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!

Baby Sampler

On a roll, I combined some of the boy and girl stamps and used some generic ones and came up with a sampler which is non gender specific.

Baby Girl Sampler

Here's another sampler, but this time for a baby girl.

Baby Boy Sampler

After I made some baby cards for my friend, I got to thinking I probably could so a sampler or collage, after seeing all the wonderful baby inspired cards on Pinterest, so I set to work and created this sampler for a Baby Boy. This is a fantastic way to use up designer paper and card stock which I have excess of. It's also a great way to make use of those stamp sets which I have in abundance but hardly use.
