    I made some Christmas cards with Rachel Etrogs digital stamps, elements and papers. I printed the stamps with my laser printer and used my laminator to foil it with minc foil. Love the results!

    These are so pretty!! I have a foil pen that works with my Scan N Cut, but was just reading about this technique of using minc foil and a laminator. It looks like an easier process. I love your cards AND the way you photographed them!

    Thanks! You won’t regret learning how to use the foil pen! Love the little touch the foil gives to the cards.

    Thank you, the laminator works perfect, you just have to make sure the print is really black!

    WOWZERS! These are so beautiful. I've never heard of this technique with a laminator. I do have a scotch thermal laminator but not a laser printer. I just might "have" to get a laser printer to replace my dying ink jet printer. :giggle

    I bought a b/w laser printer to use for work, but it was equally for being able to print some scrapbooking stuff, a well kept secret :giggle

    Love this. I have the hand held and the pens that I can use in my machine.....I love using them for doing fonts. LOL. I hate to say, I may have the glimmer as well. LOL. I tell you, I have consumerism problems. I can probably keep the economy afloat single handed. LOL.
