Lone Pine Designs: Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge

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.

Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge

The Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge this week is to make a card with no stamped images...just words (a sentiment/verse). I used this encouraging quote from Stampin' Up's Refuge and Strength set..."In those times I can't seem to find God, I rest in the assurance He knows how to find me."

Supplies:-

Stamps - SU Refuge and Strength

PTI white cardstock

SU coloured cardstock

SU markers

K & C paper flowers

Flower punches

Buttons

Nestabilities

SU DSP

SU ribbon

Scallop border punch
