Where do you get your inspiration?
 

I am having a huge creative block. What does everyone do to get there creative juices flowing??

Thanks.

If I'm stuck, I turn to templates or scraplifts. They get me out of my rut, into someone else's creativity, and usually help me set off on my own little scrapventure :)

I have no creative juices :thumbdown: so I've been taking advantage of all the template freebies floating around out there on the designers' blogs and whatnot.

what Darcy said!

Scraplifting and templates help me a lot, too.

Other than templates and lifting (which I love!!!), I also like to just browse galleries to get a new "feel" for what I may do. I love artsy magazines and get ideas there, as well as the scrap mags that are out there (Bella, Artisan, DAM, etc) and even paper scrap mags. :)

templates.templates.templates.

Usually if I lose my mojo, I crawl into a hole until it comes back LOL. I haven't really found anything that helps me snap out of it.

But I have had templates and scraplifting suggested to me!

I agree...templates and scraplifting! I love doing the "Spin A Lifts" or on Dani's blog the "Tumbles"....something that makes me go into someone else's gallery...find something and put my own spin on it!

ditto

Templates are awesome for that.

scraplifts do it for me. And sometimes I duplicate the theme of the page as well.

That's the time I always bust into my "favorites" folder and do a little scraplifting. That normally always helps me get some of the mojo back.

I find a new kit sometimes helps me although Ive got less and less to spend on kits lately. I try to make sure what I buy I REALLY love and Id be able to use it for several layouts.

New photos sometimes inspire too. Sometimes no matter how much I love a photo I just cannot scrap it.

If Im trying to start with a photo and not getting anywhere sometimes I will try to go the opposite way and pick out the other stuff and put the photo in last.

Lastly if all else fails a scraplift or template will usually pull me out of a creative slump

I look through my favorites.
