After watching several videos on Decoupaging Napkins [One with Glue Stick, one with Mod Podge, one using sandwich wrap and a dry iron [did not work] - I decided a Glue Stick was my choice for decoupage - yet I added a STEP - my Dry High Heat Iron! I am so amazed this process worked so well.
I have a Decoupage tutorial coming soon. [When I learn how to do a video for You Tube, I will make one showing all the steps I used for Decoupage - but for now, pictures and wording will be the tutorial to be posted soon on this blog].
I am over the moon loving decoupage napkins & guest towels for crafting - it is quick, fun, and EASY!!
So on with my Tag Recipe
*For the background of my tag - Manila Cardstock with the second layer of the Guest towel decoupaged on the cardstock [I was amazed there was a lighter designs on the second layer], while the 3rd layer is plain.
For a napkin - it is usually 2 ply - with only the top layer with the pattern.
*The pumpkin is from a Fall Napkin. It was decoupaged, then fussy cut.
*Cuttlebug - for the Stitched Tag Die
* Misti - STAMPLorations Sending Lots of Latte Love Coffee Cup Stamp - Orange Ink
Scrap of Kraft with black butterfly patterned paper for the sleeve of the Coffee Cup - fussy cut and glued
* STAMPlorations Sentiment on Pumpkin from the Toasty Mug Stamp Set - Versafine Black Ink - Misti
Here they are - the paper goodies! On Left: Guest Towel - in the center layer 2 of Guest Towel which is my backing on my tag - on RIGHT: Paper Fall Napkin with the pumpkin.
I have several tags made from the Guest Towel that I will be posting soon! Thanks for stopping by! ~ Gail ~

ReplyDeleteLike this decoupage look. Bought some Pumpkin Spice creamer to add to my Green Mountain Pumpkin Spice Coffee K cups and it makes it taste better. I had bought StarBucks Pumpkin Spice Latte K cups and they were good and no need to add anything to but finished them up.
