Cards from a Napkin and Stamps

Hello!  Today I am sharing 3 cards that I made from a napkin and added sentiments using stamps from Gina K Designs.  I used Stick It Paper ( double side adhesive) to attach the trimmed sections of the napkin to card bases of GKD Red Velvet Cardstock.  First design was a square card using a GKD die cut heart stamped with sentiment from GKD Birds & Blossoms.

For this horizontal design, I used a gold embossed sentiment from GKD Heart Stamp set.

I attached this portion of the napkin on white paper before attaching to the red card base.  Die cut the flag that was stamped with a script sentiment from GKD A Year of Flowers.

Cards from Napkins

Welcome!  I have been wanting to use napkins as an element on a card for some time but I did not want to use glue or an iron to adhere the napkin to the card stock.  I have seen many videos using those techniques and decided there must be an easier way. I decided to use  Stick It paper with the napkin....a much quicker and easier way and no messy glue.   I simply peeled the top ply from a napkin and laid this carefully to a sticky side of the  Stick It paper that I trimmed to 4."x5.25" or whatever size fits best to the design on the napkin.  I  then trimmed the edges of the napkin beyond the panel of Stick It.  The best thing to use for this is a pair of sharp scissors.   A trimmer does not trim a smooth edge on the napkin.  I then attached this to a base card with glue, tape, etc. For the top card, I inked the edge of the panel with a Copics before adding to the base.
On the bottom card, I inked the edge of the panel with a Pilot Gold Metallic marker picking up the gold text on the printed napkin. I finished with die cut words from Cheery Lynn to create a Thank You card.  Textured Green card stock for the bases was from my stash.
This was a quick and easy process to make cards using paper napkins.  It would be easy to make a gift box of these cards which I probably will do.  I can do 4 cards from each napkin.

The top card uses a large napkin that I have saved for a few years and the bottom card is from a pack of cocktail napkins that I recently purchased.
