so classy.Thanks for sharing.

Hey Lindsay, I've been going nuts trying to find the exact same watercolor mop brush (white bristles) that you used in this video. PLEASE, PLEASE share the make, model number and/or size of this brush and, if you recall, where you got it. A million, gazillion thanks!! As always, LOVE the tips! 💖😉

Awesome thanks!! I like it because you can buy products not machines!

Lindsay, I have found that the Heidi Swapp foil, once applied in one of these ways (without heat), seems to be tacky to the touch, have you found that, & if so, what can be done about it? (So far, I've just applied glossy accents over anything I've foiled, which seals it in.) Thank you for sharing!

Wonder if that would would on glass stones to make pendants instead of using nail polish. Looks so pretty.

I didn't want to buy one of those new machines and this is a perfect way to do this technique. I have the Cricut, the tape and even the sheets, so I am going to make some cute bd cards for some of my great nieces and nephews. Again thank you!

Did you try this on your cricut? If so, what setting did you use and where did you get the ashes of sheets?

Riki, no I haven't tried this yet on my Cricut. If I were you I would call Cricut and ask their support team. They have answered all kinds of my crazy questions over the past...lol I am sorry I couldn't help you as I have had so much going on lately, I have had to put my projects on hold for a bit. Good luck and let me know if they helped you..Cricut also has a site on fb and you could ask one of the ladies on there if they could help you..I am not sure what you meant by "ashes on my sheets" anyway, good luck!

Thanks I was wondering if this would work.....funds are low and this is the answer?

Great ideas Lindsay!!! I'm kicking myself right now......years and years ago I used to use a similar foiling product for clothing. I had a huge box left over after those days were done (and before I got into papercrafting 11 yrs ago) I think they went to a donation place. jeez, who knew it would 'come back' on paper?! heeheehee ;) I probably donated them about 15 years ago :0

AN important question. How do you get the glue off your stamp?

Thanks Lindsay, Since I'm posting this to an older video I guess most people won't see this but in case they look up foiling like I did then maybe someone will. I knew there was a way to do this without buying another machine, lol. I also knew that you probably had a video on it, so glad my instinct was right. Love, love all your videos. BTW, I made the geli plate without the alcohol, still looks and works great! I know you like saving money and most of all saving us money, so I just wanted to remind everyone to check out ebay before they order stuff, just to check prices. I have a Scan-n-cut 2 my husband got me for Christmas last year and I love it so much. Did you ever get one? You would love it, not only can you cut out stamped images but you can scan in anything (within reason of course), including your own handwriting (or your children's), make your own custom stamps and adjust the size of anything. Sorry, I'm rambling, but even though I love it I still wanted a Cuttlebug for gorgeous dies like Anna Griffin's and quick die cuts, I didn't need the little extra space the big shot had, the convenience of it being so small that I can keep it on my work table works best for me for quick die cutting. The best deals I found were on eBay, brand new and included lots of goodies that other stores didn't, including products from Anna Griffin and a magnetic mat. That's just one example, I save tons on Distress inks too. Thanks again Lindsay for all your tricks and tips, and for your informative, cheery, and funny videos.
