This is my second fall tree card! I really enjoy this technique and the cool results you can get with the napkins! I used cheap dollar store napkins.

This tutorial is gonna take some practice. The layers kept separating no matter what dies I used. Here's my third attempt.

Didn't get quite the texture I'd hoped and had to adhere some of the layers together but will try this technique again. Love the way it took the colour!

This is so cool, I used kraft colored napkin from Arbys and backed it with kraft cardstock. so the ground on this card was painted white haha.

Neat technique to give texture to die cuts and doesn't require great watercolor skills. Thanks.

Hard challenge to do, since the layers of the napkins kept separating. But I made it work.
Happy Birthday Floral

This was a fun tutorial to try, I want to do it again. It was hard to select the die.

Well-- didn't quite understand what would make a good die and picked ones with lots of poke out places.....will post photo of the tragic first results that are not going to make a card....but onsecond try with different die I was pleased....
Wasn't sure about gluing but having read the thread see I wasn't alone in needing to keep the napkin on the CS. I really think I have several dies that will do justice to this technique and may try some additional ones just for fun.

I am seeing comments here that mirror my experience pretty well. While eventually I got something made, it wasn't easy.
Here's my first card:
