Happy Saturday, crafty friends! I hope you are having a lovely holiday weekend. I came down hard with some type of flu/respiratory illness that took me out most of yesterday. I'm feeling a bit better today, but still quite tired and a bit brain fogged. Thankfully it looks like I'm going to get over it pretty quickly!
Do you love all those cute toner foil cards that companies like Taylored Expressions come out with as much as me? I never thought I would be able to use them because I chose a hot foil system rather than a laminator, and I don't have the room for both. This is where the Solid Hot Foil Plate from Pinkfresh Studio comes to the rescue! As long as the foil cards fit within the confines of the plate, then you can toner foil with your hot foil system - just be sure you are using the correct foil made for toner, and not hot foil.
I've got a quick video up on my Instagram feed today, showing how easy it is to do. I hope you'll click over and check it out!

I really love this Ever In Blooms product set from Taylored Expressions - it's one that can be used in any season just by changing the colors.
