Lone Pine Designs: I'm here for you...

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.

I'm here for you...

When I saw this gorgeous inspiration photo for the Cupcake Inspiration challenge this week my first thought was..."wow, they almost look too good to eat!" My second thought was of the perfect stamp in my stash for this challenge...Squeeze till I Squeak by Penny Black.

I must add before I finish this post that I am of the firmest belief that there are NO cupcakes that look too good to eat! Cupcakes are meant to be eaten!

Supplies:-

Stamps - Squeeze till i Squeak by Penny Black and Occasional Quotes by SU

PTI white cardstock

Brilliance ink

SU markers

DP unknown

SU coloured cardstock

Button

Foam Dots

SU ribbon
