Jenna Templeton is a writer, designer, self-publisher, blogger and crafter from Sydney. She enjoys making fun, bright, colourful, quirky, cut & paste, Kawaii-Pop creations. Her works are inspired by Japan’s colourful street subcultures and modern Japanese crafts. Each of her works features her #No.1 craft tool – washi tape! She can normally be found working on new crafty projects in her mini-home studio and blogging about her creative adventures via her website; mylifeasamagazine.blogspot.com/.
