This week we’ve been celebrating the release of the new Memory Makers book Oh Baby! And to coincide with the release, we’re having a Mother’s Day giveaway. One lucky reader will receive a goodie box full of scrap supplies PLUS two awesome idea books! (Go to the GIVEAWAY POST for your chance to win.)

Today’s inspirations are brought to you by MyCraftivity members Kristin B. and Robin H. Kristin was inspired by Cindy Tobey’s layout featured in Oh Baby. She was impressed with the scalloped detail and lace trims in Cindy's layout, and decided to give them a whirl on her own page, "Going Green":

Robin’s layout features her oldest son (now approaching 18 years old) when he was just a baby. Robin said she scrapped these baby pics years after he was actually a tot. She’d been going through boxes of photos--most of which predated the digital age--and wanted to incorporate as many of her favorite photos from when her son was a baby. “I liked how the block design on the paper gave the page instant structure,” said Robin. “Also, I'm not a fan of my handwriting, so I was trying some lettering techniques I learned from Scrapbook Lettering.”

How has Mother’s Day inspired you to be crafty? If you don’t have children of your own, think about scrapping with a photo of yourself as a baby…then share your creation with your own mother. What a fun way to flash back on some of your own fun family memories.

Have a great weekend!
