Here are some samples of what customers are saying about the Minc Starter Kit:
“I'm really loving the MINC; I started foiling with the Royal Sovereign 1315, but didn't get consistent results. I'm not sure what the difference is, because both machines are similar in heat levels and control. I'm thinking the extra rollers in the MINC verses the two in the Royal Sovereign may be the primary reason. The MINC is heavier and it definitely looks and feels like a higher quality product. I'm very happy I purchased it. BTW, I love Heidi's foils too. I love Scrapbook.com and can always depend on quick shipping and excellent customer service. Thank You!” – lcalderone
Christmas all over again!
“I received my MINC today and loved how easy it is to operate. I did read the instruction manual but didn't really have to. Easy as 1-2-3. This machine will be getting a lot of usage. I also tested a print from the laser printer and it works like a charm. I completely agree with Heidi, ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES.” – Clovely

Loved this machine at first. Used it now and again to run a few things through. Then Christmas happened. I decided to foil an element of my cards which means LOTS of foiling. I followed the direction and let the machine rest between each folder. About 15min in, one of the folders started melting INSIDE the machine! ARGH. OK. figured it out. Cleaned everything out. Called it a day. Finished the project next day, no drama. A few months later, same thing happened. Then last weekend it melted a folder so badly inside that I can't get it out! Machine is ruined. I've had it about a year, but have used it less than 10 times. $20 laminator from Amazon does better work than this!
WOW!! I don't even know where to start? I just got my MINC Starter Kit for Christmas this year and oh my! I am looking for more things I can foil. This machine is awesome!! I am a candle maker and I really wish I would have gotten this machine when it first came out. It adds such an elegant touch to my candles. I wasn't sure if it would work for dressing up a candle? However, when I applied the foiled print to my candle it turned out beautiful and it wasn't very difficult to do. I would highly recommend Heidi Swapp's MINC Starter Kit to EVERYONE that crafts. Even folks that don't. I would have given this product 10 stars if it were an option!
Used in this project: Island Hibiscus Candle Using my New Minc with Rose Gold Foil
Love it!!!!!!!
I design from my silhouette printon my laser and its beautiful. Now all my friends, card makers and scrapbookers want one.
I had the mini Minc and wanted the larger one to laminate. I was not disappointed. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. I love to print and foil all my inside sentiments so I'm very pleased with this machine and recommend it to anyone who wants to foil.
I love this foil applicator. It is so easy to use and the results are fantastic. I use it with toner sheets. I foil the toner sheets and then cut the shape with my Sizzix Big Shot Plus. These work so well together.
I would highly recommend this.
I have not been a leader to use often,yet but love the ease of use. Very simple and safe. Plus attractive machine that takes up little space in my crowded craft area.
I love the new Heidi Swapp Minc Machine. It is easy to use and makes products look extra special.

What ever you foil must be on a piece of paper that has been run through a laserjet printer?? So if you cut something out of crd stock, this means you cannot foil it. Is that right??

I went to staples and took a piece of black card stock and had them print them on white card stock for 11 cents each

What size is the transfer folder, and how thick of a substrate can you feed through the machine? Thanks in advance.

Hello
In order to use the minc machine you need two items besides the machine, printed cardstock using a laser printer and of course the foil. The heat melts the foil and the ink of the laser printer acts as a glue which makes the foil adhere on the printed design. If you pay attention to the video, before she puts everything through the minc machine, the hearts are black (printed using a laser printer) and the foil has no markings on it. Once she removes the foil that went through the machine over the printed design, the foil that touched the printed design is now glued onto the design giving it a foiled look. Hope this helps.

Can I use my Minc to laminate?
By:

Yes! You can use your MINC machine to laminate a document, a flyer, business presentation...etc. You also can make a cover for a mini album using cardstock and even add glitter, embossing powder and sequins inside the laminating sheets before sending it into the MINC to laminate. Here's a couple great videos Jennifer McGuire shows how you can embellish with laminating with your MINC machine. Hope this will help! :)))
