These were great reminders of fun projects. There is one that you didn't mention and it's a huge money saver. Run an empty pouch through your laminator. Then you have an acetate that allows you to emboss on it. The acetate for heat is very expensive.
@@dotmitchell8912I laminate a pouch with nothing in it and then cut my stencil designs on it, it works fine. I cut it with my Brother Scan and Cut machine. 😊
As a long time fan of yours, I have tried many of these great projects before but great to have them all together and to refresh the ideas. I have made so many of the pockets for my dies with this idea, they work perfectly and keep everything organised. Thanks as always Ann.
Happy New Year to you! Thanks for all these techniques. I will definitely be using them. If folks can't get the nonstick carrier sheet they could try using a folded piece of parchment paper as a good substitute. I've done this and it works quite well. Blessings to you. 🎇
Happy New Year! May 2023 bring you good health, happiness and continued crafty success! 🥰 Thank you so very much for all you do and share, you are a treasure! Cheers, 🥰💕xx
wow those pouches!! awesome... I borrowed a laminator last week, am having fun, except I did several with wrong sides out and now have some nice THICK acetate!! haha
Ha! This was so great, Ann! I pulled all the things out of storage to give each project a go! I'm the most excited about the faux glossy accent die cuts! Hooray! Thank you so much for sharing your super tips!
Just another informative video from the best channel on you tube, hands down. Your content is always right on and concise. Thank you for all do and Happy New Year to you and your family.
I’m going to try making a clear stencil by just putting in a pouch with nothing except a piece of cardstock at the top thanks to your tip. I’ll put it through silhouette with my own design and hopefully have an easily positional stencil. 🤞
Happy New Year Ann! 🎆 Thank you so much for compiling all of these amazing lamination videos. I know it's a lot of work. Did you ever think, years ago when you first started paper crafting, that you'd get as far as you have? I've only been paper crafting for about 3 years, and I never would have imagined that I could make my own boxes and gift bags to fit anything. ❤️ You helped me get here.
I have been using these techniques ever since you first posted them. I LOVE them! Great idea to have a compilation video for new subbies to be introduced to the wonderful world of Positively Papercraft! Thank you Ann and I hope 2023 will your best year so far! Janet ❤
Love these Ann. I tried most of them with all success when you showed them before. Now I have to do them again, including any I left out last time ! So I will be dusting down my machine and making a pile of them. Thanks for sharing and reminding me about them.
This is great thank you, your laminating videos are the reason I bought one (my husband doesn’t say thank you as it’s yet another thing to find a home for 🤣)
Thank you Ann for your video on laminating. Thank you for the hack on making stamp and/or die storage pouches (any size). The idea on the stencil was not only a great idea but my feeble mind was able to grasp your instructions. Guess what I will be doing next!! Hope 2023 brings you more happiness, love and self-peace. Hugs xxx
I just recently started omitting putting the paper in between because back to back doesn’t stick and I had to trim up anyhow. It worked . Thank-you for sharing all your discoveries! I love your stencil idea too and also your tip about inserting a piece of card stock so the laminator doesn’t jam. Laminators are fun! I love melting sh!t hahahaha
How nice to have all your great laminating ideas in one place. Thanks! I'm sure you'll come up with even more ways to use the pouches and laminator. I'll look forward to seeing them.
To make your own carrier sheets, put two sheets of card, with scrap paper between inside a laminator pouch, making sure they are straight, and as close to the lamination fold as possible. Then, before putting through the laminator, cut off both sides of the pouch about 3 to 4 inches below the pouch fold. Hope this makes sense🤫
Thank you for taking the time to show us these different techniques, although I’ve seen you do them before it’s nice that they are all together and it’s a reminder what we can do with a laminator. Happy New Year! x
Happy New Year, hun! Thanks for this great compilation. It's so good to have them together and you've inspired me to get my laminator out again. I'd totally forgotten about the glossy accents effect and laminating fabric. Thanks again, your extra effort is always appreciated ❤️
Hi Ann I have watched a few of your laminating videos and have found them very inspiring - have also shared them with friends and we have made many pouches etc. Thanks for all your techniques - laminator is really getting a work out !!
Hi Ann. I love your laminating video's. I'm not sure if you have done this but came up with the idea after watching your video's. I have many stamps sets with words that don't get used because I kept them with the original set they came with. I would not remember I had the words or sentiment's or would forget which set they went with. I decided I would put all the thank you stamps, birthday etc. on a sheet together. I have some 5 mil 5 x 7 pockets that worked great for this. I first stamped the laminating sheets on the inside and put them through the laminator. But it smeared enough that it was hard to read what the words were when the stamps were over top of them. I then stamped on a white piece of card stock and left room to put the stamp above the stamped image. Put that in the stamp pockets and ran it through the laminator. Because it is 5 mil thick it was very sturdy after laminated. The stamps stuck to this surface easily. You lose space on your sheet when you store the stamp above the word or sentiment, but it's so much easier to read. I then put it a clear storage pocket. I hope this makes sense. I really appreciate all the work you do to help others.
Ann, First of all, Happy New Year, I always love absolutely everything that you make. I have a laminator that I used once and everything got stuck which made me afraid of it. I really want to make some projects. Thank You for all the great tips
Hi Anne - Happy New Year! I've loved and used all your laminating ideas over the years. It's so handy to have so many in one place. I'll definitely be getting one of those non-stick carrier pouches!
Hello Ann: Just happened on your compilation video and wanted to thank you. Great video.I don't use my laminator near enough and you've given me many good reasons to get on with it. Have a great day!
Thank you for the compilation, Ann! I've seen some of them but missed others. When you laminate one side of the patterned paper, do you ever have problems with it curling? Thanks again! ❤️!!
Hi Ann I have been searching for a good site for crafting and came across you, you are fantastic I don’t watch any other video by anyone else now, I’m just going through your old videos, thank you for your videos
Ann thank you for a compilation of your laminating projects. I have always loved lamination. You are so incredibly creative. Your channel is one of my favorite channels hands down. I hope 2023 brings you much success in your endeavors.
I have recently come across your channel. What a find!!! Superbly presented, informative, brilliant tips and tricks, I love your compilations, very watchable over and over. I now have some catching up to do watching past videos!! By the way, your nails are lovely and your accent is one of my favourites.
I love all of these ideas! Do you think I could use parchment paper in place of the oven paper? Like fold a sheet in half? Thank you so much for the video! Hope you have a blessed New Year ❤😊
Ann, Happy New Year and thank you SO much for this fabulous video!! I have a laminator, after watching some of your previous videos, guess it's time to get it back out!!!
Thank you so much Ann, I really really enjoyed watching you demonstrate all these really really great idea’s with the laminator. Some I’ve seen before, so that’s reminded me. And some that are really really awesome too. I really really love ❤️ them and appreciate you too for showing us all. Can I wish you a Happy New Year too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Such great tips! I love my laminator and am always looking for new ways to use it. It’s great having so many tips in the same video. Definitely saving this one.
Thank you for all of the ideas. I have used the one you did before where you laminated a napkin in a matte laminating sheet, and it looked like patterned acetate. Beautiful!
Thank you for putting these ideas all together in one video which I've saved in laminating for quick retrieval but also in your folder plus Techniques so I'll find them and be inspired all over again when searching for inspiration. I wish you a health filled year ahead full of exciting adventures in crafting. Certain items are hard to source in Australia and hugely expensive to purchase from overseas due to exchange rates and postage costs so I'm wondering if I could double over a silicone oven mat to make the laminating protector thingy, wish me luck! Keep those wonderful tutorials coming, they're much appreciated!
Love all the great ideas you can do with a laminater. Been wanting to get one for a couple of years,but I wanted to be able to see what you can do with it Guess I'm going to finally get one.Going to check around to see if there are different types to do different things?? Thanks for sharing this. Really appreciate it. Happy New Year to you.
You are positively the most creative crafter/artist that I admire the most. Your ideas are just amazing and inspirational. Always look forward to your videos and this one is another great one. Thank you for sharing that mind of yours. Happy, Healthy New Year to you and yours.
Hi Ann….loving all these tips. I see you use the same Woodware paper trimmer as me. I’ve tried without success to get some new straight blades. Do you know where I can buy them from. Thankyou
Where do you get your plastic plates for you die machine. Mine look a mess and are warped. Your always look great. Thanks. Love the things and tips you share 👍
Happy New Year. Thank you so much for going through these with your laminater. Didnt know half of these tips. Thank you for taking the time to share your tips. Xx
Fantastic ways to use your laminator Ann 🥰 I love your ideas. I have made a lot of pockets for my die-sets and tried to laminate napkins ❤️ thanks for sharing your ideas and talent Hugs xx

