- In this video I’ll demonstrate the “iron-on” method to adhere your decorative napkins to card stock!
I’ll take you step by step so you can use your paper napkins to make: Christmas cards, note cards, gift tags, place cards, bookmarks and more! This method is perfect for all paper crafts, rubber stamps, collage, book making, scrapbooking and more!
With this method I will be using plastic wrap instead of Mod Podge decoupage glue.
This is easy and very budget friendly! You only need card stock, cheap Dollar Tree plastic wrap, cooking parchment paper and an iron (An iron put aside for crafting is ideal)
Cards made with napkins are beautiful to look at and have a soft velvety feel, much different from scrapbook paper. Napkins are a great alternative to scrapbook paper!
Another great method to use with your paper napkin collection!
So come decoupage with me and let’s do some fun paper crafting! Joan-Marie Domino 😀

I’d use the scraps of the napkins to decorate matching envelopes for the cards rather than, or along w/ stamping. 🤗

Hi Joan
I love this video and the other one with you using the mini iron(very cute). This is very simple for me to do and it is a good idea. People could write their own message in the card. TFS☺
Hi Denise! I think it is simple too but such a BIG WOW who would know how easy it is? Thank you for watching! - Joan 😃
Brilliant,🥰🥰🥰
Hi! Thank you so much! - Joan 🙂

Thank you! 🙂- Joan
Just stumbled upon your channel looking for using napkins on cards. This technique is great!!! Thanks for sharing and making this video. Even though this is 2yrs ago. Its still very much appreciated! Going to try this technique! Thanks again!
Thank you for watching. I have a newer version as well you can take a look at: ruclips.net/video/QRpNvT7wv3Q/видео.html&si=O7MyYdnaCo_T20n0
My sister will l9ve your ideas for her junk journals
These are such amazing ideas, thanks for sharing! Definitely going to try this!
Hi Barb! Thank you so much! 🙂 Joan
@@JoanMarieDomino May I ask you how do you prevent streak mark's seem through the glass plates? A couple other plates I did were not bad but this year I had trouble and the streaks show through? What am I doing wrong 😳
I use a very soft brush and as little mod Podge as needed. I go back and forth with my brush a lot. It’s just a bad habit think but that may also help. But I do get brush marks too. Joan
@@JoanMarieDomino Thank you very much 😊
Found yr channel. Watched this tutorial 3 times to make sure I had the correct steps and take note of all the different ideas 💡 👍
Great ideas for sharing. Thank you so much from Denmark 🇩🇰
Thank you for watching and hopefully it will go well for you! 💕
Thank you for all the useful tips. Your projects are beautiful. I have tried using Heat & Bond for adhering napkins to different surfaces, but it is a little tedious. Your iron on method is really fast and easy and inexpensive.
One Word thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed my video! The first time I saw the iron-on technique my jaw dropped! I had to share this technique with other crafters. 🙂❤️
I'm going to try this iron on method and try some cards love all your ideas gift tags book marks..ill need to write down the layer steps..
Thank you so much! Yes the layers are very important! Have lots of fun! - Joan 😃
JOAN, I HAVE TO TELL YOU WHAT A GREAT JOB/IDEA YOU'RE DOING WITH THESE NAPKINS. I TOO LOVE THE GREAT DESIGNS THAT ARE ON NAPKINS. TUESDAY MORNINGS HAS A GREAT SELECTION OF NAPKINS ALL YEAR AROUND.I HAVE A WHOLE BOX FULL OF NAPKINS, AND NOW BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO I HAVE A WAY OF USING THEM. AND I AM NOW 1 OF YOUR SUBSCRIBERS. TY VERY MUCH. WONDERFUL VIDEO. (SORRY ABOUT THE ALL CAPS BUT I DO NOT SEE VERY WELL.) HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!
Hi Tammy! Thank you so much for your kind words! It is truly amazing what can be done with pretty napkins, enjoy your new craft! - Joan ❤️
Great iseas
I love doing paper napkins cards. Quick, clean , and simple. I do one more step when ironing the napkin. I flip the card over to the back side and quickly run the iron one more time. By doing this I ensuring I catching all the corners and this method also helps the card from warping, which may sometime happens if the iron is too hot .Also if the iron is too hot, you may also experience air bubbles. There is moisture in the paper and if the iron is too hot , this may happen.
Thank you for the tips! ❤️ Joan
I love your videos - can you tell me where to purchase the sticky calendars? Thanks so much
Vippies Designs www.vippies.com
I've watched several of your videos and they are fantastic. I just finished my first two iron on projects and they turned out great--no wrinkles at all. Do you know if there is a way to get a crackle effect when using the iron on method?
