Good morning...
I have a card to share which uses the technique from this weeks' Make It Monday at PTI
The technique is Watercolour resist using rubber cement
I have been unable to obtain rubber cement here in the UK but I have an art masking fluid which is a similar thing and I've used it before on projects... So here's my card
It's sort of like butterflies rising from the sea... The sunshine here has me thinking of the beach - hence the colours Lol!
I stuck to a white CS for the base and used Gansai Tambi paint... I love that colour
The butterflies are from PTI as is the sentiment and die... I also used PTI's Classic Craft ink to stamp the sentiment then went over it again in Versamark and heat embossed it with clear E/B. The antenna are cut from another die - I smooshed the PTI ink pad over a scrap of CS and again added Versamark and heat embossed it before cutting the antenne
It's a fun technique... Give it a try
Have a beautiful day

Forgot to say the photo looks great too!
So pretty and dreamy...wish I were there...lovely colors! We are to have a BIG winter storm here today/tomorrow, no daffodils for us...lots of wind, snow ice...ugh...but I will be here in my warm and cozy craft room, ignoring the outside (well at least if the power stays on..lol)....thanks for all your kind words!
Gorgeous blue background and lovely butterflies, Ros! You achieved a wonderful effect with the technique for your card...so pretty!!!
I love the blue, nice design! I am also thinking what can I use to replace the rubber cement as well!
I really need to try the Gansai Tambi paint... that color is gorgeous. I know it's your fave:) Beautiful design; I love the way you added the sentiment. A card like this is a gift of its own!

Beautiful water color look, Ros, again love the color! Have a wonderful Thursday! Somehow I must get it in gear and find more time!!!!
Oh my goodness--absolutely gorgeous, Ros! I do have Rubber Cement that I couldn't get to work as masking fluid. Hoping my take on the video turns out 1/2 as good as yours! LOVE the blue color & your design!
Never heard of the technique but the result is stunning what amazing texture and the colours are sensational.
