feel like puking at the thought of making another layout? Or even at the idea of looking at a new kit. I still haven't even gotten all of my iNSD purchases downloaded. {ugh}

I worked on my project life spread for last week the other night, and it took me an hour an a half to do ONE 4x6 pocket. And it's not anything impressive either.

It's like when you eat the entire bag of sugar cookies with cream cheese icing and then puke them up that night...it takes a loooong time before you can eat them again. That's how I'm feeling about scrapping. :blink: (Not that I've ever eaten an entire bag of sugar cookies with cream cheese icing or anything...)
 
I'm the opposite right now. I've been in a creative lull for the past few weeks, so after iNSD and clearing out a huge chunk of my WL I'm taking advantage of finally feeling creative again... Overwhelmed, but creative.
 
LOL Kellie.
I havent scrapped since Sunday, but I have a gift certificate to spend and i was just about to pop into the shop and browse my wish list to see what was left on there to buy!
 
I have all of my purchases from the shops downloaded but thats about it.. they are still sitting in my download folder waiting to be organized, keyworded and moved to their 'home'. Uhhh, I will get to it at some point in the next few days I suppose. I think. Maybe. Maybe not.
 
LOL Kellie. You always make me laugh with your quirky way of saying things. I have totally done that so I know what you mean (I still don't want to eat that particular cheese again) and I also had a bit of an overdose on scrapping last week. Yesterday I didn't feel like scrapping at all and I watched a couple of the Desperate Housewives dvds I brought home from the library. Today I was suddenly so inspired by a particular photo that it made me want to scrap again first thing in the morning. It'll come back. Just take a small break! :)

Maybe that's what I need, a good photo. {sigh} You guys with all your mojo make me jealous.
 
It's been taking me a ton longer to do a layout too... but I don't think it's because I'm burnt out or lost mojo... just have lots of distractions going on LOL
 
I feel your pain! It's taking me forever to scrap this week. I've just finished my second page for the week, and it's already Thursday. I normally have about 10 pages done by this stage :D
 
I missed most of iNSD so I am looking forward to doing a bit of scrapping this week. I have to play with what I bought on the weekend too!
 
I didn't buy as much as I usually do, and I've been so busy, and this week, so sick! I'm missing scrapping lol. I need a day to sit and just scrap!! I agree about the right photo, though! When I get into a funk and aren't taking many photos, I lose my mojo, too!
 
I've been in a scrapping funk of sorts for the last few weeks! it's driving me batty :( I LOVE the new stuff that's come out and I want to play with them all--but I stare at my blank PS canvas and want to bang my head against my keyboard.
 
i haven't even unzipped the things i've bought or figured out why i bought them lol. everytime i think i'll start using some of it. something else comes up for a team that i should work on! so i'm putting all the stuff ina folder called bought not used. and hop that will motivate me to play!
 
*lol* Oh, how I love you so, Kellie.

I started my new job this week so I have had so little time to scrap that I'm itching to do that this weekend. I think I've done 2 pages this week (when I usually do 2 a night). Having to go to bed at 11 or 12 is totally wrong.

I've already told Hubs that what I want for Mothers' Day is to sleep in with no little gurls crawling in and kicking me in the head, but maybe I will add that I want some alone time with the computer, too. :p
 
I've had a long break because of the break up and moving and now house hunting,and although I didn't have time to scrap during the iNSD weekend, I've been scrapping this week and it feels goood :p

Hope your mojo comes back soon :)
 
Life in general has been so busy the last month or 2 that by the time I sit down to scrap, I'm too tired to do more than a bit of a layout. My usual 2-3 layouts a week has turned into 1, maybe 2. I've had a few days when I ignored everything else I should be doing for a few hours and scrapped during the day, which has been the only way I've scrapped anything I like lately. I *think* things will get back to normal after today, but we'll see. Of course, school ends in about a month, and then it will be back to crazy here.

Yep, this is me too. Partly I think it's because I have so much to do this week, and I get a little overwhelmed about where to start, so I procrastinate and do nothing.
 
I go in spurts. I'll do like 5 layouts in a day and then none for a week. My mojo is either here or not -- there's really no in-between for me. :)
 
This is me, too. I took a "sick" day from work. I had a doctor's appointment this morning for a sore foot, but was home by noon today. I fully expected to get a ton of scrapping done. Instead, I took a two hour nap. It was amazing!
 
Because of my work schedule, I can't scrap a whole lot during the week, so by the weekend I am ready to get a few layouts done. I had the best time at all the iNSD events and only felt a bit of overload on Saturday because I forgot to eat and ended up with a headache. Of course, unlike a lot of you, I didn't have any "work" to do for the event, I just got to play and have fun. My son said I was like a kid in a candy store and I had to chuckle and tell him he was right on the money. But, right now, a nap does sound amazing! :D
 
I got all of my goodies downloaded and between Monday last week and Monday this week, I did 23 LO's:blink: not even sure how I managed all of those!!!! but yeah, my creative juices just don't seem to be there, but if I have a new kit that can work with my P365 or some cruise pics, then I am good!