Sounds great Carla , do you think it could be die cut to make stencils ? Or use punches
I love this ,I have made lots of the pockets for my dies , so easy to use and use them more because I can see them at a glance thank you Anne
Crafters companion heat resistant acetate is cheap

Thank you! I couldn’t find these and was checking comments to see if there is something else I could use.
Non stick oven sheets?
You have such brilliant ideas!! I got out my 12 year old never used laminator after watching earlier videos...amazing!! Thank you for all the ideas xx
The faux glossy accents technique is awesome. I can never get that stuff on and dried without messing it up.
I keep forgetting about how many fab things you can do with your laminator, thanks for sharing hun xxx
Great ideas, Ann. I bought a machine acouple of years ago and have never used it. Perhaps I'll give it a try after seeing your video. Ruth down under.
Happy New Year! May 2023 bring you good health, happiness and continued crafty success! 🥰 Thank you so very much for all you do and share, you are a treasure! Cheers, 🥰💕xx
These are all good. I like to put dried leaves in the laminator to make bookmarks or other uses.
Thank you for sharing your videos
fab reminder of the different techniques x
I don't have a laminator, but seeing you are such a great tutor, I will be talking to Mr Amazon! Thanks Anne and all the best for the new year. Xxx
Thanks for the recap. I had forgotten you could make a stencil with a sheet of card laminated on one side. Thanks, Ann!
wow those pouches!! awesome... I borrowed a laminator last week, am having fun, except I did several with wrong sides out and now have some nice THICK acetate!! haha
Ha! This was so great, Ann! I pulled all the things out of storage to give each project a go! I'm the most excited about the faux glossy accent die cuts! Hooray! Thank you so much for sharing your super tips!

Our local Men's Shed has a laser cutter. I fused pouches to themselves and had some stencils made at the Shed, to my designs. 😀🇦🇺
Fabulous compilation! I know I'll be watching this over and over! Thank you!!
