SCS Color Challenge and MIM for PTI

Papertrey has a technique on the Make It Monday video today, brayering an impression plate.  I wanted to try this, but rather then brayering it, I used direct to paper with my ink pad.

Same effect, hopefully works for PTI.  On the other hand [challenge], the colors Mary chose this week are Razzelberry, Indio Blue and Baja Breeze.  I used the Baja Breeze on my impressed piece (I don't have that paper color), and used ribbon I had, which was close to Indio Blue (which, I also do not have) So, I guess overall I stretched both challenges a tad bit, but the card works for me! :)  I used Spellbinders Flower Silhouette Impressibilities, along with PTI's Butterfly Dreams (with die) and Think Big Favorites #1.
Thanks for stopping by~

Gorgeous card! I am going to have to try your technique with some distress inks. They are so easy to use doing direct to paper.
