    Oh Rita, your message means more than you know! I'm sorry for your loss. I'm happy to hear that you'll be able to find comfort in crafting! Recently I've been doing a lot of book folding/foto book art videos; I'll have to do more cards. You should check out the foto book art ones - you might enjoy them.

    Hello... I love the way you attach the napkins. It's the best method I've seen. I have been using the ironed sandwich of cardstock, plastic wrap and the napkin, so much work but I love napkins. I must look into getting a Zyron machine. Here in Canada it is more difficult to find some of these tools. I do have a tip for you, hope you don't mind. I learned this from another napkin lover. Separating the layers of napkins can be difficult because they are embossed on the edges to keep the layers together. If you place a piece of scotch tape with a folded edge to hold onto, place it on the back of your napkin (away from the embossed edge) and pull up! It will separate the first layer and you can easily tear it away. Do the same thing for the second layer and you have your pretty napkin ready to go in a few seconds. Thank you so much for your tips and tricks.

    One trick to remove the layers is to roll a bit of sticky tape with the sticky side outside. Wear it on your finger and gently tap the back. The layer would stick to the tape, and make it easy to remove

    Wouldn't it be easier to add the card stock to the napkin before you die cut? That way you don't have to fussy cut around a scallop.
