Napkin to Cardstock?!? 

Now this is what an actual 5 minute craft, i love it +100 respect

I attach my napkins to cardstock with Modge Podge. I use a brayer to gently smooth out wrinkles. Let it dry & use or emboss. No plastic needed, no iron needed.

LLove this melting with plastic and using freezer paper & iron it - substitute the freezer paper for parchment paper & you can iron right over the freezer paper & the plastic - will adhere - just like it always does. I use a criicut and it has even heating. I also use a silicone mat ( shiny side up) - this way- the plastic melts - around the cardstock - right on to the silicone mat- and guess what- you just pull/ peel it right off- no sticking! I have used this method- on cardstock- Ive even used it on front & back of regular envelopes & Ive even used napkins to "dress up" those blank Mailer envelopes- WOrked great- The napkin bonds & fuses to the cardstock & I can make a bunch of cards & 12x12 napkin/ cardstock so easily. I even embellish the cardstock with cosmic shimmers & paint & stamp on the napkin/ cardstock. Note: the problem with regular irons- if you had them awhile- you may need to set them on highest setting & 2- no water & 3- the cricut is even heat at 3 levels & made for small projectt, so it yields the best results. Ive had mine 4-5 yrs now & still works like new. Hope that helps you- Donna

I cut my cardstock just a little larger than I need, paint on modgpod and let it dry, then using a carrier sheet and placing the napkin on top of cardstock and run it through my laminator, worked really well for me .

Plastic Wrap Hack My friend told me about this and called it: The Cadillac of Plastic Wrap You don't need any special brand. The one I got is just generic (Great Value brand), but it could be a life changer. The trick is in the special box -- it must have a SLIDE CUTTER! I never heard of this or would have sprung for the slightly higher price, but I'm so glad I did. It makes handling of the plastic wrap easier than pie. It makes it super easy to pick it up from the top corners, after the magic slide cutter on the box does its job for you. This way, it is easy to carry and handle without it getting all stuck to itself. You MUST try this elegant tool. Every kitchen deserves one.

I just used a glue stick in the card stick then applied the napkin! So simple!! Works great!

Gorgeous napkin. I think your iron wasnt hot enough to melt the plastic wrap. I use the hottest setting on mine with the plastic wrap from Dollar Tree. Works great.

Instead of the clear wrap use mod podge and let dry then put the napkin down and iron it on. It works every time. Love your crafts keep up the good work. 😊

First of all that napkin is gorgeous! Second I've never fried this. I have seen crafter do this but never knew the process. I will have to try but I think some say they use freezer paper. Tfs❤

I really need to give this a try. I’ve seen so many cute napkins at Tuesday Morning and on clearance. TYFS this idea/process. 💕💕💕

Tnx🥰

What a cool idea! I have never seen this done before. Now I might need to go find some pretty napkins. :)TFS!!!

I’m so curios to see if this technique works for me... I definitely have many napkins I have collected over the years because I think they are beautiful prints. Time to put them to use 😍😁

C'est très jolie merci pour le partage, même si je comprends pas trop l'anglais, j'adore vos idées pour fabriquer avec des chutes de papiers et créer des papiers avec des serviettes, j'ai hâte de voir d'autres idées... xoxo

I know this is a year ago and you've probably moved on to better things 🤣 but I'll just throw a few more ideas out there, freezer paper works great I've used that many times. I've also used the plastic wrap like you're doing in this video. You can also use double-sided adhesive, that of course is going to stick like crazy but I would caution you to be super careful laying down your napkin. That's a totally unforgiving method. Plus the other methods that the other Crafters have mentioned already on here. Your paper crafts turned out great! Tfs

This is a great idea! and I never thought of adhering napkins to cardstock. I've used napkins on mix media art on canvas and used Mod Podge to adhere and I've also used napkins in Bible journaling using Gesso. I'm wondering if the cardstock is very thick like the 110 lb sold at Michaels would that work with Gesso or Mod Podge? Rebecca you got my wheels spinning! Thank you for sharing. :)

I've seen a technique where you put down mod podge, let it dry, put the napkin on and THEN iron it. It melts the mod podge and causes the napkin to adhere to it. (Then, of course, once everything's adhered and dried, you can put another layer of mod podge on top if you want.)

I put my iron on the hottest which is cotton setting and that worked for it to stick.

I saw a gal cut a baggie for the plastic.

It looks to me that there is still another ply on your napkin. Im pretty sure that napkin is 3-ply.

I was wondering if you knew how the paper held up with folding? I’m looking to create my own paper to make paper fans

It has to be on highest heat

Yes you put the mod podge on the card stack let it complete dry. Then put the napkin on Then the parchment paper works perfect. DON'T US THE WRAY AT ALL. GOOD LUCK. 😂

Don't use Costco wrap, use generic.

I have I pack with flowere and they are in plastic so I don't know how to use it

Just use a glue stick. No hassle.
