Gayle you always make me laugh! "operator error", "talk among yourselves" etc. Such a joy to watch your videos!

Its been nice i just can never get enough time to watch enough of your vidios here I am 8 hrs later still watching more and more

I have used this method before and love doing it. It’s a great way to make your own cards or if you just want to fussy cut something on your napkin. Since this is a bit older, you may have discovered it already but your craft iron probably does not get hot enough. With a reg. iron, just put it on the hottest setting and it will cut time in half if not more. I even put the on playing cards which turned out amazing!

So fun, watching older videos that randomly come up on my TV while I'm cutting scrapbook paper 🤶🦌🎄

Lovely napkins ! So glad your daughter is better. It truly is a worry when our kids are not well. 🤗

I’m so glad your daughter is doing better! I have a craft iron too, but I often use a full size thrift store iron. The usually don’t steam anymore, and they cover more territory at once, thus saving time. Just use it when your husband isn’t around.i have a few items that are like that. I still use them when he is around also. It’s so sweet of them to buy these things, when I only mention maybe once that I think something is cool. He is so proud when he surprises me. Gosh, I wish you lived here and we could go thrifting together. Anybody out there that lives in the San Francisco east bay who would like to play? Bless everyone, and my love to all. There are lots of KZfaq videos about opening Etsy shops. Just beware, some of them are scammers. My daughter started an Etsy shop, but it’s going slooooow. I think her biggest issue is her lack of marketing in social media. That’s what I tried to explain that to her, but of course she wants todo it her way. She has that same left brain as her dad. Both believe the know better. Then there is right brained me, who watches every video, and could teach anything, but seldom sit down and do the work myself. I think one of the better teachers is I’m a cool mom. When multiple things come up that are similar, almost like magnets, it called “synchronicity” I think it’s kind of like you said about the universe. It’s a matter of the energy of two items attracting each other. O Lordy. I’m back to babbling. Blessings to you and your family❣️🙏

So good to hear your daughter is doing so much better PRAISE THE LORD JESUS.

Beautiful napkins. BUt i think I will do the modpodge way of adhering the napkins to cardstock. But I guess there is an advantage to this way. Maybe. I dont know. Looks like a lot of work to me. Lol I just like modpodging stuff. Lol hmmm now after seeing your blue and white napkins I might try it. I have a huge iron and it gets quite hot so maybe it will be pretty fast. Ok I will try it. Thanks dear lady. Ok dang I keep adding more to comments. So now you have essentially made scrapbook paper like I spend a fortune on from big box stores. Now I can just iron some napkins to my paper. Holy moley. What an experiment. Thanks so much Gayle

Oooo! Those transfers sent me straight back to my childhood! As others have mentioned, the designs are transferred onto fabric using an iron. When I was very little...decades ago...and learning to dress myself, my mom used cute little iron on transfers to let me know the front of my panties. She was quite crafty! I miss her so much and I'm a blubbery mess right now, but such a precious memory of how she encouraged and taught me to do things on my own.

Oh man this is great! I immediately made some on paper and it’s so much better than all that messy glue and wrinkles! Thanks Gail! And book pages and the back of scrapbook paper for a Christmas journal! Woo hoo!

I've done this technique using plastic wrap for years. Just learned how to do the same but using mod podge. Some put the napkin down on top of the PM while it's wet, but I wait for it to dry then lay the napkin down, parchment paper and iron! I like the MP way better. Don't have to worry about getting the plastic on your iron, which I have managed to do. I turn my iron up as high as it will go. I've done card stock and recently ironed onto the thin canvas' from the $ Tree. Also did one on the canvas with the wood backing. I found I had to find something that would fit into the back of the canvas to make it all the same height. Also do this on tiles. Coasters or hang with a ribbon or jute, twine. Whatever you want.

Wow how fun. Need me a small craft iron. Gayles favorite things here I come❤️

Now that’s the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while

So glad you daughter is better I will keep praying for her. I love this technique and I do save the backs of the napkins for background texture or sometimes I use a large background stamp on it and use it the wrap up my Etsy orders but I use a "Sticky Note" to pull the backs off because then it doesn't tare on me. Thanks for taking time out to share this and love how excited you were making them.

Gayle, I don't know how I will make it 4 days, without hearing you say -" this is Gayle". I am officially getting addicted to Crafting with you! Have a good trip!

Wonderful news about your daughter doing better! Praise the Lord! Glory to God

Hi Gayle, thanks for sharing! I found an easier and quicker way to do this, not my idea just saw it on another YT and it works. It’s a craft glue stick! You must cover the entire card stock edge to edge with the glue stick, and it does work! I also found it neater to wrap the napkin around the back and glue it down. Enjoyed our chat, thanks again. Love the napkins too! The tape trick is cool!

