Decoupage is a techinique of gluing down the paper on to surface combining with various painting techniques and make it look as part of the surface,make it look like a print.

Next "On What bases you can decoupage?" Wood,Glass,Metal,Leather,Fabric on almost all kinds of base.

Next question is is" What kind of papers you can use? "All kinds of papers  Tissues,Rice paper,Decoupage speciality papers,Pattern Papers,Magazine papers,Normal printer papers and even fabric can be used ,only thing to keep in mind is the colors in the print do not bleed when in contact with the glue.I am sharing a video tutorial where i have used five different papers to decoupage and made these lovely KeyChains...
