You will just be using the printed layer for this craft.

Place a top coat of mod podge onto the napkin and continue to smooth any wrinkles.

Leave it to dry.

Trim any excess paper and use a sanding block to smooth the edges.

Once dry, use a fine tip brush to apply a thin gold line around the edges.
