... just not feel like scrapping? *sigh* I'm just not feeling it lately. I mean, I haven't lost my mojo... I CAN scrap, I just don't want to. Maybe it's just from the stress I've got IRL... I dunno. Hopefully this passes soon though, eh?

oh this happened to me sooo bad a few months ago. I didn't open PSE for weeks...it was so weird! I just didn't want to sit there and do it at all....

I hope it comes back to you!!!

Been there. Done that. Sometimes I put pressure on myself to scrap every single day. And thats when I tend to get "burned out" and just not want to scrap. I usually take a couple of days off, totally, from scrapping. I tend to be ready to scrap again in no time.

Yep! Been there several times. The scrapping just feels forced and you just don't feel the "urge"! So find a non-scrapping project to do or book to read or something. As with any kind of activity, a good break will do wonders!

Oh yeah! I'm right there with you. I'm just finishing my first LO in 3 weeks. I think I did one something like 2 weeks before that. I go through this every year...it just seems like this year is worse than others. I have faith that it will eventually come back. I think part of my problem is that I tried so hard to do "all" the challenges, that it burned me out. So, I'm staying away from the challenges and just scrapping what & when I feel like it. Luckily for me, I have two of the BEST CT's who put up with my slacker ways :D

I'm there right now. It's not a mojo issue, it's just that I don't feel like scrapping...much rather watch a movie, or clean my house (shutup, I like it), or read. This happens sometimes :) I haven't done a layout in over 3 weeks.

Yes, I hate if and when I get like that! I was in it for a while here last month and the month before.

The only things I've scrapped lately are things I HAVE to do for secret projects. I've barely even done any hybrid stuff this month. :(

You *do* know it's okay to step away from the computer, right?

Um, yeah, been there done that ALOT. I tend to go in spurts...I might scrap 5 or 6 pages in a day...then do one a day...then go a week where everything I try just goes to the trash.

yep...when I feel like that I usually read or do one of my other craft type projects or even do some puzzles

yep, been there, done that, I think I went through that when the SSD took the challenge break last year...no challenges????? then wasn't in the mood at all....course I was going thru some personal stuff too. I do get busy a lot of times during the week where I don't find the time to scrap, but if i had the time to scrap everyday, I don't think I would!

It happens to me, too. I typically spend a few hours every day scrapping. But every few months there will be something else that catches my attention for a week or so, and I barely scrap during that week. Right now it's reading the Twilight saga that pulled me away. The short breaks like this don't bother me. I usually come back from them inspired and excited to scrap again.

yup. It usually lasts until I either find an awesome new kit or I am bored enough to just push through.

Yep! I am there right now. After being stuck on the couch last week with nothing to do but watch TV and scrap I've lost my mojo for the first time in a very long time!

I'm there right now! I juuuuust barely got my SSD assignments done and I'm on another team where I didn't get any assignments done at all. :huh:
I think I'm going to have to step down from that one - *sigh*

I do this lately, I get on the computer and end up playing games or something instead of scrapping.
