Isn't that fun? And easy?? Now that you know HOW to foil, let's take a look at projects made with our products. We have two options – the standalone Foiling Plates , or Foil & Cuts which come with a coordinating Frame Cut.

If you are brand new to foiling, we've made it easy for you to get started. We've partnered with Spellbinders to carry their Glimmer Hot Foil System , a special Glimmer Hot Foil System Starter Bundle with additional foil included, the Platinum 6 Die Cutting Machine , and various gorgeous foil packs . Please note, the Glimmer Systems and Platinum 6 are for domestic customers only, have shipping included in the price, and will ship directly from Spellbinders. The Foil Variety Packs will ship directly from Hero Arts, combined with other products you may order.

Now tell us what you think – do you love foiling? Should we add more Hot Foil Plates to our product line?

Happy Foiling!
