Definition:
(noun) - Découpage is a French word that means "cut out" or "cut up." In English, découpage is a decorative form of collage, associated with craft more than with fine art.
Découpage is usually composed of paper designs or images from magazines that are cut out and glued to any surface (a canvas, a cardboard box, a chair - anything). The images may overlap as they cover the entire surface, creating a very exciting array of colors and visual relationships.
