How do shiny animals come to life? Follow these steps and reveal the secret of the sparkle!

Step 1: Choose a Design

First, decide which animal you want to create. The kit includes various designs – from a brave lion to a magical unicorn or a mysterious sea horse.

💡 Tip: Choose your favorite or mix and match several for even more fun!

Step 2: Prepare Your Crafting Area

Before you begin, get ready by preparing:

  • A clean workspace or table where you can press the foil sheets safely.
  • All elements from the kit: design cards, shiny foil sheets, foam stickers, and googly eyes.
  • Parental supervision if younger children are crafting.

📌 Tip: You can also lay down extra paper or cardboard to protect your surface from possible glitter.

Step 3: Peel Off the Protective Film

Each design card has a protective film over the sticky areas. Carefully peel it off to reveal where the shiny foil will stick.

  • Hold the card with one hand, peel with the other.
  • Avoid touching the sticky surface to keep it clean.

💡 Pro tip: Peel slowly to avoid damaging the sticky area.

Step 4: Place the Foil Sheet

Choose a foil color you want to apply to the design. Place the foil shiny side up over the sticky area of the card.

  • Align the sheet to cover the full area you want to decorate.
  • Adjust edges slightly if needed before pressing.

💡 Tip: Use different foil colors for different parts of your animal – e.g., pink for a unicorn’s horn, blue for the sea horse’s body.

Step 5: Press and Smooth

Using your fingers or the included smoothing tool, press down firmly and evenly over the entire foil surface.

  • Gently smooth it out so the foil fully transfers onto the sticky card.
  • Don’t pull off the foil until you’re ready to lift it.

💡 Pro tip: Start pressing from the center outward to prevent bubbles or uneven coverage

Step 6: Lift the Foil and Reveal Your Artwork

Once you’re sure the foil has been pressed properly, slowly lift the sheet.

  • Watch your design shine with sparkling color!
  • If needed, fix any edges by pressing lightly again.

🎇 Result: Your animal is now complete! You can decorate different parts with various foil colors for an even more magical effect.

Step 7: Add Details and Eyes

Use the googly eyes to give your animal character.

  • Carefully stick them in place.
  • Add glitter or stickers to decorate further.

💡 Tip: These small details make each animal unique and full of personality!

Step 8: Storing and Caring for Your Creations

When you’re done:

  • Store the design cards in a dry place.
  • Put unused foil sheets back into the original packaging.
  • Display, gift, or save your shiny artworks for later enjoyment!

📌 Tip: Keep finished designs away from direct sunlight or moisture for long-lasting sparkle.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

1

Will creating foil animals make a mess?

No, Foil Fun is a clean activity. No glue, paint, or scissors are needed – the foil transfers directly onto the sticky areas. Kids can create without worrying about messes or stains.

2

How long does it take to complete one design?

The foil transfers instantly when applied correctly. For best results:

  • Press the foil evenly (using a finger or smoothing tool).
  • Check and fix any edges after lifting the foil.

Creating one animal usually takes 5–10 minutes, depending on the number of colors and details.

3

What if the foil doesn’t transfer evenly?

No worries! If some parts aren’t fully colored:

  • Gently press the foil again on the missing spots.
  • Rub lightly with your finger or tool to transfer the color.

For larger areas, use different foil sheets to improve coverage and shine.

4

Can I reuse the Foil Fun sheets on the same design?

Yes! You can reapply foil as long as the sticky surface still works. We recommend adding foil gradually for the best sparkling result.
