Deco Foil, 5 Transfer Sheets, 6" x 12", Gold

I had bought this with the intention to print on my printer any image I wanted, throw some foil on top of it and run it through the lamination machine. Two key points that weren't provided to me when I decided to buy a ton of foil. You MUST have a laser printer to be able to process these types of images and transfers via foil in the lamination machine. I have an inkjet printer and didn't plan on buying a new one anytime soon. Secondly, this is a great product to use if you have some form of an adhesive to be sure to ensure transfer for foil. My main purpose of buying the foil was to place my name in fancy lettering that I was going to print out on the computer and place in my planner and 'claim my planner and name it'. Unfortunately, because I misunderstood the instructions, I wasn't able to do this. However, I did find an old scrapbook glue pen laying around. I wrote my name out in glue pen and let dry for a few moments. After that, I laid a small cut piece of foil over it and ran it through the hot laminator within a sheet of computer paper to ensure the foil didn't get caught in the laminator. It worked great but wasn't the professionalism I was looking to do with the printed image. So be warned, if you come across that you can make these foil images with a just a laminator and printer, it MUST be a laser printer. Inkjet printers will not work for this. I haven't used the foil too much because I haven't had the means to buy more material to get it to be used. Another way you can use this foil other than a laser printer and transfer via the laminator is through embossing glue or adhesive sheets cut in the Cricut that is two-sided and laid on the page and foil on top to transfer the foil on it. I wish I had known all this before buying the foil and then not being able to purchase the additional things needed to use it! I guess that was my mistake without reading more about it. I just wanted to add foil deco to everything! There are lots of ways to use it, just read the reviews, and watch Youtube videos on it and you'll be able to make some great items. Just don't purchase blindly as I did. ;) In each roll, you get 5 sheets of foil that are the dimensions provided. The sheets are one-time use for the most part unless you cut exactly to the size your image is. I wish I could come up with something to do with the transfer remains of the foil with the image cut out and just have the remainder of the foil on the sheet to transfer to the outer outline of the image. Pictured above is my name written in glue pen, slightly dried, then ran with the foil sheet on top through the lamination machine on hot. It worked well, and the foil came out great. I just wish I knew better about the laser printer feature instead of thinking I could use any printer! Still the foil is amazing and can be used with just about any way you can adhere anything on a piece of paper then pressed on the adhesive leaving you a glowing shiny foil image .

Love it to good

Work just fine

Wowee! GORGEOUS, easy to use foil! *** If you like this stuff DONT buy it in the 5 sheets, you're getting ripped off big time - buy it in the rolls (same company) for much better value! transfer foil as it is all the rage right now & it is no wonder why, the shinier the better right? this stuff is great if you're into arts and crafts. A few tips: this stuff sticks to itself like nothing I've ever seen. You'll be cutting a sheet of it & then realize it's 4 of them stuck together. It's so thin its ridiculous. Another tip is if you're peeling the foil off & notice some spots (that aren't covered) just hit it with your iron until it is. The foil may burn (it just looks more rainbow-like than normal but really cant tell) or may come out sort of textured-like (again, I think this is better than having big black spots). PS: 1st pic demonstrates the "SPA" is burnt foil" & 2nd pic u see how it doesn't really make a big diff (only in a few angles can you tell they're slightly different). 3rd & 4th photos demonstrate burnt foil & the textured foil (burnt happens when overheating & textured happens when foil isn't on well enough, it's moved, then re-heated). 5th pic is all different papers used. Last pic is an ex of when foiling goes perfect. Foiling tips: black laser toner is easiest (& the best), get the smoothest paper you possibly can, make sure you're heating foil to correct temp (too low foil wont stick- too high foil will burn & maybe become textured). Have fun foiling! Hope this helps!

Just to get this out of the way, the product itself works flawlessly! I get a mirror finish on my greeting cards on the first application and if I pass it through my laminator a second time with regular printer paper covering it, I get a beautiful textured finish on my cards. I've added photos of my very first foil transfers ever (hope they get approved)! So it must be pretty easy if a newbie like me can pull it off. For those who might want to know exactly what I used: My printer is an HP LaserJet Pro M201dw Wireless Monochrome Printer (CF456A#BGJ) . I changed my printer settings from Fast res to Pro Res for a smoother print. Speaking of smooth, the card stock I print on is also very smooth to get the best toner/foil coverage. I have been using Hammermill Color Copy Digital Cover Paper which I purchased here on Amazon, it's less than $12 for 250 sheets of super smooth 80lb card stock. I also purchased the AmazonBasics Thermal Laminator for around $20 and use the 5 mil setting as suggested by reviews who also foil using this particular laminator. This was my first time ordering this product and I was quite disappointed to find only 3 out of 5 sheets as described on the listing once it arrived, however I reported the issue and was immediately shipped a proper replacement with all 5 sheets inside. This still means that I will have to find a UPS store to return the first shipment though, otherwise I will be charged twice the amount for less than what I ordered. I looked at a couple previous reviews and see that this has happened to a couple others as well which slightly turns me off from wanting to purchase again from this seller in the future. I really don't want to gamble on whether or not I will get exactly what I ordered, especially when my purpose for purchasing online is because I don't have certain places near enough to me (like UPS). I am giving 4 stars because the actual product is indeed quite wonderful and easy to use, hope I get many uses out of this!

Makes beautiful foiled invitations.

exactly what I needed. The gold pops. Very thin, but durable.

I love this particular colour. So easy to use and goes a long way even though there's only 5 sheets in a tube
