 Hey friends, really quickly I was going to foil my September kit, but I'm going to put out the video first of me doing the kit. So I was like, you know, let me show everybody what I'm doing. So I'm using this mink pen here. Okay, so this is the pen that's by Mink really, which is mink and it is the black. It is basically a toner ink marker. You need to shake it up, but I was trying to test it out because it seemed to be a little dry. Let me zoom in just a little bit. It seemed to be a little dry. So I got to pressing, so you have to kind of keep like pressing on it to get it to work. So you can see kind of my lines are going to be a little inconsistent. But once you get it going, it's good, but I have used it a lot here lately. So what I like to do is kind of find something to kind of color in that I want to stand out in the design that I've chosen. And see here, I just want to get the brushstrokes of the flower. So not sure how they're going to turn out because the ink is again acting a little inconsistent. But as you can see, it comes up, it comes out there. There you go. It's like you got to almost press on it. So but I will give you another option. I do my own nails, have done nails before, and you can also use the nail foil, but the adhesive that comes with that, because I was going to buy the adhesive for the ink machine. And I realized that it was like the same consistency as the nail foil. So what I have some here, let's see, because this is the everything table. So it's the nail table. I was looking to see if it was here, but it is clear. It's white and it goes clear. Let's see. I try to keep it close. Here it is. So this is what it looks like. So this is nail polish. We're going to actually try this. So let's put this pen up. And then I keep a fine brush, little brush here. You can get this from an art store. This is actually a nail brush. So it's the same adhesive. So I'm just going to take a little bit. It looks like Elmer's glue. So this is another option and I'm going to add in some brush strokes. Let's remember we put the nail adhesive on green, okay? And for nails, this needs to dry, needs to be dry. So we're just going to test it out on some green to see how it does on green. So let's just add in a little foil. So by the time you see this video, this kit will be in my planner. What I'll do, and I'm going to come down here and just add a little bit to the paint to see. Oh, you know what else I'll do? I want to put a little bit here on my, normally that long, I'll leave a picture at the end of how it looks in my planners. So yeah, so this is like, so it may be cheaper to buy this nail foil glue, whatever I can't nail foil adhesive. I think that's what it's called. So we're just making some lines here. Just some little brush strokes. So like if you receive, I love foiled stickers. So if you receive some, and you can even take this and do dots, so let's get our dots together. Let's get our dots together. So let's going to put our dots kind of on the pink, so that we know that is the nail foil. So when you get stickers a lot of times, and it has the little dots, it's pretty much the pen that they've used. Again, so for when I use this on my nails, the adhesive needs to be like transparent by then and dry. So okay, that's good enough. Well, let's do, I don't know if I did brush strokes over here. Okay, let's leave that alone because I'm about to mess something up and I need to film a video. So here I have, let me move that out of the way. This is my laminate machine. I got it off of Amazon. It comes with your slicer. It also comes with a corner thing. I'm going to list it below. Feel free to purchase it, but I found with this laminator, I need three pieces of paper. Six basically. One top, three on the bottom. So I have my paper right here. Oh, and let's get that foil out. So this is the foil that I'm using. I'm using the mink foil in gold. And this is by Heidi Swab. So let's open it up. So this is my first time using this foil. I was using this knife in front of me. A foil foil, which is a great idea because it only comes in small packs so that way you don't have to worry about if you mess up. You've purchased a lot of foil or unnecessary foil. So right now I don't have a toner, y'all, I'm trying to get this photo. I don't have a laser printer at the moment. So this is my option. So once I get one, you know, I still got to figure that out. So it comes like with a protective layer. You want to just kind of take something medium sharp to get that off or sharp. And we're going to peel that off. So for this paper, I'm just going to kind of eyeball it and I'm sure I'll have some left. I'm going to use some scissors, so I've kind of already marked where it needs to go. These are like probably my doughs, but just cut how much you think you're going to need. You will probably have a lot left over. I'm going to place it on here like this and I'm just going to press on it because this pressure is what's going to get it on there. So I'm going to flip it over because I'm going to take off the excess because I can use that somewhere else. And I'm almost willing to bet that I could use this foil on my nails as well. Because when I first tried it, I tried nail foil because I forgot I had some of this foil here. So I tried nail foil and it got like everywhere, but I'm almost positive I could use this on my nails. So what you want to do is always just kind of rewrap that around so that you can use it at a later date. And let's put it back. Okay, so now that we have our foil down, let's sandwich it. I like to sandwich it between three. When I first did it, I just did one piece of copy paper. Now if you have cardstock, it probably would work best with cardstock as well, but when I first did it, it was like one on one side, one on the other and it just got all over the paper and I could not believe I thought I did something wrong, but I did. I just didn't have enough paper. So you want to make sure that that foil part is covered and it's not hanging out because you don't want it to kind of get through to your machine. So I'm just making sure all that is covered. So you need to slide that. Everything's in there. Now we're going to press it through and I'll probably speed this through. Okay, so now we're taking it out. Let's see because I really don't even know what we're going to get y'all to be telling you the truth. Look how pretty that is. And some of the brushstrokes I made, they did come through. So if you don't want to purchase the, let me zoom in. If you don't want to purchase, you can get like nail adhesive, nail foil adhesive. That's the nail foil adhesive there on the strokes. See here when I use the pen for the strokes, that didn't even pick up. So but the nail foil adhesive did work. So I won't be buying that pen anymore because that pen is dry. Like it's not even, it's hardly working. So that came out really pretty. So I hope you guys enjoyed this quick tutorial. Also if I didn't mention your laminator needs to be hot. You need to get it hot first, let it warm up. If you have a hot and cool setting, just make sure it's all hot. Mine doesn't have a high or medium or just like temperature wise, it just says hot and cold. So let me see if I can show you. Yes, there it is. Hot and cold. So that's all mine says. And again, I will leave a link below to this laminator. And that's it. I hope you guys enjoyed. If you have any questions in the comments section, I will do my best to answer them. Like I said, I'm just new to foiling my stickers and I just wanted to help somebody because I don't think there's no private, there's no secret information. So thank you all so much for watching and I will see you in my next video. If you're new to my channel and this is your first time watching any of my videos, please come back for more DIYs, how to and planner related items and I will see you in my next video. Bye.
