Lone Pine Designs: Single Layered Card

Lone Pine Designs

"Lone Pine Designs" originated when I first moved to America in 2005 from Australia. My mother in Australia called our new home in NH "Lone Pine" as she wanted my new home, which is surrounded by pine trees, to have an Australian name. The Battle of Lone Pine is a very famous successful Australian battle which took place during the Gallipoli war in Turkey in 1915. It was called The Battle of Lone Pine for the solitary pine tree standing in the middle of the battlefield which surprisingly remained standing at the end of the battle. After the tough few months leading up to our arrival here in America and surviving the first year in a new country I felt like that pine tree still standing in the battlefield. It was in 2006 when I started to sell my work on Ebay that I decided that Lone Pine Designs would be the perfect name for this new endeavour in my life.

Single Layered Card

When Ippity announced last Monday that the week's challenge was to make a single layered card I knew it was going to be a challenge...I'm not even sure I've made a single layered card before. After stamping the little corner stamps I drew the lines between the stamps to mirror the lines in the middle stamp. I did add a few little rhinestones to the centre of the flowers for a little sparkle!

Supplies:-

Stamps - Fall For You by Ippity

PTI white cardstock

SU markers

Copic R85

Rhinestones

I like how the corner stamps makes it look like there's more than one layer. Great card!
