Ailsa Black cards are beautiful.

Ailsa Black cards are beautiful and really good quality. The designs are really special in my opinion - I haven't seen one that I don't like. I recently ordered 10 in different designs. One turned out to be unavailable at the time of posting and I received a handwritten note of apology from Ailsa and two other cards in its place. What wonderful service ! 🥰

Hoppity Poppity

I recently bought a framed Hoppity Poppity print to go with my Wonderful Wildcat.
Once again I was so pleased with the beautiful print which arrived promptly and also a selection of Ailsa’s cards.
I would thoroughly recommend Ailsa’s artwork as a treat for yourself or lovely gifts for friends!

I love Ailsa’s work

I love Ailsa’s work. I had received a gift and wanted to pair it with another painting of hers. Website was very easy to use, delivery was quick, item was packaged securely, and I was kept informed throughout the process. Price was also reasonable too. All in all, I’m very pleased.

I am very happy with the service…

I am very happy with the service provided on my order from Ailsa. I live locally and was able to collect my 'No Ball Games' jigsaw without any problem. I was very fortunate to meet the jolly matelot (Alan) from some of her/my paintings together with Jack the sheepdog. I have met Ailsa at Spring Fling in Dumfries and Galloway and hope that I will do again when we are free to hold these events.
