Hello Stampendous Friends! It's me, your favourite UK correspondent! :). Time for new inspiration from Asia King :).
Today I am taking you down memory lane... I originally blogged this project a while ago. Then I had to take it off the web for a while when it was accepted for publication :).
This project is very special to me as it captured the hearts of the fantastic team at Stampendous and that's how they found out about my Creative Spell :).
And it was the first time I tried the awesome technique of...errr...napkin art... At that point I didn't really dare calling it 'decoupage' as I didn't want to upset any pro-decoupage-artists with my shy attempts lol ;).
