Product description:

• This is a beautiful star swirl hot foil plate, perfectly sized to add hot foiled stars to your card projects. These are hot foil stars that will emboss hot foil onto your desired card-stock or paper
• High-quality hot foil embossing set proudly manufactured in the USA
• Included are beautifully illustrated stars in different sizes, arranged in a swirly pattern - perfect for a starry night sky (this set coordinates with our “Midsummer Nights Dream” Collection)
• Please note while most letters will foil, some letters may also cut out for additional detail. This will depend on your die cutting machine, your card stock and your die cutting machine’s pressure. Some die cutting machines may only be able to foil.
• Swirl is perfectly sized for A2 card panels, but may be repeatedly foiled for larger backgrounds

Directions for hot foil plate use:

1. Gently remove the hot foil plate from backing sheet
2. You will notice that hot foil plates are slightly thicker and heavier than traditional dies
3. Hot foil plates emboss images onto your card stock versus cutting into your card-stock
4. A hot foil heating system is required, such as the Spellbinders glimmer plate foiling system or the Crafters Companion Hot foil plate system for the Gemini/ Gemini Junior (please follow manufacturer's instructions on how to use your foiling machine system)
5. Hot foil your image on desired paper or card-stock (textured, specialty or contoured card stock may not provide the most ideal results)
6. Use “hot foil” not “transfer foil” for best results
7. Don’t overheat your hot foil
8. If your hot foil plates or dies also have cut blades, please ensure to use them correctly (usually facing up, but please check your machine’s manual to avoid cutting into your hot foil machine)
9. The shiny side of your foil should face away from the card stock to ensure the foil transfers correctly