Hi Gayle , how's my friend. I wanted to share that I tried mamagomi and I love it.!! Now I'll try this one but I only have one set of napkins. Napkins. Thanks for sharing all you do. You are the ever ready bunny. Your batteries keep you running. I use to go and go I can't anymore so my crafting goes alot slower. But God bless you and your beautiful family. Love your love story too. Would love to see your wedding photo.

When I watch your videos I feel you are learning with me! Thank you for sharing!

I am so happy I found you. Love your work! You are the best!!❤

Love, love, love this technique! Thank you so much for sharing ❣

I love this project and can’t wait to give it a try! I have so many pretty napkins and now have another way to use them! Thank you Gayle!

Always enjoy watching you work ! Love those blue napkins ! I agree, journal making and selling them is a full time job and then the videos and marketing on top is a lot of effort and I don't do tutorials like you do so I appreciate all the time you devote to teaching us all the tips and tricks.

Enjoy your videos so much...it's like crafting with a fun friend. Thank you for taking the time to share them with us!

This video is awesome. Thank you for what you do. You are truly inspirational. I just don't say it enough. Love ALL your videos.

Love this technique, the pictures and colors just pop!! Love watching you!! Glad your daughter is getting better. Tfs

Ahh such pretty napkins, you make me want to go napkin shopping. Such fun 😍

So excited to try this today! Thanks for sharing. Loved all of them especially the double sided one! So happy to hear your daughter is feeling better. Continued prayers.

That's really cool!! Thanks for showing us different ways to do things! And thanks for the family/friends updates! We feel like your family, & love to hear your stories!!

I’ve never seen such beautiful napkins! Love this technique, thank you for working it all out for us. So very happy to hear your daughter is doing better.💕

So much fun!! I love it Gayle 😍

Thank you very much for trying the two sided copy paper, what a great idea for something unique in your journals.

FYI - when doing the bird napkin, you could have brought the birds down a bit and all four birds would have fit on the paper. It is amazing how putting the napkins on paper brings out their color❤️

So much fun! I knew it would work with both..got that feeling! Hugs! Have a nice trip! So glad your daughter is feeling some better! Will continue with prayers!

Wow this is so great it makes the napkins so vibrant I love how you can use it on regular paper you can make your own unique papers now that no one else will have. I enjoyed this tutorial. Thank you ❤

Thank you so much, Gayle. These came out beautiful. I especially like the one you did with regular paper. What fun!

So very interesting! I had never heard of or seen this done before now! Thank you for sharing the technique! 😊💕

Great video Gayle, I do love learning things with you, tfs.

Wow so glad you did this craft withme Gayle now i want to go do some. They really came out so cool. Tfs hugs. Karen 😊

I have never seen this technique before! I can't wait to try it! 💞

HI Gayle so happy your daughter is doing better, chronic ill health is challenging! So love this technique and your selection of gorgeous napkins are to die for. TFS, can't wait to try this

Love this technique! And I just got a used iron from Goodwill to iron my coffee dyed paper!!! Yay! Can’t wait to try this. TFS!

hooray! you did the napkin fuse!! i've been looking forward to this. i love how the 2nd generation napkin turned out AND especially excited to see it worked on copier paper-both sides! how FUN to have decorated papers from napkins without the glue/adhesive mess! these would be great for postcards/postcard swaps. add some stamping, washi tape and cut the cardstock into postcards and your done. the fused copier paper would make great envelopes too. thanks so much for sharing this technique with us Gayle. i'm so glad to hear your daughter is doing better. hang in there... safe travels 💖

Napkins and plastic...who would have thought this would work. I love it and can't wait to try it. Thanks Gayle!!

Love your experiment, I've seen Bohemian crafting doing it also with fabric instead of napkins. Happy your daughter is feeling better. Enjoy your time with family and shopping.

Such a fun project, loved the napkins you had, gorgeous ! I also loved hearing about your life. You are such a charming person. It was also very interesting to hear about your Etsy experience. I always kind of thought it might be a lot more work than I thought. I hadn't even considered the marketing aspect. Thank you

One of my favorite Craft with Me videos!! Mostly because I'm glad to hear your daughter is doing better. Continuing to pray until she is not just better, but best! Also glad to hear you got some date time with your son. Making memories is what it's all about isn't it? Thank you for paving the way for us on the copy paper technique! I will miss you while you're gone and I hope you and Mr. A have safe and blessed trip. Hugs! ❤🐰

Hi again, I’m excited about THIS. I’ve done napkins in cardstock and it’s beautiful and fun to do.

I love love love you and your videos and thank u for sharing ur amazing talent with us ❤️🥰

Gayle, I just finished the video and gathered up all of the things needed! I stamped a little bit on the card stock before affixing the napkin. I’m really pleased with the outcome! Thanks for sharing it!

