I've never heard of this before, is this kind of like the current product "Pounce"? I'm assuming the cornstarch would be easy to remove - does the nutmeg leave any residue? Hmmm....I have a big bottle of nutmeg that will take me forever to use, I may have just found a use for it. lol

How did you do the cornstarch method? Did you use stencils with perforations? Does Mountain Mist still have designs? I would like to try this.
