I used the technique discussed several weeks back in the weekly inkling using gift wrap tissue paper, saran wrap and card stock. I could not find a category for this to fit in so I chose gift card. I used a napkin (which I peeled down to one layer) and saran wrap and card stock to make the image on this card, no stamping was used. The round tab punch was used for the tab and I used brushed gold and 1/4 circle punch for the 'screws' on the tab, sponged the edge in basic black and versamark then embossed edge with gold TFL

I way I did this technique was to put a piece of parchment paper (found in baking dept.) on your ironing board, so as not to get melted plastic wrap on it.
Then lay your piece of cardstock on the parchment paper.
Then lay a piece of plastic wrap over your cardstock. The cheaper plastic wrap, the better.
Then just the one-ply of a pretty paper napkin. You'll have to separate the other plys from it to end up with just one.
Then another piece of parchmentment paper (so as not to get plastic wrap on your iron) and iron over it so the plastic wrap melts and adheres the napkin. You want to use a dry iron, but I don't remember what temperature setting.

This is sure beautiful...you make me want to try that technique. This is a magnificent napkin and I love all your details. It is so creative of you how you made your screws, they look so real. TSMFS

it seems I am a little late reading my comments. KOYOTE KI has given the directions and that is how I did it with the exception of the parchment paper. I just used plain copy paper on my ironing board. I set it at the hottest temp.
