"Fabric" Flags

Many years ago, I used CC2 to create a couple dozen flags and banners for many of my campaign setting's various realms. Here's a link to my wiki that has an example of one:

I just saw this map over at Cartographer's Guild, and decided I'd like to use my flags on some of my maps in a similar fashion:

Since both my flags and maps are fcw files, it's easy enough to combine the two as is - but I really like that real fabric look.

My question is - is there an easy way to add that wavy/real fabric flag look to my flags using CC3+ and it's sheet effects?

Or would I be better served trying to figure out how to do it in one of my graphics programs (GIMP and Corel PaintShop)?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I don't come here often enough, can't figure out how to make those working links.

    Well, most of those wavy effects are just light and shadow, so you could probably make something like it in CC3+ (but there is no quick/easy way), but you'd probably be better off using an image editor, as they often have filters/plugins for doing things like that automatically.

    As for clickable links, the easiest is to use html code. Check the last post in this topic for details.
