Ink & Flip Inspiration Week - Day 1

Hello & Happy Monday.

Welcome to the first Ink & Flip Inspiration Week of 2026.

If you're not sure what an Ink & Flip is, keep reading and stick around this week as you'll get all you need to know, inspiration and more from myself and the Uniko Brand Ambassadors about these unique and creative stencils. 

Ink & Flip Stencils first debuted on the Uniko brand back in July 2023. It is a unique concept I designed that began with fun geometric designs. Since then I have developed the concept further to create all over patterns. There is currently 13 different Ink & Flip Stencils available HERE on the website, literally something to suit everyone. 

There is lots of inspiration here on the blog, by searching Ink & Flip in the sidebar. Plus there are lots of videos and shorts over on the YouTube Channel.

When I do an Ink & Flip Inspiration Week, it usually means there are some NEW Ink & Flip Stencils on the way. And I am pleased to say there are two new designs coming at the end of the month. 

Anyway, enough talk, let's get to some inspiration. Here is what I have created for today...

I first chose to use the Ink & Flip Layering Geometric Butterfly Stencil, as I have had this rainbow idea for a while. It took some time to mask and ink both sides, but I really think that it was worth the time.

I also wanted to pair the butterfly with something different than the background layer that comes with the butterfly, so I chose Ink & Flip Delightful Diamonds Pattern. I inked the diamonds in Pebble and Dove to make the rainbow colours pop. My sentiment choice today is from Floral Vines.

As it's a special week, I thought I would offer all of the Ink & Flip Stencils at 20% off this week. A couple of the stencils that are out of stock are available on back order too.

Thank you for joining me today. I will be back tomorrow with the lovely Anita to share more inspiration using these fun and creative stencils.
