Happy Mother's Day

I think like a lot of Stampin' Up! demonstrators and customers, I have way too much stamps, inks and papers, so I have been trying to think of ways to utilize my stamps, inks and papers.

I started off by making a baby boy sampler, but this lead to doing one for a baby girl and then one that was non-gender coloured, see previous posts.

As it was getting close to Mother's Day, I decided to make one for the mums.  My mum passed away in 2002, 15 years ago, she was a very independent and spirited woman who lived a hard life so that we could live a better one.

So this sampler is dedicated to my mum. Love you much!
