PTI WCMD challenge for Mexico! challenge #2

Here is my Mexico inspired card.  Nichole issued the challenge to create a card inspired by the colours of Mexico.  I have been there several times, and the colours are in abundance, but I chose a simpler route, some tiles that I made from some PTI dp that I used for the center of my tile.  I layered the little square of dp onto some cs that I had inked the PTI fancy flourish stamp set on.  I glazed the 3 tiles, so that they would look like ceramic.  I stamped really rust onto green and really rust onto the really rust card base.  The dreams copper plate signifies my dreams of visiting Mexico again.  Thanks for taking a peek,
