can this be used for foil embossing?

I use it for encaustic and it works great. But I have no idea how it could be used for foil embossing.

I have never tried embossing but I wouldn't think so. It dry's fairly quickly so I don't think there is enough time to apply the embossing powder.

I am not sure of your question but will give you the only answers that I have. The embossing plates are easy to slip in and slip out of the embosser device - they lock into place using two square holes that hold and lock in two protruding metal parts. This is not a super sturdy device and it requires a lot of strength (to squeeze the embosser) to ensure that the embossed impression is adequate. I am not able to picture your needs but I doubt you could mount your own dies as the mounting structure is precise - in other words the holes line up with the pieces of metal that stick out. Sorry I cannot be more helpful.

I've never tried it, but I don't see why you couldn't. Also - they come with paper cup liners inside each foil cut, so you could replace those with the colored paper cups and remove the foil ones after baking.

I haven't tried using it with foil but I don't think that this basecoat is sticky enough for that purpose.

After using mine and being familiar with wax paper and foil, I see no reason why not. As a matter of fact, that's a great idea !!!

Yes, they do work but you can only use the base and one B plate just like the Big shot. They are thicker than the regular embossing folders and a hard plastic. should lightly mist the paper with water before embossing.

In general no, but if you fold up aluminum foil about 4 thicknesses it will emboss it and it will stay. I hope that helps.

Hi. I had to go try and see if I could use an embossing folder with the magnetic platform, I hadn't tried it before. No. I wasn't able to use it. The magnetic platform is just enough thicker (as the basic multi platform is without any of the sheets down). When I added ONE clear cutting plate it makes it thicker than the normal platform, but not thick enough to just use with one ...and adding the embossing folder & second cutting plate makes it too thick to run through. I hope this answers your question. (It will work with the cutting embossing dies though, pretty sure.) :)

i can tell you that it should not hurt. i would say you can use aluminum foil with the same results as this mylar product. good luck.

I suggest checking with the seller if that embosser have a removable stamp that can be switched with this one. If it is removable, it may not fill this design though. . .

I am sorry but, I can not answer your question. All I know is that it works in my old Rotex embosser.

I don't believe so. Although I've never tried to use foil in it. But for the clear wrap it works great. I've been using it for years. Try www.stretchtite.com.

Everyone said do not use it for Aluminum foil, but ya know what? I couldn't see a reason why not. I purchased two and one is for the Stretch Tite wrap and the other I use for Reynold Aluminum foil and it works great! I have been using it for months and had no, absolutely no issues. it cuts clean every time, and stops over pull, if you know what I mean....no waste. I suggest you go ahead and use it for foil, like I said I am very pleased with the performance.

Faith- I use my other embossing folders in the Sizzix Big Shot all the time. You can also use other cutting dies. Sandra

I just tried to use it with wax paper. It does NOT work. The wax paper is too slippery, so it isn't taut enough for the cutting blade to slice through. It rips and tears. Haven't tried it with aluminum foil.

I do not use it for that, but I am sure that ir would work. Put the dot of glue where you want the rhinestone, then place the bling on the glue. Reverse twizzers help. I am going to use it to place a large die cut on my Christmas cards.
