Crafter's Companion Gemini Foilpress

I was able to get the Crafter's Companion Gemini Foilpress.  I am very happy with the ease of use and perfect results you get with your foil stamps. The Gemini Foilpress was made to be used with the Crafter's Companion Gemini Jr. There is also an extender plate for use with you largest Gemini die cut machine.

I have some foiling tips when using the Gemini Foilpress.

• You can use Anna Griffin hot foil stamps with the Gemini Foilpress.
• You can use Spellbinders Glimmer hot plates with the Gemini Foilpress.
• You can use Couture Creations hot foil stamps with the Gemini Foilpress. 
• You can use Ultimate Crafts hot foil stamps with the Gemini Foilpress.
• When using the Spellbinders Glimmer hot  foil plates and to die cut the image out.  I first foiled the image and then cut the image out using the normal Gemini plate combinations.
• If you have some over foiling you can use a Tombow Mono Sand Eraser to erase the foil.
• The Anna Griffin foil stamps and Spellbinders Glimmer plates are the same heat, plate layers and time settings on the Gemini Foilpress as you would use for the Gemini Foil Stamps.

This is the Spellbinder Glimmer Plate.  It has a Hot Foil plate and a cutting die to cut around the foil image.

  

This is another view of the 2 piece Glimmer plate and die cut to cut the foil image out.

I've been making pom poms for months for some Christmas projects.
Any guesses as to what I will be making with these?
