    Awwww cute! Are those foiled trees and stars on the backing paper?

    I just asked as I run machines like this Heidelberg cylinder for die cutting -

    and this Saroglia hot foil press for foiling -

    So I’m always curious what other machines people run, I’ve never seen such a cute little machine like that Gemini though. Do you just hand crank it and it draws the paper through whilst rotating a die in the top section?

      Oh wow, the machines are quite a bit larger!

      Yes, you just put your embossing folder with the paper and die in and just hand crank a bit. It’s quite fast and small but there are all kinds of crafting die cutters, also electrical ones

      The background paper with the stars and trees are foiled, but that’s just a set of papers that I bought at my local crafting store