I am happy to hear about your daughter. Your napkins are awesome, I tried it a while ago and I didn’t do so good but after your video I will try again.

I am glad to see that even a good crafter has a learning curve. It makes me feel better about my crafting mistakes. I think I am going to go ahead and use my leftover Christmas napkins for Christmas cards.

I don’t know how you find the time to do the fun things you do, but I am so happy you manage to keep up the teaching and entertaining of your subbies (of which I am proud to be one).

This was fun! So glad to hear your daughter is. Doing better.

Great news about your daughter getting better.....I am loving what you are doing Gayle, I have several of the same napkins you have in your stash. They look so vibrant when they are done. Will have to try this. Thanks for sharing......Cyndi M.

Just love to listen to you Gayle you don't mind learning as you go, a true Crafter,,,!

Roxy creations mentioned this in a video and I dashed over to your channel to check it out. What a great way to use up extra napkins with minimal mess. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful napkins Gayle. Great idea! That last page with 2 napkins is going to take off. You have created a new trend!💕🧚‍♂️💐

This was nice & interesting, especially the part of the napkin on both sides of the plain paper. That was a good discovery!!

That is a fun thing to do with napkins. I am so excited to see it work on copy paper. Copy paper is a lot less expensive that card stock. A double treat to be able to use both sides. TFS

Glad your daughter is doing better. This technique is wonderful! I have a heat press my hunny bought us for putting designs on t-shirts. I bet I could do 2 sides at once. The ones that were to short for one side you could add the pieces leftover from larger napkins. Wow i have tons of ideas now. TY Gayle you always inspire me! ❤xo💜xo💙xo💛xo💖xo💚

What a great project! I cannot wait to try it! 😊😊😊

So awesome to hear about your daughter doing better! Praise the Lord! Still praying for total healing! I was so happy to see you do regular paper because I was sitting here thinking as soon as you finished your video, I was going to try paper! Lol.

Great techniques! Good to hear your daughter is doing better too! Enjoy your time with them...

Love these. Definitely will try! Thanks for sharing.

TFS, Love the ones you made! I have tried this technique before and it worked out quite well.

Hi Gayle, I am so happy to hear your daughter is starting to feel a little better. It must be such a weight of her mind to know you are able to be there for her so quickly. I can't wait to try this technique it looks fairly simple but so effective. I am building up quite the napkin obsession thanks to you lol. Safe travels and enjoy your time with your daughter and grandchildren 💕

How awesome, I love that technique Gayle. Abby is a wonderful crafter. Tfs. It was very relaxing to see you iron away lol! Hugs.💙

So cool! Didn't know that, a good thing I m checking your earlier videos 😁😘

Love! Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your time away. 💜💜

I’ve never seen this technique before. It’s fabulous!

What a genius you are! I think you just revolutionize double sided paper!

Gayle this was so informative I've enjoyed watching it and learned a lot; now to get me one of those cute little irons and give it a try. TFS 😊❤

This reminded me of the 1st time I saw you pull the backing off a napkin...but you put the tape on the top layer of the napkin instead of the back. We've come a long way Gayle. This gave me an idea of how to stabilize a very, very old piece of sheet music. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Simply beautiful I’m gonna make it right now thank you for sharing this beautiful project God bless stay safe

Thanks for this video Gayle, I learned heaps and am heading off to give it a go myself.

I’m so glad u tried copy paper as that’s what I would get more use from.

A piece of foil under the bottom parchment paper might make the sealing go a little faster as it will reflect the heat back...just a thought...Hugs!

I have purchased the heavier card stock by accident as well......it makes great tags! It won’t go through my printer either! Thanks for this...I have just completed your tri fold envelope using a napkin decoupage.....it came out lovely.....this is something new to try too...❤️❤️❤️

Just have to say I can craft and do what ever with you so relaxing love your Ideas now here is another one I get to try!! Im still new to this you tube channel thing!

So funny you are trying this out Gayle,I was just gathering things together to do just the same thing, so I'm having fun watching you try it for the first time. Glad to hear you're daughter is feeling better, I know what you mean about driving in the storms,and at night time too not so much fun when we get older. Enjoy your time with your family. tfs

These napkins used as transfers are just gorgeous. I love to hear you talk about your grand daughters. I have one and she just started playing volleyball this year. I didn't get to go to a game because of covid. Have fun this weekend but be safe.

You're a girl after my own heart, do it first time on camera with a wing and a prayer lol. But the results were absolutely gorgeous. I'm definitely going to try this, I'll let you know how it goes ☺ thank you Gayle and best wishes, Ali x

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER SEEN THIS DONE-ITS SO PRETTY,TFS-HUGS/BLESSINGS
