Multiple Ways With Napkins In Card Making. (1008)

[@ReneeCrane-x4w]

I know you are WAY younger and have had no exposure to OLD technology as I have, but those stickers you said looked like buttons with letters are actually the way early typewriter keys looked. They provide a vintage look to those who remember typewriters. And your card is lovely!

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

Yes, I know the typewriters you are referring to! I often go back and cringe at the things I say in videos and think I didn't convey things right, and it wasn't what I meant, or I've said the wrong word etc. you are entirely right, I think the typewriter keys were 100% the description I was actually looking for 😂. I still can't listen to my own voice 1000 videos + later!!

[@nikkilarose8708]

❤Love your ideas and used them in my journals thank you for being so awesome

[@vasanthalucky5388]

Charming work! Thanks for sharing.

[@conniesanginesi4676]

I’ve never seen napkin videos prior to yours. Thanks for showing the process, your cards are quite nice.

[@davidthomas3165]

These are beautiful, my friend can do card making, I must show her this tomorrow, I have too much sewing and crocheting to do. May be 1 day I will have a go. Thank you for sharing ❤ linda

[@judyschultheis]

This was great to watch; thank you for a great video! 🙂

[@gavincollins8053]

Just noticed that you could use the "YOU" die to make the word "JOY". Just cut part of the U off to make it into a J and then you have the O and Y. Great for a Christmas card, multi use of an item. Just up your alley Natasha. 😀

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

Ohhhhh that's super clever! I might have to borrow that idea! Thank you!

[@mandy.austin]

I literally just stick my napkins on with double-sided adhesive, and I don't throw out the white layer; it makes a great texture for card bases.

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

The white layer can be used for so many things - it's fantastic!

[@gailgonzalez4547]

Love them both but I adore the bird napkin card. I agree if your napkin wrinkles make them stand out. I highlight mine in gold pen.

[@tammyhenderson4565]

WHEW!!!! I thought you were going to cut up the bird and butterfly one. I kept thinking she should use it and then WHEW it was just the bird. I like how it turned out. The lilac one is beautiful too. I love the smell of lilacs.

[@maryswartzel2773]

I adore these cards. So maybe, sometime soon, you can give us a reminder or new ideas on how to use the unprinted backing to the napkins ? ♥️

[@Mari-cre8s]

Both cards are beautiful in their own way. Great reminder to watch for cool napkins and make them into cards! I use the glue stick technique, but before I think it’s totally dry I run the panel through an embossing folder that compliments the design. It adds another whole dimension to the final card! Congrats on your terrific website btw!! 🧑🏼‍🎨😀🌷

[@gerrieriihimaki6446]

The little “buttons” look like old typewriter keys.🙂 cute cards! Thanks for sharing them.🙂

[@susandavis3819]

This is beatiful!

[@lindadunstall1790]

Hi Natasha 🥰🦘 Two "looks" that I had not seen done with napkins. I have a box FULL of them. Bit of a collector, me! 😋Thank you 💐

[@rhodamabbott8101]

Gorgeous cards!

[@karenthomas2302]

Beautiful cards, tfs ❤😊

[@lindavinson1273]

Gorgeous cards! 🥰

[@dise331]

Those napkins are beautiful, and I think both cards are absolutely gorgeous - what a difference it makes using coloured cardstock 🌻🌻

[@dianerollings3474]

Well done. I love using the serviettes. I always use the glue stick. Find it so much easier. I love the lavender card. But I do love the bird one too. They are all good in different ways. Thank you Natasha ❤🎉

[@zeldaackerman4394]

Very pretty!!

[@wendywell4864]

I think the alphabet letters on the circles are replicating old typewriter keys. Putting the napkin on coloured cardstock is a great idea.

[@maryfitzgerald9408]

Yes thats exactly what I thought as soon as I saw them. Showing my age. 😂😂😂

[@yasminclarke6765]

So good! ❤

[@qtem1]

Natasha, both of your cards are simply beautiful ! I will have to find my napkin stash and start making some cards. I could possibly make Christmas cards with some Christmas napkins to send to my friends. Thank you for the great & easy ideas. 😊

[@vikkiprendergast2609]

Gorgeous cards Natasha xx

[@expressivepaper]

Great cards! Love your videos❤

[@harriettezmalloy7182]

Lovely cards. I really like the bird, how the design carries on to the focal point. And then the lavender is just so pretty. Both are wonderful. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@Taitcreates639]

That Wild wisteria card stock is something special, love the lavender card a lot. She’s a beauty.