Not sure that would work because the crackle is done with glue and the iron would probably melt it, then no more crackle...lol I usually crackle and then just decoupage on top , no iron, just my fingers and some Saran Wrap.
The crackle kind of hides any wrinkles that may pop up. Hope that helps and thank you for the kind words! 🙂
Beautiful! I love this idea! Do you think this method is effective on a canvas? Maybe difficult on the raised canvas but I'd love to try this on the flat canvas. At the mean time, it's August and it's time to make Christmas cards!
Hi! Yes those stretch canvas are tricky to work with. You need to put a book under it and then try. Flat canvas works great. The Dollar Tree is now selling a rather large flat canvas that’s perfect for signs. I just grabbed a couple! Have fun with those Christmas cards! 🎅🏼🎄 - Joan
Thanks for your reply. I wanted to use designer series paper from Stampin'Up but it's a heavier weight than the napkins. Will the SU paper work? Thanks
Beth and HD Mitchell I think it would be too heavy and the cover would than be too thick to tuck under the little flap. The napkin scraps are so thin, the cover tucks right under. - Joan 🙂
I got some stupid questions. The mini Santa calendar what kind of paper is on the back? Also on the second card with the merry Christmas where do I find those white cards you put it on and what are they called? Lastly with the green card how would I get it to open up into a card?
Can you use this technique to put on wooden plaques from Dollar Store cute idea thanks for sharing
chayo medina Yes! I’ve done that too! I already have a video for ironing on wood and another coming! Hummmm....Love those Dollar Trees! 😆
chayo medina and thank you so much! 🙂
Wow. Great idea. I’m going to try this using a Teflon ironing cloth instead of parchment paper. But where did you find such beautiful napkins? And are they just regular napkins?
Hi Teresa Sue! I have never used a Teflon cloth, I’m not sure it will work, let me know. The napkins I use are from Vippies Designs. Vippies has a really good selection and you can order just one of any design so no minimum. They are paper napkins. They’re website is www.vippies.com 🙂
❤
What temp is the iron set at? Love this !
On paper I would go a little cooler then wood so medium
Please do tutorial that calendar type in that pic change also, nice tutorial
Calendars available here www.vippies.com I don’t make them
@@JoanMarieDomino thank you for reply 😊
Where do you find the Sticky Tiny Calendars?? What a Fabulous Idea! I love working with napkins!
KenoBabe777 Thank you! I get my calendars from Vippies Designs www.vippies.com - Joan 🙂
@@JoanMarieDomino Thank You!!!
Can you make these cards and gift tags using pva glue or is that not recommended.?
Love your videos so much. Thanks for explaining things so well.
You can make cards with glue as well. I have another video where I apply glue to the card stock, wait for it to dry and then do the iron-on method. The baking parchment on top of the napkin which is on top of the card. The other video is for creating wall art where I use glue instead of plastic wrap. Thank you so much for your very kind words! 🙂- Joan
I just order round wood blanks for Christmas ornaments. Wondering if this technique would work in wood
Hi Toni! I would do it like I do coasters in this video, I think you’d get better results! ruclips.net/video/MihwsRX9UYo/видео.html - Joan 🌻🙂
@@JoanMarieDomino thank you soo much. You do amazing work. I just love following you
Hi Joan,
Great video! I just followed your instructions to a T and nothing is sticking! Help!
Hi! If you followed to a T then I really don’t know why...the iron not hot enough, too hot, brand of Saran Wrap you’re using, etc. you can also use Mod Podge to make napkin cards too. Sorry that is the about all I can think that may cause not sticking. Joan
The matchbooks you make with the Easter theme (chick, rabbit) and the Fall leaves (shown in the Vippies ad - are they decoupaged?
Hi Beth! Yes most of the matchbook notepads I decoupage is with scraps of napkin. A little MP glue on the cover and place a napkin scrap on top and smooth with fingers. - Joan 🙂
Where did you get that little iron you used before?
Hi. I am Raazia from Pakistan. I recently found out your videos. It was great. Just tell me one thing can we use wrapping paper or any beautiful paper for mod podge. We don't have these types of paper napkin. Plz reply soon.
Hi! It depends on the project. Wrapping paper is thick unlike the sheerness of a napkin. You can use gift tissue if you have that, rice paper, etc or just use the paper for flat items. Hope that helps. Joan
Could you use this technique on photo printed on ink jet printer on card stock?
