My third card for the napkin transfer technique challenge. I skipped the ironing on freezer paper altogether and used spray mount on the card stock onto which the napkin was to be transferred. Much easier and tons faster!
I Cuttlebugged the image panel with Swiss Dots, not only for the effect but also to smooth out the embossing already on the napkin edges. Put this over Cameo Coral cs and punched some wide ovals with Cameo and Purely Pom. Stamped in Purely Pom, then popped it all up on dimensionals.
This is the sixth card for the Chemo Angels. 4 to go!
Thanks for looking!

Your card is beautiful. At first I thought it was for the color challenge this week - the colors are close. I really like the effect of the swiss dot embossing and your sentiment is so fitting for the image. TFS.

I understand why you used the spray mount, but tell me, how did you know it would come out as well, if not better, than the cumbersome technique that was suggested? I would never have known this was a napkin, Divine Ms M. Oh, how creative and clever are you. This card is just fabulous!

Just gorgeous! Since I heard about this technique, I've been on the lookout for some pretty napkins to work with! Beautiful choice here and wonderful results!
