Love what you have created here, I am definitely going to try this technique over the Christmas break, my friend who also makes cards is spending Christmas with me so we will have something new to keep us entertained we both have a minc machine so I can't wait, thanks a mil for sharing.
Thanks. Sept 2019, I have a mink machine, yes, I’ve used multi medium, mod Podge, iron technique, heat & bond to attach napkins, this way seems much easier, I’ll try it...
This is a nice technique but it seemed like a step was not mentioned and that is burnishing the glitter with your finger to insure it is pressed into the tape or the stamp n bond. Otherwise some of the glitter falls off and makes a mess
Great technique. What is the difference between the Minc & any other laminator.? I noticed you used a feeder ? I've never heard of a feeder before your video. Can you use the feeder with any other laminator?
The MINC gets much hotter than a laminator and so this technique works in a MINC but not a typical laminator. It also gets hotter faster and maintains it's heat so works better for foiling as well. The Minc comes with carriers that are clear thick acetate, but I have used parchment paper carriers in my laminator too and prefer that to just feeding through without any carrier.
No, I attached another napkin just like I showed and then cut out the butterfly die and punched out the smaller butterflies. The napkin only would be too flimsy but the napkin attached to cardstock makes it sturdy enough to die cut or punch.
If we don't have a minc and prefer not to use the older iron technique, is there a way to use a laminator? Maybe use glue instead of the cling wrap? What do you think? Love your napkin cards!
I tried my laminators and could not get it to work. I would not recommend glue in a laminator. You could try searching napkin cards in RUclips and on line- I may have seen some others try glue instead of the cling wrap but just not in a laminator.
I’ve just got a mini but can’t get the paper napkin and cling film to work Oct 2019 - I did use 5 for the heat. Any ideas as to what went wrong or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks
hmmm- not sure- maybe try letting it heat up a bit more? try a different cling wrap? run through several times? You did "skin" the napkin down to only one very thin almost see through layer, right? Good luck!
Sorry- don't have it anymore so am not positive. I think here is a link to the same one and the size is in the description: www.franticstamper.com/Tonic-Studios--Cutting-Die--Miniature-Moments-Many-Thanks_p_134872.html
Great idea, thanks for sharing
Can't wait to make some of these napkin cards.
That worked like a charm and so much easier than ironing! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing how you made these wonderful cards.
I just got a mini minc yesterday, so glad I saw this video. I'm going to try these ideas tomorrow!
Have fun Mary- I love mine and it works great for napkins and foiling!
@@KarenHasheck I've never tried foiling either so I'm excited. 😁👍
Very interesting and informative, Thanks as always Karen
Your cards are really gorgeous! Thank you for all the wonderful information.
It's a long video but loved it all the way. Great techniques!
Thanks Joan- I sure had fun designing with the napkins and Minc!

Thanks Evelyne. Did you get the prize package I sent? Just checking to be sure you got it.
Karen Hasheck Yes, I did this morning! Thank you so much! What a way to start the day!
Beautiful cards! Great idea! TFS!
Thanks- I had fun making and sharing the cards.
Pretty cards! :)
Awesome! Never thought to use a laminator. Yes the iron would never get all the edges 😁
love this

Did you cut the small accent butterflies out of napkin only ? Thx, enjoyed the video !
