you'll need to be able to stick them down
down as well there's
there's a handy little get started kit or
or guide rather there
there are the transfer sheets and of course
course
course the
the super exciting tool i love this tool for
for so many reasons one
one it matches all of my other blade housings
housings
housings it's
it's a gorgeous blue color here you can see
see you just press the button just like you
you would with any of the other blades and
and you just pop in the fine point or
or the medium or the bold tip and they've
they've all got a line on them which is one
one
one two
two or three lines this is a little handy
handy tip i thought use
use the magnetic blade holder in your handy
handy dandy storage compartment
compartment in your machine to store them
them
them now
now we're going to work on my first project
project
project cardstock
smooth on one side and texture on the other
other i find i get the best transfer when
when i use the smooth side to
to transfer on to now we're selecting medium
medium cardstock it
it tells me exactly what i need in terms of
of tools i am going to use a scoring stylus
stylus in this case and
and the reason being that i just want to remind
remind everyone that this is not just for
for the maker this is also for the explore
explore machines as well so
so it's telling me what tools to load make
make sure you follow these
these instructions i can't stress that enough
enough
enough i
i did make a few mistakes along the way and
and it was purely because things were a little
little bit um different
different to what i was used to and i just
just simply forgot
forgot to follow the correct steps i put the
the stylus in now
now in my blade housing i'm popping in the
the
the transfer
transfer foil transfer tool and
and then i'm just going to load in the mat
mat you can see i haven't got any foil on
on there just yet because the
the first step of course for the card is we're
we're going to score so
so the scoring has been done and it's telling
telling me my next instructions first
first and foremost do not unload your mat
mat
mat okay
okay make sure that you've got the correct
correct
correct uh
uh tip in with your foil blade or housing
housing
housing and
and then you're going to stick down your foil
foil
foil with
with the handy dandy again uh
uh adhesive strips that come with your pack
pack which is fantastic there's
there's enough tape if you want to call it
it tape
it tape to
to stick down all of the sheets that you get
get in a pack which is just fantastic so you
you don't need to worry about using it sparingly
sparingly
sparingly you
you want to make sure that it's lovely and
and taut
and taut is
is stuck well down and it's not going to shift
shift and it's not going to tear during
during the application process so once again
again we've already scored now
now we're doing the foil piece and there
there we go it's all done you're going to
to eject that it's
it's telling us well we're not going to eject
eject it rather we're just going to let
let it come out to that next stage and we're
we're now going to remove that
that foil and we're going to put in our fine
fine point blade because now we're going to
to do the cutting of
of our card another great feature of this
this kit as well you
perforate you can do all of those weird and
and wonderful combinations that we love when
when we're doing our crafts all in one easily
easily designed process and again just follow
follow those steps and it will tell you exactly
exactly what you
you need to do next and i just love that because
because as a card maker oh this
this is just going to elevate my cards to
to the next level of my cardstock projects
projects
projects and
and then we're just going to quickly cut out
out the insert for
for this particular card style which is based
based on the um
um the joy insert card designs which
which are just super fun and super versatile
versatile and i love kind of making them my
my own so here we've got our beautiful beautifully
beautifully foiled glossy shiny permanent
permanent transfer of that gorgeous aqua

and we've scored it already so we're just
just going to fold on the score line and get
