Lone Pine Designs: LOVE

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 not sure where the last couple of months have gone and I know I'm a little late for showing a Valentine's Day card but here it is...

I'm starting to get back into my craft room after a busy couple of months...thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:- DCWV Embossed card, SU ink, ColorBox Chalk, SU marker, SU coloured cardstock, Fiskar paper edgers and foam dots.

Christy, this is so beautiful! Love the way you did the lettering on here. Just gorgeous.
Either save it for next Valentine's Day or just give it to someone you love! It's so lovely.
Glad you're back.
