Motivation Needed...

How do you stay motivated to scrap layouts each month...I've been struggling with layouts this month...I don't know why I just don't feel like scrapping...Usually I do the challenges here and that helps me but this month I just can't get going...Any suggestions...
 
You... know, I'm having the same problem! I sit down to scrap and just sit there... waiting... waiting for inspiration to hit... I'll be watching this thread to see what others say... :)
 
I went through that I just kept scrapping. I had that happen this month and I scrapped a so so layout almost to get it out of my system. From then on, the LOs slowly improved. I just kind of push through.
 
Everyone deals with slumps differently, but maybe try slowing your pace a bit for awhile and see what happens???? Don't feel pressure to do challenges. I don't know. :unsure:
 
When I'm in a slump, the best thing I've found is to walk away. Sometimes it takes a day, sometimes a couple of weeks. I never enjoyed any of the LOs I've created by forcing them. Some people get inspiration by lifting others, or templates, but neither of those things really worked for me. I hope you get your mojo back soon!
 
If I'm really struggling to create layouts, I just walk away for a bit. Forcing it never works for me. I go read a book, or take new photos. Sometimes new photos get me really excited to scrap again.
 
Im onw of those that just walks away as well....sometimes for me I go and paper scrap and seemto get my inspiration back....
 
sometimes it depends on the gallery in the challenge...sometimes those can be hard if they are not only out of my comfort level...but in a whole new dimension that I am not interested in scrapping...so I rarely scrap the challenges in order...sometimes a fun one (i.e. cookie) will get me moving and I can go back and get an older one done...
