    Stencils are so versatile and give such lovely results. The lifting of the ink is really effective. This just goes to show that sometimes the simplest things are the best! Thank you.
  • A very nice way to start a Saturday morning, coffee and Allison and a few minutes of gorgeous fun!😁😁

    I don’t mind your “few minutes of fun” videos being longer as you are showing us great techniques and inspiring play time! Keep them coming!
  • What a lovely start to a Saturday. The reverse flower is perfection. Thank you for sharing.
  • @Alice-rb6uz
    I love the Floral stencil and the technique using the deposited ink on the surface, spraying and reversing the stencil. Thank you Alison.
  • @cigale1254
    They are all gorgeous, this time (surprisingly) the dark blueish ones are my favourites.
  • Great way to begin the weekend. Always inspiring and such beautiful creations. Thank you! Glad you found your salvaged patina. 😊
  • Love the lifting techniques, thankyou for sharing these gorgeous tag applications 😊
  • @44hopeful
    Awesome 👏 Thank you for sharing these great techniques 😊
  • @edithmars3449
    I love how you layered with these stencils using beautiful colourcombinations and created these gorgeous backgrounds😍 they look all so good, but that reversed flower is just fabulous even that 2th subbtle one❤thanks for the inspiration because these techniques were somewhere sleeping in my brain, so happy you woke it up again😃 have a wonderful weekend, Alison❣️
  • I would really love to see you take these tags further and make a tag book with them so we can see how to make a book. I'm crafting along with you this time 😊. Although, I am using different stencils because I don't have the same ones you used as of yet.
  • Wow! Fabulous 😍 I'm going straight to get myself a few more inks to try and do something beautiful if I can. Thanks for the video ❤

    I use a piece of the Original Magic Eraser, through the stencil after I've put down my inks, and it'll even remove dried archival ink. Saw it on a video somewhere. More than for house cleaning :)
  • Nice, yes sure but you must have about £100 pounds worth of supplies on your desk there. A luxury joy for sure.
  • A very nice way to start a Saturday morning, coffee and Allison and a few minutes of gorgeous fun!😁😁
