The burn method may not work with thicker paper unless you can possibly separate the layers of the card. You could mod podge the cards to the letters, trim the edges as close as possible and use files like these www.thecelebrationco.com/products/sanding-files?_pos=1&_psq=file&_ss=e&_v=1.0 to sand in the tight areas.
That’s awesome and seems easy enough that I could actually do it! Thank you 🧡
You absolutely can!
Thank you for this fun idea! Send love from Thailand ❤️ (I discovered you from Facebook!)
We're so glad you could join us! Welcome to The Celebration Co!
Love it!!!
Love this and so simple! What is the “burnt” paint you used at the end?
It is Burnt Umber by DecoArt shop.decoart.com/
❤This! 💙
Thanks so much!
Can this be done with thin cotton fabric too?
Possibly. It probably won't burn as easily. I would stick with napkins, tissue paper or thin scrapbook paper.
Where’d you find the napkins?
Purchased here and there from party supply sections, TJMaxx, some given to us.
Did you use Mod Podge at all? If so do you let it dry completely before burning off the napkins?
Thank you 🙏
I used Elmers Craft Bond glue sticks. It creates a nice barrier for burning the edges.
I want to do something like this on letters with Pokémon cards. How do you suggest I do it?

Which's the kind of paint? Is the "home" made of wood??
The sign is made of wood. I glued on napkins rather than painting it.
What type of napkin are u using that has a backing that needs to be removed?
@@sylviaoudhuis9374 it's just a standard 2 ply paper napkin.
Sometimes paper napkins have two or three layers. We just want to use the very top layer
