Cricut 2008727 Foil Transfer Kit, Explore Maker Machines, 3 Tips - fine, Medium & Bold

Works great as expected, reliable and easy to use as is most Cricut tools. Little bit expensive however it is worth the money when you see the results you get from using it.

Adds a great dimension to card making and other crafts. The only limitations are your imagination and the size of the foil sheets. Yes, not the cheapest process (per sheet) but you won't be using this on absolutely everything. Great for personalising. Note though that even the widest tool still only makes quite a fine line, so this system is for adding text and squiggly bits: it won't do blocks of metallic design in the way that a hot foil press works. You can get fancy branded tape to hold the foil in place on the mat, but standard washi works just fine. It is all a bit faffy. Make sure that you keep the foil very carefully as it will scratch and leave gaps in your foiling. The sheets are like handling spider webs. Good addition to your crafting stash - providing of course that you already have a Cricut!

Arrived earlier than expected, was informed it was expected in November, but it came after three days of placing my order (1-10-20). Love this kit, it’s a game changer, so easy to use, got so many projects lined up..... just love it !!!!

I do a lot of foil effect as part of my business. So when a new gadget comes out I like to try it.I really liked the concept of this and was excited to try it. Overall it works but takes a lot of fiddling and resources to achieve the effect.ConsIt took 3 attempts to keep the foil down well enough not to be pulled up and spat out by the circuit. I underestimated it’s need for being so firmly stuck down. My first attempt was with some strong masking tap. This failed 20 seconds in.second attempt was with the sticky tabs included. I applied this to the sides but cut them smaller as I didn’t want the tape to block the grid. This also failed. Third attempt I had to rework the design so I could accommodate large pieces of tape to take down. So when you account all the faffing, fiddling and waste, it’s not the best tool for regular use. These attempts were after trying out other foils. I tried a few and most didn’t work, so you are limited to the expensive Cricket ones.ProsWhen done the finish is more professional looking than you would get via heat transfer. It gives the image / text an embossed look, because of course it uses pressure to attach the foil. So I’m going to keep this tool and might use it for pretty A3 poster work that has intricate designs.It may get used or may end up in a draw, for me. I think it’s worth the purchase if you are not planning to use it regular, more for hobby use. I plan to try this out on other materials (fabric and wood) so may update my review once I’ve done this.

Ok, I was dubious about this product. The reviews weren't great and I though 'why do I need another Cricut tool?' So I dithered for ages and this week I wanted to do some foiling on a project so I bought it.WOW. I can see why the reviews are negative, and it is a bit of faffing about but the results are so worth it. I have a Cricut Maker, so not sure how well this works on the Explorer or Joy.I am also a subscriber to Jennifer Maker (American) who has some brilliant tips on how to use this product, and thanks to her I got fantastic (not perfect) results the first time so I recommend you watching her video (I wish I got commission!) I will be buying more foil and using it on a lot more projects. As usual with Cricut, experimenting is key. I have uploaded a photo, but it doesn't do it justice. Still all things being expensive with Cricut, I would buy this on sale as I did.

I'm new to cricut, but invested in the foiling tool. The first one I did I stopped it part way through as I didn't quite have it trapped down flat enough, and also didn't quite line it up right. This time I lined it up better but still it as it did the image over part of the tape, (so I drew in where it missed).Apart from that it is straight forward to use, and I'm still getting used to using the cricut machine. The image isn't for anything in particular but just wanted to try it out.I used the thick nib and increased the pressure to, (although I'm not sure if it dragged the foil more than if it was left in normal).Over all for best results, the foil must lay as flat as possible.I am impressed, its fun to do.

Ideal for my cricut machine.Used within 1 hour of delivery.Quickly dispatched and delivered. Good value. Recommended seller
