Gemini Crafter's Companion Foilpress Stamp Die Elements-Ornate Swirls Background, Silver

I began by trying the stamp without foil or heat until, adding and removing different shims, the stamped impression on my card stock was perfect, then added a foil scrap to the center area and repeated the process. It didn't completely foil, so using another scrap and new card stock, I increased the heating time and the foil transferred evenly.I then used a complete sheet of foil and it worked beautifully! The waste also created a very nice background piece.The is one of the most beautiful background stamps I have ever purchased, plus, it also embosses your card stock without the foil. just use your press plates without heat and your cutting machine, working out the shims needed to get the correct impression on you card stock.The price was a little hard on my crafting budget, but well work the cost!

This makes a stunning design when using the holographic hot foils. In the photo I used both the Gemini aurora and two of the holographic foils from the Spellbinders 4 pack of hot foils. I used the Gemini hot foil press and the full size Gemini Die Cut machine with the extended plate. (Sold Seperately from the foil press.)I have done the ones in the photo and many more and every single one has looked amazing! I’m really impressed with how beautiful they turned out. Foiling with a laminator never looked this good so consistently.

Worked great. Beautiful pattern for cards.
