5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous heavy foil
I've been using this for a couple of years now and have always had great results both as print and cut and for cutting out shapes. The adhesive is strong and the color is rich. Just remember to set the printer for photo and to set the registration marks to 1 mm (default is .5 mm).You can print very detailed images. I printed and cut this copy of the Congressional medal for members of the Civil Air Patrol during WW2. I set the printer to black and white photo, but now I am wondering how printing in color would work on this foil. Stazon ink works well for stamping on it. It's a lovely touch to a card or decoration, and a good value for the price.
5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT product!
This foil sticker paper is great. And the price is great. This one looks like (or is) real shiny gold foil. It’s a nice number of pages in the pack for the price, it will last me forever.I like that it’s self-adhesive sticker paper. I tried using glue to attach and it just got everywhere, it was an ugly mess.There are a bunch of competing products. Many of them don’t work with inkjet printers. Or else they’re more like yellow paper with a sparkly texture. I tried one of those other brands first and returned it, before I finally found this one.Printing black text on this foil with an inkjet printer looks plenty crisp and black enough for me.I let the paper sit and dry for a while after it was printed, just in case, like some other reviewers suggested, but really I found it was ready for use right away and didn’t smear with my finger, not even right out of the printer.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great product - but beware for Print & Cut jobs...
Overall, this product is great - finished product looks super fancy and high quality. I used it to make custom chinese red envelope favors for a 100 day birthday celebration. That said, you do need to do some homework prior to using this product for print and cuts. I've wasted a full package and tore my hair out before I finally figured out how to use this with my Silhouette Cameo - for that, I'm taking off a star. The problem is that the foil causes issues with the machine reading the registration marks, and your cuts end up being misaligned. I tried changing the thickness of the registration marks per another reviewer, and that did not make a difference. What was successful, was cutting out 1.5 inch squares of white sticker paper (e.g. Avery brand; you can also change the length of the registration marks to make sure everything fits) and sticking that onto the corners of the foil where the registration marks would go prior to feeding it into the printer. Then proceed as usual - the silhouette machine will be able to read the registration marks properly and cut perfectly.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good paper
Use it for stickers
5.0 out of 5 stars Great paper!
The media could not be loaded. I rarely leave reviews but this sticker paper is GREAT! The quality of the metallic color and the ease of the sticker takes it above and beyond other brands. I used for labels on gold trophies and it matched perfectly. Just let the ink dry a few seconds before touching and its beautiful!
3.0 out of 5 stars Patience is needed
I read another review after I already purchased it that it messes with the optical eye on the silhouette. So I was a little worried. When I got it, it printed beautifully and ran it through the silhouette with no problem. I needed several tags and with it being self adhesive I was excited this project was going to be easy and fast. I got to the last 2 pages and then I ran into the optical eye problem. It wasn't cutting properly. It ruined my last few sheets, I had to buy a second pack to which I ruined another 2 sheets before it began to cooperate. It was frustrating that it was so hit or miss. The end project came out beautiful, but cost 2x more than expected. It works well if you are doing just the cut, if you need it to cut after a print, I would not recommend. I have a Wausau gold paper that works but not as shiny as this gold foil but will print and cut with no problem but it is a heavier weight of paper where as this product is very thin and self adhesive.
5.0 out of 5 stars Gold Stickers!
I purchased a variety of Silhouette Printable sticker papers here on Bolo. You can't beat Bolo's price for this product. The adhesive paper is thick and made well. I've used this to make stickers for scrapbooking, stationary, cards, and also made planner stickers. The quality of the paper is great. I've been using them with my Cameo cutter and other tools, and it's worked well every time. My only advice for those with die cutting machines, is that you don't follow the suggested blade setting. I use it on a low setting like 1 on my Cameo, and it cuts fine. Anything higher tends to cut right through the paper which isn't great if you're trying to create sticker sheets. I think the suggested setting is fine if you're planning to make individual stickers.
5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous but finicky...
This product was bought to make "golden tickets" for a school production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. We needed bright shiny gold..and this product delivered. The color is bright and beautiful and very reflective...it is also only one sided gold and self adhesive with a peel off backing which is a plus depending on your needs. In our case we took identical pieces and peeled the back off and put them back to back to achieve double sided golden tickets. The sheets are the size of a standard 8.5" X 11" piece of paper and fed into our printer with no issues. Be sure you know this is inkjet ink only...laser toner will rub right off!!! I can see using this for many projects and decorative touches..I gave the scrap pieces to a scrabooker and they really thought it was cool to work with in their books. Anybody who needs a beautiful INKJET or liquid ink (like permanent markers) printable reflective gold paper, or planning to use without ink will be very happy this product
Perfect for the Sizzix Bigshot - Stunning Results!
If you happen to own a Sizzix Bigshot, you will be happy to know, that this works great!But, please READ THIS REVIEW CAREFULLY, because there is a bit of a secret to getting this foil to work in your Bigshot machine.It is marvelous for embossing and cutting, but you first need to know the secret, which I will share with you:IMPORTANT: BEFORE YOU RUN IT THROUGH THE MACHINE WITH YOUR DIE (THINLITS WORK GREAT) YOU MUST REMOVE THE BACKING OF THE FOIL AND STICK IT ONTO ANY KIND OF THINNER CARDSTOCK. IF YOU LEAVE THE BACKING ON THE FOIL, THE DIE WILL NOT CUT THROUGH ALL THE WAY. BUT, IF YOU REMOVE THE BACKING AND STICK CARDSTOCK ONTO THE BACK, IT WILL CUT AND IT WILL CUT BEAUTIFULLY.As mentioned above, this foil embosses beautifully and the results are stunning.
Buen producto
Buena marca, buen producto. Excelente servicio
Spettacolare!
Questi fogli sono spettacolari. Li ho acquistati per fare delle etichette, si stampa benissimo sopra e non si sbava l'inchiostro. Sono a finitura opaca metallizzata. L'adesivo è forte, li ho utilizzati anche su dei nastrini e non sono caduti, anzi. Ottimi!
Perfecto para toques finales en regalos o decoración
Vienen una gran cantidad de láminas en el paquete, pero además las puedes usar en cualquier impresora. Son muy útiles para realizar etiquetas, o bien para recortar y usarlas como adorno dorado. Tienen autoadhesivo detrás, con lo que no hay que preocuparse de cómo pegarlas. Estoy muy satisfecho con la compra.
