by Amy Sotolongo (Feb 27, 2013)
Creativity is something that ebbs and flows throughout our lives. There are times when I’m boiling over with ideas. Yet, there are other times when the well turns dry and I can’t seem to get excited to make a thing. When those times hit I use Pinterest to jump-start my creative juices. |

Get Your Scrapper’s Mojo Back!
by Nilsa Gonzalez (Oct 23, 2012)
Has it ever happened to you? You have the urge to scrapbook a page with the pictures you’ve printed and all the new papers you just bought, and suddenly you experience scrapbooker’s block (or as some of us say, lost your mojo) and can’t seem to figure out what to do. |

July 2012 Sketch Challenge
by Christine Ousley (Jul 13, 2012)
Sketches are one of my most favorite scrapbooking tools to use. Yes, I said tool. Why? Because sketches help me create my page as I use them to plan my pages, figure out measurements for papers, and jump-start my creativity. Sketches have quickly become part of a collection that I refer to again and again. |

by Vistaprint (Jun 27, 2012)
Like any personal stationery, the key to success is individuality. Make it your own, and it will become an exciting, eccentric extension of yourself. There are a few materials that are always present when it comes to well-developed stationery, such as note cards, personalized text paper and matching envelopes. However, there are often overlooked possibilities for scrapbooking and stationery that can be the creative enhancements you’re searching for. |

September 2011 Sketch Challenge
by Maegan Hall (Sep 5, 2011)
Why reinvent the wheel? This month I challenged myself once again to use one 12”x12” sketch on a 12”x24” layout and card as well. I’ll be honest, though; I actually started with the 12”x24” layout and shrunk the sketch to 12”x12”. |

by Andrea Steed (Mar 7, 2011)
I always seem to be short on greeting cards when it's time to hand one out. Being a scrapbooker, I always make my own, rather than buy them, so when I run out of cards -- it means I have work to do! |
