CRAFTERS: How to Technique: Use Kitchen Foil with Embossing Folders for Cardmaking [43]
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 08. 2024
- In this demo I show you how I have used good old kitchen foil/tin foil/aluminum foil to make an embossed background for your cardmaking, paper crafts & scrapbooking.
I also show you how to use Gold foil to make the same embossed background and how to take the carrier sheet off the top of the foil. An ideal demo for any crafter looking for foil play and inspiration.

This was my lucky day. My daughter recently asked me if I had seen any tuts on embossing folders and aluminum foil. I had not, until today! Thank you for giving this detailed instruction on making gorgeous backgrounds for card fronts. You are terrific.

Such an easy technique but INCREDIBLE and impressive! I was going to try to find roof flashing to emboss but this looks so much easier and cheaper!
Thank you, I am pleased you like this idea xxx
I'm so doing this...never thought to use the colored foils. You could run a pigment ink pad over the surface & heat set it. Or even burnishing wax. So many possibilities! Gorgeous nails!
Thank you - yes do it, and have fun, alcohol inks as well and just enjoy xxx
Have watched your videos several times, love them all. Great ideas and beautiful cards.
Absolutely love this! I would have never thought of using regular foil that I have rolls and rolls of! Thank you!
Thank you, I am glad you like this neat trick, great for anyone on a tight budget or just wanting something different..
Thanks as always for watching and commenting, please share if you can xxx
CLEVER CLEVER GIRL!! Thank you!!!! Probably could color the foil too with archival inks! I'm going to try this now! Thanks so much!!

great video thanks x
Fabu! Ann-Marie, I want to use these embossed-foil cards to COVER FURNITURE SURFACES! It would look gorgeous... reminiscent of the turn of the century and Art Deco pieces (including ceilings) one comes along very very rarely. (It would be fabulous for boxes too.)
Give it a thought... what might be the best technique with which to PERMANENTLY ADHERE these to a surface? Obviously, I would use some sort of poly-medium as a top surface finish in order to strengthen everything (the adhesion and the embossing) and, say for a table or vanity top, I would cover with beveled glass, which would forever protect the surface. Let us know what you think, please! Many thanks, gabi
Oh I think its a great idea, to use for furniture and larger items - I agree the protection will need to be looked at and I agree about the glass top.
You could add alcohol inks for colour, to tint and stain, keeping the metallic background but the ink will just add extra interest, and use the Art Deco embossing folders for patterns from that era.. you could use it to inlay as well for furniture, like a tile effect, with coloured glass tile chips and even add colourful patterns from Art Deco colouring books for a centre focus.. see my mind is full of ideas as well.. but it sounds fab.. go for it!

Yes you are right, no nails would be harder to work with.
I am just curious about why so many skilled artist glue long nails on their fingers before going on video. Because we all know that if your fingertips is covered with long, or like some have, white, square nails (called French nails I think) it is difficult to feel and work properly. But it seems that you (almost) are all right with long nails ;)
Anyway....it is a beautyful tecnic you use and I will share with my scrapfriends and give a link. Thank you.
Thanks Melita :)
plus haha!! I can assure you my nails are 100% real, all mine and have been since I remember, I can't work with short nails !! and don't stick them on before doing any videos :) xxx
I wonder if you could glue it down instead of using the double sided adhesive sheet. Great idea!
A good strong glue would work, I use DS Tape because that's what I normally always use - I think it is what you get used to using - glad you like the idea xxx
Wow. Thanks for sharing. 😍😍
beautiful!!!
When you`re a beginner WITHOUT a BIG SHOT you can go one step further and use a rolling pin rolling it back and forth with some muscle strength and you can get a very similar result :)
Hi Ann-Marie,
I've been debating whether to buy an embossing machine, wondering if I could use them for foil (actually for thicker foil or thin metal sheeting for jewelry boxes).
Have you been able to put heavy kitchen foil through by itself?
I'm aware the embossing wouldn't hold by itself, although I've used fillers in the past.
Brilliant idea to use I'm guessing that's foiling material?
Antiquing with sulfur &/or other methods would be incredible! Far easier than doing this by hand!!!
Now to figure out how to create my own custom embossing plates & I'll be set!
Brilliant video! (Love your accent too! I guess I've been watching a lot of English videos, as I understood you just fine! )
Great that you used the same embossing folder as in other videos for comparison! That is really helpful! Thank you!
I subbed! Now I have to see what other crafty things you've compared this to! Great stuff!
From across the pond, in California,
Carol
Hey Carol! I am pleased you enjoyed this demo for the foil, I think you would find if you purchased a die-cutting/embossing machine that you will love it for using thicker foil and making a range of things from boxes to jewellery with it, here is a bit of foil inspiration for you! wefollowpics.com/new-at-cha-2014-sizzix-bezel-framelits-cut-photos-paper-arte-foil-etc-to-the-exact-size-of-our-vintaj-bezels/
Glad you understood me :) LOL and like the accent! Thanks for watching and for commenting xxx
I likes, thanks you.
fantastic
Thank you
I appreciate you taking the time to comment on CZcams however I am having trouble with my replies showing and then being deleted by YT - comments can now be made on my blog at annmariesdesigns.blogspot.co.uk
Hi Ann Marie. Just a suggestion here, are you opening your Multipurpose platform to Tab 2 when running your Embossing Folders thru the Big Shot? Because it should not be that much of an effort if you are doing it right. Just thought you might want to check on that! Love your Tutorials!! :)
+Charlotte Buckingham - LOL Thanks but my machine is very old and has alot of use, and its too loose between tabs and doing it as supposed to do it unfortunately, so I had to move to the next tab for this demo :) In fact just had new plates and its different again. Glad you like the tutorials - Thanks for watching and your comments xxx
Super
Thanks Varsha, I am pleased you like this one, its a good technique.

