Try to think of new materials to use and change the way scrapbooking is done!

usually, if i start to browse for supplies and
shop, i get inspired, but most of all, i'd just
find a fave photo & go from there i HTH

get yourself to think about your supplies differently.
what I do is go to some sort of color site or blog and choose a color combo I like. Then I go through all of my supplies and pull out whatever I have that matches the colors. I end up putting together combos of products that I would have never thought of using together, I look through my whole stash finding things I forgot I had, and I have a ton of fun. After that, the page just seems to come together rather well. And, I go through stages where I'll focus on color combos, then on sketches, then on blog inspiration, then on digi inspiration, then on using tons of ribbon or tons of rubons because sometimes I just gotta use up some product! ha! I hope this is a short phase for you!

Definitely trying to do some challenges helps out for me. Or just finding some new techniques to try.

I vote for going into the gallery, finding a layout that takes your breath away and lifting it - especially if it is not "your style". You can also come over to the dark side... I'm biscraptual. (((hugs)))

Ditto, I'll move the office around, transfer the phones to our other terminal and you can scrap some of my photos. Relax on our huge porch, breath fresh air, introduce you to Peyton and he'll love the scratches and a treat of a range cube from your hand. Either Jenna's farm or our ranch will certainly refresh the mind!
Jenna, I want to learn to drive a combine!!!!
