In a previous post I showed another card where I used this technique but didn't explain the fun process of "napkin transfer". It is rather simple to do. On the card in this post the napkin is the center design pp.
Steps:
1.) cut the size card stock that you will want to use
2.) peel away ALL layers of your napkin (some are 4 ply). A tip for this is to lightly tear the side of your napkin and you'll find the plys come apart enough for you to peel away.
4.) on a protected ironing board layer: card stock, plastic wrap, napkin, 12x12 waste card stock.
5.) with your craft iron apply heat to the the sandwiched pieces. VERY Slowly move the iron side to side and all around.
6.) the plastic wrap will act as the glue for the napkin to stick to your card stock.
7.) once cooled carefully trim away the napkin to match your card stock size.
Tip: make sure your card stock is pre-cut - I found out the hard way, when cutting both the napkin and cs at the same time the napkin will pull away from the edges of the cs.
