No.

You stick the Fablon onto the laminate, then draw the design on the Fablon, then using a craft knife, cut away the areas that you want to be etched away, leaving the ground plane areas as the etch resist. Then after etching, you peel off the other pieces of Fablon. So for example, all the black areas of the board which I showed were left in place, and all thee white areas are where the Fablon had been cut away and the board had been etched.

I hope that's clearer.
