My daughter-in-law and I are looking at your card and we love this technique but we are not sure how you did it. Could you explain how you made the background using the rubber cement?

(1) Drizzle rubber cement in desired pattern on glossy c.s. Let it dry completely. This may take hours, depending on how thick it is.
(2) When dry, brayer ink over the c.s.
(3) Gently rub off the rubber cement. The c.s. will be white wherever the rubber cement was. For a varation, you can color the c.s. first, drizzle the rubber cement, and then brayer over that with a DARKER color. When you rub off the rubber cement, the lines will be the lighter color.
