The BG "DP" is a napkin using the Felted Cardstock Felted Cardstock Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers technique. I was in Ikea with Nancy (NJBaker) and Gayla (Snowcountry 311) and we each picked a napkin pattern we liked and then split the pkgs. Who needs 50 of one pattern? This was Gayla's choice. It was begging me to pair it with the new In Colors
A couple of thoughts on the technique: Your paper cutter blade may rip the napkin-make sure you have a sharp blade and maybe use scissors instead. While I had the iron hot I did a sheet of each napkin, so I had 3 sheets at once.
My other inspiration for this card was the teapot Marilynn posted for the MMMY teapot challenge. AND I tied in the Ways to use it challenge to add pizazz to a sentiment stanp-I just stamped it on my new DP. Thanks Marilynn and Michele.

This is so pretty. How nice of you to bring napkins to the teaparty. I tried this technique once last year. Then I misplaced my iron. Can you tell I don't do a lot of ironing? My kids and I wear only t-shirts and jeans and my husband wears work uniforms. Who needs an iron? Well for some of my Sunday go to church dresses...
This napkin is so pretty. I love your placement of the cut out leaves.