[@ginaashby6782]

Jst came across ur video luv luv ur cards never thought to use napkins such a beautiful idea will keep watching from Australia ❤

[@candicebrill-ex6gj]

I've been collecting napkins, now I know what to do with them!!!

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

There are so many options! Enjoy xx Natasha

[@ConniBartosh]

Thanks for a reminder how fun napkins are!

[@kathywilson1051]

Once again a great video . I do have some napkins and I have used them for cards but I have never tried the liquid glue . Looks good so I will try that and I have never decoupaged my napkins either so that's something else to try . Thank you so much you really inspire me x

[@Java-Junky]

I like the continuation with the bird one, but I also love the vintage style purple one too. As for techniques…so far Ive only tried with the matte medium. I dont think we have glue sticks in the house at all 🤔 lol. Only big kids here now that are passed the point of using glue sticks regularly.

[@3catmom844]

Beautiful!

[@charlottebradnick8102]

Loved both cards.

[@karenbyron2813]

These are stunning xxx

[@kellirobinson2858]

Those are both gorgeous!

[@susanbates9746]

Love those cards

[@dianalama1591]

Love it!!!

[@nonnajoymadrigal6025]

Very beautiful! May I ask where you purchased the napkins, please?

[@doloresneilson5349]

Oh....you've inspired me again!! Endless possibilities with this design. Would love to find a sunflower napkin (Autumn here now) and layer over a gold foil panel with a "YOU" die cut in gold. (Or "HAPPY" ... ). Perhaps even Dollar Tree has patterned/designed napkins.

[@susancrosier5420]

Wow!! I love them both❤❤

[@peggyedwards8850]

Love this I use the purple glue stick and an old credit card to smooth the wrinkles out .

[@myraanderson9817]

Cards are beautiful, love them

[@raehenderson]

Gorgeous Natasha! Loved seeing you pop in Gina's live Tuesday night! I don't miss her videos and I don't miss yours LOL. Have a super blessed week ❤

[@NadineShort-c7k]

I absolutely adore these cards ❤

[@sandrawijckmans4306]

So pretty

[@janiew4109]

Both cards are beautiful! You are always such an inspiration.

[@jodicaraccio6529]

I love the lavender card!

[@sueplatt8899]

I didn’t think to use stick glue, I have always used a clear plastic wrap, like Saran Wrap-your lavender card is so pretty!

[@dianeboling4558]

These are both beautiful! I have been wanting to try the napkins. You made it seem so easy..thank you for your time❤️

[@carloshaun7297]

Gorgeous cards! TFS!

[@louisedavidson7775]

Love this Natasha, can you share where you got your napkins from, I especially love the birds. You said you picked them up so must be local. Also, love your website.

[@cmcarpenter123cardsandthings]

Great tutorial. I love them both xxx

[@irisbradley8777]

Beautiful, Natasha- both of them!

[@wandasimons3305]

I love these cards. I’ve decoupaged for many, many years. I was so excited to see you using the napkins!! By the way, which storage bags are you using to store your paper??

[@janicebell5925]

Both of your cards are beautiful. It’s almost a tie between the two. I think I love the humming bird card, because my dad loved the . He’d feed them so they would come back each year. First time watching this type of crafty and it does look interesting.

[@ChristieBrooks-f5r]

I would have never thought to use the Typewriter stickers! They look awesome on this card. Love both cards.

[@pattyfromherz9965]

very beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@cindybutke1625]

AWESOME cards! I have tried the plastic wrap technique and I didn't have the best luck. I am going to give this a try! Thanks

[@peggyedwards8850]

I always cut a bit bigger and glue down on the back as it’s neater and no risk of it peeling on the sides .

[@cecerudisill828]

Love the lavender one ❤

[@dianeyoung2914]

Love them both and I have some napkins ready to go.

[@sonjafrisbee5496]

Great Job Natasha your Crafting is simply awesome! I craft with Napkins to but never used them on Cards jet but I will now!❤❤

[@tabithagroves5211]

Just gorgeous Natasha❤

[@franjolavanhellemond4256]

I love how clever you made your printable labels, in which you can keep the outline or cut it off to make it smaller! Our printer didn’t work anymore but now we have a new one so I have to download these soon! 😃 Thank you Natasha for this free gift ❤

[@loribeck7496]

I collect napkins to use on cards. I usually iron them on to cardstock with cheap plastic wrap

[@edithellerton]

Hard to pick a favorite. They are both beautiful!