Hi Judy! The ink from ink jet printers is not permanent. I think it will work because there is no wet glue involved but I’m not sure if the heat from the iron wouldn’t cause it to transfer to the parchment paper. That’s the long answer. Short answer is I’m not sure so do a little test on some scraps first. Let me know what happens! Good luck! 🙂 Joan
Ps - so how is it sticking without glue or mod podge? Also Joan I notice with your iron on technique sometimes you don’t need to add another layer of mod podge sometimes? I tend to want to add more? Thank you ❤️
Hi Karen! I don’t think I understand your question. I do not use glue, I use another product. It’s important you watch again so you can see how I adhere. I only put top layers on things that will be handled a lot. Hope that helps! - Joan 🙂
Your videos are great! I just have one problem. When you pull your napkins apart you make it look very easy. However, I tried it (with a regular table napkin) and could not get it separated. I've ordered some decoupage napkins so I'm hoping they will come apart easier. Is there a secret to getting them separated that I'm missing? Thanks.
Hi! It took a little practice but it’s the quickest way for me. You can also use scotch tape on the back ply and that works as well. Still takes a little practice.
Can you use a heat presses and how long at what temp
Hi Helen! I don’t own a heat press I just do it as shown in the video. Joan
Hello, does it matter what brand of plastic wrap you use ? I’m using Kirkland stretch-tite and I can not get it to stick to my card!
I can answer my own question! Yes it matters, the Kirkland brand doesn’t melt. I tried the Saran Wrap and NO problems !
The cheap stuff works best. I use Aldi it’s good for food too, lol 😄 Joan
What brand of plastic wrap are you using? I have tried Great Value it doesn’t melt? Thank you in advance for your time to respond.
Hi Sandee! I use Shoprite brand, that’s our regional food stores in NJ. Check out this video, I updated this technique so I hope it helps! ruclips.net/video/QRpNvT7wv3Q/видео.html Joan
Could you use the circuit iron to do this method?
Hi Camille! Yes a craft iron is the best. I didn’t have a cricut then but I have one now! It’s awesome! Thanks for watching! - Joan 🙂
Hello, Joan-Marie, I would love to purchase the wintery scene napkin that has 4 differnt winter scenes with houses, however, I can't find it on your website. Is that particular napkin still available? Any info you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thanks 💐
Hi Dee! Sorry I’m just seeing this. I’m not sure but I’m thinking it may have sold out. Some of the napkins I use in videos sell out. Vippies may have something similar. - Joan 🙂
@@JoanMarieDomino No worries. I did check Vippies and couldn't find it. I'll check around again for it closer to the holidays. I also really like your nail polish in this video. Do you recall the color/brand?
Cool video... question...is the napkin the same as tissue paper? Or is it a real napkin? Thanks!!
Hi Luci! It is a decorative paper napkin. You can also use gift tissue paper. - Joan 🙂
@@JoanMarieDomino thank you soooo much!!!
Deze wil ik graag in het nederlands
Ik wil een Nederlandse tekst
Help! Just now tried my first card - followed your instructions to the letter - it hasn’t worked - I am using glossy cards (they’re all I could get) so could that be why? They’re not porous enough?
I never tried glossy. You can use Mod Podge instead of the Saran Wrap which may work better. 2 coats of Mod Podge where you want the napkin. Let dry between coats then follow the rest of the steps in the video. Good luck! Joan
@@JoanMarieDomino thanks Joan - that’s a good tip which I’ll try next time. . I just modge podged it on in the end and it actually has no wrinkles !
Where do you get the little calendars
Hi Cheryl, from Vippies Designs www.Vippies.com
@@JoanMarieDomino ok thanks so much
Can you use a sandwich bag?
Hi Erma! No, a sandwich bag is too thick. Use plastic/Saran Wrap. - Joan
Ideas
Hi Carol! Thank you! 🙂 - Joan
Does it matter what side of the parchment paper you iron on.
Hi! I don’t think so but look at the label on the box and see what it says. Joan
Can you use this method on other medium?
Hi! Yes I have other videos where I use the iron-on method on different objects, take a look! - Joan 🙂
@@JoanMarieDomino With the plastic wrap?
No, this is the only thing I use with the plastic wrap.
@@JoanMarieDomino Thanks! I am learning so much from you!
What setting did you have your iron set to?
My Little Craft Place The iron I was using was set on medium cotton, no steam. Iron should not be hotter then it needs to be so check the iron that you use as each iron can be different depending on brand, age, etc - Joan 🙂
@@JoanMarieDomino Thank you! :0)
Can you show how to do envelopes
Hi Shama! The envelope is in another video, here: ruclips.net/video/QRpNvT7wv3Q/видео.html - Joan 🙂
Where we can purchase magnet s , please put link
Amazon sells magnets. Craft and hobby stores also sell magnets. Hope that helps
@@JoanMarieDomino thank u 😊
So you dont put a top coat if you use Saran Wrap for a card. So much info in this one video. I hit the bell too.
Hi! No need for a top on cards plus I think the sealant is too wet for paper. If you want you can laminate to protect the card, that’s a good option to protect items like for a bookmark. Thank you so much for ‘hitting the bell’! 🙂❤️
