At one time John you could only purchase foiled cards that were so expensive, now I can foil at home with your delightful dies and produce a very good foiled card with designs the shops do not have. Please keep the dies coming John they are so unusual.

Cards which have foiled elements always look expensive; classy and make the recipient feel special due to the opulence. I’m sure due to the quality produced it makes people think they are not handmade cards, but it’s wonderful to know they are.

John thanks for all your inspiration and easy to follow techniques you always share. I love foiling because it makes my hand crafted cards look really good and friends do not believe I made them myself as I am still learning the skills. Celebrate in style as you finally launch your new range.

This is it John how exciting!

Why I love the hot foil look… hot foiling can either be a professional finishing touch or an interesting starting point for use with other mediums. it allows me to do things I could not do before with ease, it also gives me amazing results with less energy spent as nowadays energy is in short supply. The best part about using it though is the response of the recipient. Always my motivation!
