QUESTION Hi Judy. I stumbled onto your video, stayed, watched and have become your newest subscriber. I was wondering if it is necessary to separate the layers since you are usimg a paper towel, dampening the lot and embossing? Thanks so much. 🤐🇨🇦
@judywest-thepaintingnana9434 Жыл бұрын
Hi Brendaelaine, thank you for subscribing. I found that the layers stayed together much better when separated and put back together. I do not know why, but it made the bond more secure for some reason.

I've made cards with napkins but always used spray glue. I'll give this technique a go as the smell of that glue would suffocate me if I used it too much.
@judywest-thepaintingnana9434 3 жыл бұрын
Hope you find this method useful to you. I hate the smell of strong glues and paints so I try to avoid them as much as possible.

Do they come apart with time? Like others said, I’ve always used glue/modge Podge. I’d be worried they would come apart later on. ❤️🇦🇺

I only came across this method at then end of last year so my cards have held together so far. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Could you give measurements
@judywest-thepaintingnana9434 3 жыл бұрын
The measurements depend on the size of the design on the napkin Kathy that you want to use. If the napkin design is 4 1/2" (11.5cm) square them the pink section will be 4 3/4" (12cm) square and the card front will be 5" (12.5cm) square which makes the card 5" x 10" (12.5cm x 25cm) when open. I just add 1/4" (.5cm) as I go up or down a layer.
@dianeoneil9563 2 жыл бұрын
Can you not just leave the napkin plies together, add the paper towel to the back, then spray it and emboss it?
@judywest-thepaintingnana9434 2 жыл бұрын
Try both and let me know what you think. I felt they bonded better if they were separated first.
@charlenedunne8358 3 жыл бұрын
What are the dimensions of your card? 4x4? American measurements please.
@judywest-thepaintingnana9434 3 жыл бұрын
I made it big enough to get most of the design from the napkin. Depending on the size of the napkin you have, will depend on the card size. It is a square card though. Also consider what size border you want around the edge and if you want another layer between the napkin and the card showing through. I think mine was about 6 x 6 as the design was quite large. I have given it away now so do not have it to measure Charlene.
