Default Minc by Heidi Swapp

I'm so late finding out about the Minc. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to use this if you don't have a laser printer? I don't understand why they would make something that you would need a specific printer for, since most people have ink jet printers. HSN is having a Special Value at midnight with Anna Griffin showing her Minc.

Thank you!

I would love a minc or laminator myself...but can't see getting one when I don't have a laser printer, if there isn't another way to be able to use it. *sigh* Do Wish it would work with ink jet! LOL Finding room for another printer is next to impossible...let along finding the money for one. If I had more space, I might be able to talk myself into getting one sometime If I could afford it...but I don't have room for another printer, so...not sure how I could ever get a minc, even though I love the foiled look.

Any recommendations for a laser printer to use for foiling? I just want it for this, so no need for all sorts of bells and whistles. Thanks!

I don't have that machine but I know some people use laser ink pens and that machine, bypassing the need for a laser printer. Here's a video on that, but if you look in the right side bar on the YouTube page there'll be others. Also including a Tim Holtz video on how to get the foiling look with sticky embossing powder and foil sheets. I'm definitely going to try this one!

Yes, definitely one that'll handle good cardstock!
