I found some beautifully printed rice papers while I was in Italy.
My first effort at using them is offered here.
I accept that there is room for improvement with this particular make.
It’s a hexagonal storage box which I intend to keep seed packets in.

Anyone seen these papers?
It’s a bit like napkin decoupage, but the images available are gorgeous.

Thank you Lynda, Karen and Christiana for all your kind comments.
Karen - The scroll was one of the few stamps I took with me,
and I used a Stampin’ Up ink pad that was in my travel kit too.
Glad you like the result.

Rachel bless you and thank you.

Been meaning to tell you for ages.
Do you remember Tarquin the frog - your lovely tree frog image?

Well I made him into a birthday card for my DIL.
We were visiting there in June and he is still up in pride of place in their dining room.
Thought you would be chuffed - birthday card that has been out for 10 months (birthday in August!)!

Thank you all so much for your encouragement.
I’m a terror at being hyper critical of my own work.
It’s definitely on the learning curve though.
