Has anyone used nail foils for crafting. I’m mostly interested in using them with double sided tape To embellish my die cuts.

I haven’t simply because I never thought of it. I may have some in my nail art drawer. If so, it might be fun to try.

They absolutely work with double-sided tape or with glue that dries tacky (Tombow Mono Multi is the one I tried). Some of them also work with laser-printed images and run thru a laminator (like Minc foil or DecoFoil) but some of them, the heat transfers ALL the foil, not just where the printing is. I just got a container of DecoFoil Duo, which is supposed to work without heat and you run the piece thru a diecutting machine to get the foil to transfer - haven't tried that yet but I'm pretty sure it will work with that.
I also used nail foils for the alcohol ink backgrounds where you try to get the foil to stick to the tacky spots in the alcohol ink, and they worked with that.

Watch Natasha Foote on Youtube. She uses these for cardmaking and they are from Aliexpress.
