It's a French company and I met the director at Stitch & Craft this year. The paper is very flimsy so to absorb the glue/varnish once dry the colours are very vibrant. I've written about that meeting with the decopatch lady on craft critique : http://www.craftcritique.com/2010/04...-craft-uk.html
Decopatch is the last bit on the article. I bought some glue years back but it's a bit cold sensitive and didn't have the right consistency so the year before I met another independent supplier and told him about my concern that it seemed a bit too tacky once dry. He gave me another bottle and that one worked perfectly giving a lovely matt finish with a subtle sheen. I tend to use it with very flimsy paper over some cardstock to give it rigidity like I did on this oriental card.