Very good but what foil was the gold foil please
Thank you - I have to admit I cannot remember but if you watch the full length video I think I give more details there xxx
Hi Ann~marie, I know this is a much older video but can you tell me would this work with the big rolls of DECO FOIL and what kind of FOIL did you use with the 2nd embossing folder? I don't know if I have even seen foil that has a clear carrier sheet that comes off of it. I live in the US, so maybe that is why but I would still like to know, and do you know a link or the brand you used of the 2nd foil with the clear carrier sheet that you peeled back? I also might use some Alcohol inks to color the foil..maybe..Thank you for sharing..Love your ideas.. I don't really want to use all my Deco Foil for a back ground for my Christmas cards but this is a wonderful idea!

Ann-marie, I have never used gold foil with a carrier sheet before. Can you please tell me more about that? The brand you use and where I can find that?
Thank you
+Gail Gale Thanks Gail for your comment, its funny you asking about this as I have just been planning a new up to date gold foil technique video as I have a new glue pen :) I don't know if you are in the UK or not but if you are in the UK there is a company that sells the foil in packs, for more details you can find it here - www.stix2.co.uk/index.php?route=product/search&filter_name=foil
If you are not in the UK, you could try the large auction site.. I use what is classed as a cold foil, this means its used with glue pens or tacky double sided tape, the glue pens you must let dry to tacky before using, double sided adhesive is great as well.. the list is endless. Then once the glue is tacky or you've used your tape, you put your foil on it, colour of foil upwards and press on top of the glue, this attaches the foil and leaves the sheet clear in the places you've used it.. I shall do a tutorial for you, will be next week now..so look out for it xxx
Thanks Ann-marie. This really helps. I am in the US.
+Gail Gale OK, I'll see what I can do :) xxx
Hi Ann-Marie. Love this video. Best I have seen. Do you know the maker and name of your embossing folder? I love it and can't find it any where I have looked.
Thank you, I am so glad you like this one, it is a great technique.
I've just checked the folder and have been racking my brains as to where I got it from but I'm sorry I can't remember, I can tell you it isn't Anna Griffin or Tim Holtz, but it was very cheap from the large auction site and it was a fleur de lys of some kind.. good luck.
Thanks for watching and for commenting xxx
Great vid...i'm in the UK..Brighton...where do you order your foil rolls from ?...if you don't mind me asking Thanks !
no adhesive sheets...so what else would work?????
I only use the double sided sheets to stick the foil down with as it gives an all over adhesion - you could use flat tape/glue anything that glues foil and then use your craft glue to stick it on to a project as normal - use your creative mind and see what you have in your stash :) xxx
What a great idea will have to give this a go thank you for sharing, is that a Yorkshire accent? I'm from. Doncaster 🙂

Me encantan estas manualidades pero no se en donde conseguir el material y clases en mexico
Gracias, me alegra que te guste esta técnica, he disfrutado haciéndolo. ¿Ha tratado de eBay y Amazon para los suministros en México? No sé si Michaels o Jo-anns tienen tiendas allí tampoco .. tal vez si alguien sabe cómo ayudar a que pueden ponerse en contacto conmigo y voy a añadir que para usted ..
Gracias por su atención y comentar, por favor compartir si se puede xxx
Thank you, I am pleased you like this technique, I enjoyed making it. Have you tried ebay and Amazon for supplies in Mexico? I don't know if Michaels or Jo-anns have stores there either.. maybe if anyone knows how to help they can contact me and I will add it for you..
Thank you for watching and commenting, please share if you can xxx
Very nice, where did you get the embossing folder? Tyfs hugs. Maggie.
❤️🥰🇨🇦❤️
Thank you, glad you enjoyed this one, to be fair it is an old one and the embossing folders were old when I made it, they will have come from ebay 😉 but I can't tell you the names of them sorry xxx
so awesome! where do you get that double side adhesive paper and the gold foil?
Thank you Jennie, I am pleased you enjoyed this technique.
Try www.stix2.co.uk for the self adhesive double sided sheets and gold foil, they post worldwide. The foil used in this technique was normal kitchen roll/aluminium roll.
Thanks for watching and commenting, please share if you can xxx
You bet. Thank you so much xoxo
Ann-marie Vaux the double sided adhesive may be purchased from Elizabeth craft designs or scrapbookingmadesimple.com
I've never seen gold foil like that. Where does one get that kind of gold foil?
This is normal everyday silver kitchen foil/aluminium, the light makes it look gold.xxx
* I'll correct myself sorry - The gold foil is a hot foil xxx
Please tell me the name of this machine. Let me know the name of this machine
I used a Sizzix Big shot - this is a die cutting /embossing machine, available from craft shops xxx
Very informing, but is'nt it a handicap with long nails?
Thanks Melita, glad you like this one, its a good technique to remember, quick & easy.
I imagine it must be a handicap not to have any nails :)
Thanks for watching and commenting, please share if you can xxx
The minute you touch them, the marks go away. Not a good idea unless is super thick. Buy metal/aluminum sheets for this project.
