Exhausted!

[greenfiend27]

I am exhausted from trying to finish 31 scrapbook pages. I did easy ones first, but as I got towards the end, I was out of my comfort zone for some of the challenges, and I was running out of creative ideas. At least I have a few days off before next month's challenges.

Does anyone else feel like this?

Great accomplishment for you, and from looking at your gallery you worked really hard and did an 'above and beyond' on all the challenges.! I was tired after doing 11, not sure if I will get anymore done or not.

Great job Helen to reach the 31!! I hear you, having experienced the same thing as I got closer to the required number, it was difficult to find challenges that I could manage.....but I did it....one still to upload then done!

Oh Helen, you are definitely not alone! Finishing 31 pages is a huge accomplishment, but it can absolutely leave you feeling creatively drained. I think a lot of us start with the challenges that feel easy or inspiring, and by the time we get to the last few we are stretching those creative muscles a bit more than usual.

The good news is that pushing outside your comfort zone often leads to some really fun pages we might not have created otherwise. But it is also totally normal to feel worn out by the end of it!

Enjoy those few days off and let your creativity recharge a bit. Next month's challenges will be waiting when you are ready, and sometimes a short break is exactly what we need to get the inspiration flowing again.

I knew I had to push it to get to 31 pages (I have one more to do!) so I did some minimalist pages and I am thrilled with them. I may have found a new style!
