I have ordered the Glimmer Machine, but I need to know what die cutting machines are compatable with it? I have a BigShot and a BigKick, will either work? Or do I need to purchase a larger machine?
Yana Smakula

I just bought a glimmer foil machine, using it only once and now as I tried it again it will not heat up? The power turns on but the green light does not come on and it will not heat up. Any help I am so excited about the machine and so sad and trouble by this problem.

Does this work with the Gemini Die Cutting machine?
Yana Smakula
Ellen, it does not. Glimmer is compatible with:
Glimmer is NOT compatible with Cuttlebug or any other machines that can’t cut Steel Rule Dies AND have at least a 6” wide platform.
Diane K Hathaway
Is the Glimmer Hot Foil compatible with the Big Shot Pro?
Yana Smakula
Diane, yes, Glimmer is compatible with the Big Shot Pro machine.
Sue
I have lots of Spellbinders dues, how do I know which ones are compatible?
Thank you
Yana Smakula
Sue, you need to use our new Glimmer plates for ideal foiled results. As for the dies, you can foil with all of them as well, but they will give you a thin foiled line (where the cut line is supposed to be). I hope this helps!

I have one of the new Stampin’ Up! Cut and Emboss machines – which looks remarkably similar to the Platinum Die Cutting and Embossing machine. Is the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System?
Thank you so much for any information that you can give me on this!
Yana Smakula
If you are asking if these two are compatible – yes, the new Stampin’ Up! Cut and Emboss and Spellbinders Glimmer are compatible.
I hope this helps!
susanlapanne
Thanks so much, Yana – that’s exactly what I was asking! I should have proofread the post before hitting send! I was hoping that it was compatible – so I’ll be spending some money tonight, I guess!
Thank you so much for your incredibly quick response!
