Hot foiling machines

Heat your machine to the correct temperature according to the instructions and material you’re using.
Pop the Foil Stamp Die onto the heated platform with the cut side facing up and allow it to warm through.
Trim your chosen foil to size and, when the green light shows, place the foil coloured side down on top of the die.
Place your chosen material face down on top of the foil and place the top plate on top.
Using the Silicone Finger Grips, remove the Foiling Platform with the top plate from the base and roll it through the Gemini or Gemini Junior Die-Cutting Machine
Once the platform has been rolled through, carefully remove the material and peel back the foil to reveal your beautiful design
