Decorative Paper Napkins Post Card Swap - Postmark by Monday, August 13th

Sample by Doris

How many of us have picked up a party napkin and brought it home thinking we might use it for something... or purchased a package of fancy paper napkins on sale?  Do you have a stash?  If so, this is the swap for you.  Doris has volunteered to be our swap host, giving us a chance to put part of our lovely fancy paper napkins to good use.

Handling ideas:  Carefully peel the layers apart from one corner or edge so that you are working with the decorated layer.  (Pick at it with a pin?)  It takes patience to handle this fragile thin paper as you apply it to regular card stock as a background.


Adhesive options:  white glue, Mod Podge, matte or glossy gel medium.  (Allow to dry thoroughly before mailing to Doris.)

Possibilities:  outline design details, add paint or ink or rubber stamped elements, collage on top of the napkin design, combine parts from different napkins, etc.
