I was so frightened to use the quill that I have already bought but thanks to you I am going to have a go today with it.
Thank you Bev😁

I'm so glad you're feeling more confident about it!

I prefer the Quil pen to be honest. I just made my son's wedding invitations, using the quill pen.

I Love that paper pad you used, where did you get it please?

[@ItsyBitsyBuild]

If you're in Australia, I bought it from spotlight: www.spotlightstores.com/art-craft/paper-craft/paper-cardboard/crafters-choice-nebula-paper-pad/80561336
Here's an alternative if you're in the US amzn.to/43gBcrs

Are you able to use Cricut tool on acrylic? Is the heat better?

[@ItsyBitsyBuild]

I've never tried to be honest, it's not a very textured surface so not sure it would adhere.

[@cassandraangle1408]

Genuine question, not to be snarky at all I'm just a skeptic I think
If the video is sponsored, I assume it's sponsored in favor of the foil quill. Do you only accept sponsors for a product you would genuinely use yourself?

[@ItsyBitsyBuild]

This is not sponsored, I bought both of these items with my own money. That's why I label it an honest review.

[@karydelgado8319]

We need I video how to just the foil without the tolls, please!

[@ItsyBitsyBuild]

The video explains how to use the foil function. Is there anything else you'd like to see?

[@magdasnyders5320]

Can You use foil quil on Cricut expression 1

[@ItsyBitsyBuild]

No unfortunately they use different sized tool holders.

[@magdasnyders5320]

@@ItsyBitsyBuild Thank You so much. I bought the machine second hand and it had the tools with it. Do You know what I could use to be able to do the foil.

[@ItsyBitsyBuild]

@@magdasnyders5320 I haven't personally used the machine myself but I do know there are lots of expressions Facebook groups so it might be worth joining one to ask a bit more. I wonder if you can cut foil vinyl to achieve a similar look.

[@magdasnyders5320]

@@ItsyBitsyBuild I will have a look at the different techniques on You Tube. Found a few that You can do without using any of the machines. Looks easy and fun. 😁
