The Foil Quill from We R Memory Keepers is a new heating tool that you can use with your electronic cutting machine apply heat reactive foil to different materials. I made my own gift tag and I’m sharing my brand new hand lettered FREE Happy Birthday SVG File that you can use with your Cricut or Silhouette machines!

I was a Creativation (a DIY & Craft conference) earlier this year when the Foil Quill was announced and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on one this spring. Personalizing gifts and other items with foil is one of my FAVORITE craft projects. I normally use Foil Iron On Vinyl to make projects like invitations and personalized napkins, but the Foil Quill creates so many more opportunities to use foil in my Cricut projects!

For my first project, I made a Birthday Gift Tag using a hand lettered Happy Birthday SVG Foil Quill design that I’m sharing with you! This Foil Quill image is designed to use the “draw” feature with your Cricut or Silhouette machines, and can be used with a regular pen instead of just the Foil Quill.

How to Make a Foil Quill Gift Tag with a Happy Birthday SVG Free

Note: For a fantastic and thorough tutorial on how to use the Foil Quill, visit Hey Let’s Make Stuff and read Cori’s How to Use the Foil Quill post. It’s how I learned to use my Foil Quill!

First, download the Happy Birthday SVG for Free (at the end of the post) and upload it to Cricut Design Space or Silhouette Studio. I used Cricut Design Space, so my brief tutorial will be demonstrated in Design Space.

If you’re new to using SVG files with your Cricut machine, make sure you read my full post on How to Upload an SVG to Cricut Design Space.

Create the gift tag shape you would like. I made a circle, and sliced a smaller circle out to create a hole through which to put ribbon. Place your uploaded Foil Quill design on the tag in your desired location, and set the design to “Draw.” I also added “FROM” with a font available in Design Space.

ATTACH all of the images that you would like to draw to the circle tag, as shown on the right hand side of this screenshot:

At this point, if you are not using the Foil Quill, just place a Cricut pen in clamp A and press the “go” button.

Plug in your Foil Quill pen in your machine (you can choose between 3 different points), and plug it in to a power source. Preheat for 5 minutes, USING THE HEAT GUARD to protect your machine while it’s heating.

Place your paper on the cutting mat, then cover the whole area with a piece of heat reactive foil. Make sure the foil is flat and tightly tape the edges of the foil down with the placement tape that came with the Foil Quill.

Click “Make It” to start your project. You’ll notice that the mat icon will say “Draw” and then “Cut” underneath. The machine will first draw your image with the Foil Quill, then cut the circle tag shape from the card stock.

After the Foil Quill is preheated, remove the guard and insert your mat into the machine. Press start and watch the Foil Quill do it’s magic! When the drawing part is done PAUSE THE MACHINE. Remove the tape and foil and then proceed with the cut part of the process. This ensures that the design will cut properly.
