PTI Celebrating 2013

Today's celebration challenge is for the year 2013.  This was a great year for PTI, and there are many sets released in that year that I own, but none that were highlighted today are in my stash. 

So, I chose this card by Cristina Kowalczyk as inspiration for my post today.  I love the colors she chose, and never would have put them together myself.  The unique way she used the leaf in her design caught me by surprise, and I loved it!

I remember how much I loved Ruby Rose, the set that Cristina used for this card, but never purchased it.  There's a good chance I will order it soon after seeing some of the cards from the designers. I love the different patterns on the flowers and leaves in this set. 

Instead of Ruby Rose, I used a favorite set of mine released in March 2011, Sending You. It has a leaf with a unique style like the one in Ruby Rose.

Here's the card I made:

PTI's Sending You, Double Ended Banner die, Wonderful Words Thank You die

 Thank you for visiting My Happy Place!
