Excellent video. You allowed the close ups time to focus so we could see what the really smalls items looked like. And I loved that you put up some of the pix of what the finished item looked like.

[@MBGRAYDESIGNS]

@@metababycow you are so welcome!! It’s so funny because I watch a lot of card makers and scrapbookers but I am a mini album girl and have never made a card haha. I don’t know why I think I’m intimidated.

[@loki666100]

I got a new one this week. It is a bottle with a moon and stars in it and stars around it. Really nice. Love yours I may need to go and get that.

[@metababycow]

Ooh that sounds adorable! You can never have enough cute ones in my opinion 🤣😜❤️

[@maiingan07]

That was fun, thank you, especially for looking up all of the prices and links. I think I checked most of them out, and threw a couple in my cart.

[@metababycow]

You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it, and enjoy your goodies if you decide to purchase 😘❤️

[@tlovesJesus4ever]

Hello love your video and how you take the time to describe the product. If you could please make a video on how to use the layering stencils that would be great

[@metababycow]

Thank you so much! Your wish is my command - I've started working on that one already ❤️ I have another layering stencils video on my channel but the next one will have even more techniques!

[@KimberlyCreates]

Great haul!!

[@metababycow]

Thanks so much Kimberly! Glad you enjoyed it ❤️

[@tinagillhamevans667]

Lovely things would love to see the stamps and dies used

[@metababycow]

Thanks Tina! Keep your eyes open to see some of these featured in upcoming tutorials and process videos x

[@Angelina_Art_Journals]

I have that same washi tape in my cart!

[@metababycow]

Pretty isn't it 👀 now I just have to use it 🤣

[@naturewoman1274]

Hi alli love your channel, can you tell me what the stencils are like from ali express cheers

[@metababycow]

Hey thanks so much! Yes, they are on the thinner side for stencils mostly, but I have no complaints - I can use them as I normally would for ink blending and mixed media with no trouble 😘

[@CajunPride777]

Great haul. Links aren't working. It shows at the top that I've been redirected to Aliexpress but the screen is just white. I'll try back later the problem may just be something wrong on my end.

[@metababycow]

Hey lovely! Thanks so much for watching 😘 I've checked some of the links and they seem to be working ok, but I find sometimes clickable links don't want to work on mobile. I'd suggest copy and pasting the links you want to use if clicking on them directly doesn't work! Let me know if that works for you ☺

[@CajunPride777]

@@metababycow It's probably my phone cause I tried to go on Ali without a link and it did the samething🤷‍♀️. I'll have to try from my laptop..

[@joanboots5381]

Just come across your channel and loved watching what you got, I would love to order off AliExpress but just can’t get my head round it. Any help would really be appreciated. Going to watch some more of you videos now.

[@metababycow]

Hey Joan! Welcome to the channel 🙌🏻 I'm working on a video that is an in-depth how-to guide on using AliExpress, how it works, how to get the best prices etc so sounds like that will be perfect for you! Should be coming in the next few weeks ❤️

[@jey5781]

Hi, I have never used Aliexpress and would like to but worried about extra shipping charges to the UK. Also is there anything I should be aware of when searching the site. Love your videos, thank you for sharing. x

[@metababycow]

Hey Jey! As long as you've plugged in your country on the app it'll tell you the shipping cost if you 'tick' the items in your basket. There's no extra shopping charges at checkout, but it will charge you tax - although when you go to the next screen at checkout it will tell you exactly what the taxes are before you checkout. I think last time I ordered I had £65 of stuff in my basket, and after tax it was just under £80 - the taxes are new but hey, Brexit 🤣 there's no customs charges when they arrive! Or at least I've never had any. So glad you enjoy my videos, thanks for watching and commenting! Xx

[@jey5781]

@@metababycow Thank you so much for your reply, appreciate it. X

[@metababycow]

@@jey5781 Any time ❤️ x

[@carolstrachan4197]

I've been shopping on Ali now for years. Most items are shopping free (I'm in Scotland). Because of Brexit, we now have to pay VAT on anything we order from anywhere! So, the Chinese seller has to register for VAT, collect it from us, the buyer, then send it to Westminster! Never paid a penny tax before Brexit. I'm so angry!

[@jey5781]

@@carolstrachan4197 Is it still worth ordering then as the prices are low but if you factor in the VAT 😡 and the wait for delivery should I just order elsewhere? Thank you Carol x

[@maggiehuelsing5288]

I'd love to see the heart stencil.

[@metababycow]

Your wish is my command Maggie! I'll make sure to use it in a tutorial or process video soon 😘

[@lydialamy2035]

How long does it usually take to receive shipment?

[@metababycow]

It depends, anywhere between 10 days and 3 months 😅 some of the ones in this video I ordered in January, some in March! It's like a surprise every time one arrives I love it 😜

[@lydialamy2035]

@@metababycow oh ok, it's been a while since I ordered and I haven't heard anything lol, I guess I will continue to wait 😀 thanks

[@metababycow]

@@lydialamy2035 have you had a look on the app/in your account to see if there is any tracking? Sometimes you can get an update!

[@lydialamy2035]

@@metababycow on the website I checked but it has no info of what I ordered so was a bit confused

[@metababycow]

@@lydialamy2035 oh that doesn't sound good! The order information should be there under your orders if you're signed in 🤔

[@lyndameredith6499]

I tried to order, but apparently I have ordered before and they wanted me to sign in. Forgot my password and it never took me to a place to create a new one. Can you help. I spent a lot of time putting things in my cart to purchase then couldn’t continue to purchase.

[@metababycow]

Hey Lynda! Sorry to hear you're having trouble. I had a look at the forgot password system and it seems it will send a code to your email address to help you to reset your password. Did that not happen for you? Your other option would be to create a new account using a different email address, if you have one!

[@lyndameredith6499]

How do I buy from this store Aliexpress?

[@metababycow]

Hey Lynda, I've replied to your other comment, I'll keep an eye out for any replies so I can help you if I can ❤️

[@Angelina_Art_Journals]

Do you have a monthly Ali budget?

[@metababycow]

Oh Angela why would you expose me like this 🙈😅 just kidding - I don't have a set monthly budget, I just stop when I think 'that's enough'. It depends on how much stuff I find, but I reckon I can spend anywhere between £40-100 in a month. I know I've spent more during lockdown because I've not exactly been spending much elsewhere 🤣

[@susanmccall8832]

Do you pay extra to have your items tracked?

[@metababycow]

Hi Susan! No I don't - although I usually order a bunch of different items at once, sometimes from the same sellers and sometimes different. Most of my orders come with accurate tracking, and some get bundled together when they reach the UK, but not all of them!
