I have a simple card to share with you today. I have not been feeling very creative lately and honestly it is frustrating. I will try again tomorrow and hope to have lots of new things to share with you soon.
Isn't this a great background? It is the Hardwood stamp and it is so handsome, perfect for a masculine card.
What is your cure for the lack of creativity blues? I would love to know. Leave me a comment and share what gets you out of a creative slump.
I was cleaning up my craft table and found a stash of DSP pockets. These must have been leftover from when I made this card. I still had my cute For the Birds set out and I think they are just made for each other. Here's a close up of the little birds. I…

I just cannot stop using this sweet set, For the Birds. It is an easy one to color and I think the images are adorable. I am working on using Marina Mist more. Not sure what it is but it is a color I tend to avoid. Strange right? When I do use…

This sweet stamp set, For the Birds was one of the first sets I knew I had to have. Those little birds and all those sayings just spoke to me. I felt like I needed a set that was fun and easy to color and could be used for lots of different occasions….
Your creative juices will get juicy again… it’s in your blood. When I am feeling low, I take Vitamin B and find a card to copy. I can’t help but put my own twist on it, and it usually ends up looking totally different 🙂
Thanks Kit Marie! Great suggestions. I will give it a try and hopefully you will see something new posted soon!
I have to agree with Kit Marie, creative juices are definitely embedded in your DNA, you’ll get it back. But it can be so frustrating. The usuals: SCS gallery, Pinterest, come to your blog for ideas, look through papercraft magazines, even look through prior years of SU catalogs. Sometimes an unrelated distraction to entertain my mind is just the ticket. Love this card, thanks for sharing all you do!
Thanks Laura! Lots of good suggestions. I especially like the unrelated distraction concept!
these long cold winter days don’t do much for inspiration BUT today.. SUNSHINE GALOR, and then daylight savings get me thinking to SPRING a much needed jolt and looking for new card IDEAS and finding your site PERKS ME UP
Thanks Bobbie! Yes, longer days and hopefully more sunshine (soon) will definitely help!
