We are, as ever, hosted by the amazing Ms Dunnit over at The Stamping Ground - do go there to find out how to play along.
I'm in a bit of a creative slump at the moment, so although there is a lot of stuff on my desk there isn't really much action, but here it is anyway...
I'm working on my March Calendar Girl - a Spring themed tag - not going brilliantly at the moment - but I shall persevere. Hope your desk is more inspiring than mine - let me know you came and I'll pop over later.
When I get in a slump, I make flowers. My problem right now is I don't have time for all the things I want to do!

Oh it looks like you have lots of goodies on your desk! I hope your creative slump is over soon and that your mojo returns!

I spotted one of my favorite doll stamps there! Love her! I see you are a user of the rolls of double sided tape too, I have a lot of the papers on my desk currently! Can't wait to see the finished piece! Winnie#65
ReplyDeleteHi Maisie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by this week.
I see a lot of possibilities for your tag. I also love the Prima doll stamps
The cleaning and sorting, of Betsy, has helped my creative slump. I've found so many prints that I had forgotten about. I'm sure when I get to the "meat" of cleaning there will be MORE of that list of forgotten things. Yes, it does feel good to purge some of this old stuff. It is kind of "mind cleaning too" LOL
Look at those pretty papers...now if they don't say Springtime, then I don't know what would! Those hearts in the background..are they appliqued onto something? They're very pretty, anyway!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, my hubby would say that I'm 80% Nanny Ogg now....got the boots, scumble, cat etc but thankfully more teeth and fewer wrinkles :-)
Hugs, LLJ 44 xx
I see a super cute tag coming together! Happy WOYWW! Sandy Leigh #34
ReplyDeleteWe all get in those slumps, and we seem to get them at the most inconvenient times. I find cleaning and rearranging things sometimes helps, while other times, just looking through craft books does the trick. I'm sure you'll be over this slump soon. Happy WOYWW from #1.
ReplyDeleteWe all have these slumps... then we have a creative frenzy - 'tis the way of the world :)
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW!

I hate it when Mr Mojo decides to pack up and run away from home too. Seems to happen on a regular basis- pesky little tyke! Like Elizabeth, I go into sort & organise mode, that usually does the trick.Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #41 xx
ReplyDeleteI see many things that inspire me! What your mojo needs is to not look at the desk for a few days. When you go back, your mojo will be there waiting!

Love the in progress look of your desk this week MM.Thanks for stopping by earlier, apologies for the late visit, but I have been catching up with my folks and my Dog since i got back :) I too misplace Mr Mojo from time to time. Cx #79
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting me already!
ReplyDeleteI see lots of bright yellow paper on your desk and one of those lovely prima stamp girls, like those!
Often leave your desk do something else works and mojo comes back or look through crafty blogs, mags, etc for inspiration..... Could you use bits of lots of those yellow paper on the tag background ... Patchwork, ripped and glued, punched etc etc and just work on the background of your tag, or make flowers to add onto the tag etc etc ... Just thoughts, my head bursts with stuff!!!!!

I clean my house when I get stuck or am in a slump. I did notice some beautiful colored papers on your desk.
ReplyDeleteBest thing to do in a creative slump is to have a tidy I find. Know what you mean about the tears and all, I've been grounded for a couple of days with "the flood", I call it my "Noah" monthly and there I was thinking the rainbow had finally come - more fool me. BJ#67
ReplyDeleteWell you've got a lot of good suggestions to help find your mojo. No worries your desk is ready when you are. Thanks for sharing Carole #84
ReplyDeleteWhen you feel like that the best thing is to stop, go away and visit all your desk buddies lol!

Wow that's some amazing fussy cutting! Lots of goodies to play but know feeling of a mojo lapse. So I'm visiting fellow Deskers to be rejuvenated. :) It works for me. Hugs and Happy WOYWW! Nan G #101
ReplyDeleteHi Maisie! Thanks for stopping and leaving all of your great suggestions about journaling. I will have to check out the online videos. I also had to purchase one of those wonderful doll stamps you have been using. My March Tim Tag project is almost finished, but then I had to stop and get paperwork done for the Tax Man. To get me through that and the endless winter I have started watching 'Downton Abbey'. Now I just want to crawl under a cozy throw and pretend they are my family. :) Spring can not come too soon!!
ReplyDeleteI imagine your next post will be filled with the wonderful things made from what we see here. You never disappoint with how you pull it all together. Hugs, Cathy
Hope your mojo comes back soon - mine is always going AWOL. Your desk looks very busy and creative anyway.

I seem to have the same mojo issues...nothing is coming easily like it usually does! Love all the fun things to see on your desk. Good job with the dolly girl...like the pop up pockets a lot! Have a great week and thanks for stopping by my desk! Vickie aka Okienurse #57
ReplyDeleteI hope your creativity bounces back soon.
ReplyDeletePlease forgive my lack of commenting lately, I will try and get back on track soon,