[@hilarygreek7830]

This is absolutely brilliant! What lovely cards!❤❤❤

[@jennifermarshall6353]

Beautiful cards Natasha, thanks for the ideas 😊

[@angelaharnett6437]

Beautiful cards x

[@maureenhadfield9315]

I absolutely loved today's video. I have so many napkins in my stash and now I have 2 more ideas to use them up. Thank you so much Natasha 💓 😊

[@user-fz9dr9gb2c]

Love them both!❤

[@kerrypocock1075]

I love both Natasha. Doing catchup

[@tiffanyhalsell7410]

My favorite is the lavender!

[@krissyknox7181]

@tiffanyhalsell7410 I love them both.

[@JennieMcNamara]

After I separate the layers from the cards, I keep the layers to use for cleaning up brushes, mats, dabbing watercolor cards, etc. I go through less paper towels and are a money saver for so many different things. 😊

[@kayetling8092]

I love working with napkins on cards.

[@molossergirl2]

Me too. I usually end up using an embossing folder as it hides a multitude of sins!

[@debbiefahey6069]

I'm not sure that I've told you lately how much I LOVE your videos! I'm retired and live alone but your craft projects give me great joy. Thank you so much!!

[@NatashaFooteCreative]

Aw this is so lovely Debbie. Thank you. I'm so glad they give you some joy! Much love, Natasha xx

[@shellyrulli5787]

Thank you so much for this video, Natasha! I'll try the technique. I like them both!

[@bonnerdebbie]

Wonderful cards Natasha! Thank you!

[@karendjohn8803]

Absolutely beautiful cards! Just love the bird print napkin. Not sure if you have it there, but in the states we have Mod Podge. It does the same thing as the medium. I occasionally will make just the card bases ahead of time. I put on the mod podge, let it dry. Then store my bases. When I want to make a napkin card, I grab a base & lightly iron on my napkin. (Have a thin cloth in between).

[@c.r.mcleod8959]

My go to method for putting napkins is the cling wrap, I've always got the best results with it. I also run it through an embossing folder some times too depending on the card I'm making. I also like adding fabric to cardstock too 🙂💙

[@charlottethien3749]

Natasha, Although I really think both cards are pretty, I really love the pink the best ❣️

[@teresamcdaniel3554]

These two cards are especially pretty!

[@dreamarobinson4277]

I love both of these cards! Can't wait to try.

[@Beate501]

I love both cards. 💜 Well, I have over 10,000 napkins and you just reminded me to use them on cards. I'll try it the next time. 😄Tip for gluing the napkins, which are not so easy to use with wet glue: double-sided iron-on transparent glue and a small travel iron... 😏😀

[@brendaelainewaddell1682]

Great cards. Thanks so much Natasha. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊

[@gailtuominen7707]

LOVE the Lavendar one!!! *Ü*

[@janmarch5039]

LOVED the card with the Lavender…I wonders how it would look as a square card? So soft and pretty, I have always seen the napkins cards but wasn’t sure how to make them, thanks for the tutorial !

[@lasinmt106]

The last lavender has my vote for favorite. I think I might want to add silver to the top layer of the YOU as a nice touch. Maybe a matte silver paper instead of mirror finish card stock. But both cards are lovely and I am surprised how well the napkin subtle designs and thin thin tissue thin comes through after glued down to card stock. Lovely and great video to watch.

[@donnam5891]

I have a drawer full of pretty napkins. Time to get them out. Love both cards but I'm on a bit of a bird thing also at the moment 🐦❤

[@creativetee1]

Both are beautiful cards. Have had packets of serviettes in my craft room for ages, ready to use on a project at some point, you've just inspired me to finally use them. Thankyou.

[@lindafrier1615]

Great cards💜,using napkins is one of my favorite ,easy techniques 😊

[@patriciathomas3053]

Natasha, I love watching you. I’ve been making greeting cards for several years and it’s nice to see your fresh ideas. I love the oval bird.keep up the great work and I will be watching you❤️

[@kiwipommiegirl]

Both your cards are gorgeous Tash, but I think the lavendar is my favourite out of the two. 😍👏

[@cherylcain890]

I love seeing all of the decoupage and napkins being used in papercrafting. There are so many beautiful patterns, and napkins are much less expensive than cardstock. Thank you so much for sharing this!♥️🙏🏻

[@brendadamon3606]

I love napkin cards!

[@pinkmosquito22]

Lovely cards, Tash! As much as I love the color pink, I actually think I like the purple card more.

[@mariguel2011]

Lovely!!

[@aliceshaw2011]

I have an ancient typewriter (you remember those) that has keys with those exact circular letters. I really like napkin cards. Good job.
