Lining up Alphabet Foil Stamps

 


In this video I'm showing how to use alphabet hot foil stamps (individual letters) to create words - and keep all of the letters lined up correctly. The alphabet set is from Crafters Companion - Gemini Foil Press foil stamp dies, but they can be used on any hot foiling platform (Gemini FoilPress, GoPress & Foil or Spellbinders Glimmer) and this technique can be used which ever hot foiling platform you have.

The capital letters in the set I'm using are 1" (2.4cm) high. In addition to your foiling platform and foil, you'll need the alphabet foil stamp set (or similar), a magnetic sheet, some acrylic stamping blogs (to use as straight edges) and some good quality masking tape (I used Frog Tape for Delicate Surfaces) or Washi Tape.
