I've been blogging a fair bit lately about health issues, but I need scrapping help!!!

With all the winter ills we've had, I've lost my scrapping mojo and I need some help finding it again.
Any ideas?

I usually scrap a page pretty quickly, they flow well for me, but I've been working on one layout for two days now and I just can't seem to click with it!
It's frustrating me and I don't know how to get rid of my block!

Any suggestions for ways to get things flowing again?

Doing the monthly challenges usually helps me and sometimes just looking through the gallery gives me that extra umph I need. Good luck.

Look in the gallery for inspiration or in scrapping magazines.

I look in galleries or at sketch websites. Hope it comes back to you!

put that one aside and start fresh. Sometimes just walking away from a stubborn page helps.

If I am not "feeling" they layout I am working on, I will just put it to the side and start something else. Sometimes another layout, sometimes a smaller project like a card. There has been times that I go through two or three projects before it starts to click. Keep at it, your mojo will come back!

I say walk away from that LO for awhile and start on another. Maybe take a look at the challenges here or go to a sketch website like pagemaps.com. Sometimes having the design planned out already takes off a lot of pressure and helps the creativity flow. Good luck! I hope it comes back quickly!!

Thanks ladies!

I might have to just let this one be, it's beating me LOL

When my mojo dies I scraplift or use a templet. If I'm in the middle I just save what I have and close it. Looking at it just makes it more frustrating.

I usually randomly pick a few things and challenge myself to use them.

Yep, challenges help. I always come across photos that I want to scrap and I'll try but they just won't work. If that happens I leave it and look at it again in a day or so to try and get a fresh perspective on it. If that still doesn't work then I'll leave it because for me it'll be the wrong photo with the wrong kit. I find if its right it flows and its easy. Sorry not much help I know!

This is exactly what I do or I'll end up with a page I'm not happy with. No sense forcing the issue. Try something else:)

Challenges are the best for me, and then looking through the gallery at some of the awesome layouts by other cherries is inspirational too.
