Lone Pine Designs: Give Thanks to God

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.

Give Thanks to God

The Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge this week is to create a card or project that shows your thankfulness to God and the inspiration scripture is Psalm 107:1 "Give thanks to the Lord for He is good; His love endures forever."

I chose to use the verse from Psalm 28:7 "The Lord is my strength and shield; my heart trusts in HIM and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to Him in song."

Supplies:-
Stamps - Something Within by Unity and Music of My Heart and Sing a New Song by Ippity
PTI white cardstock
SU ink
DP unknown
SU coloured cardstock
Foam Dots
Lace
SU ribbon
