When the Mojo is MIA: A Real Talk CMW Moment

Tonight, the apartment was tidy. The dog fed. The pillows fluffed. I even treated myself to a little post-work nap—one of those naps that hits harder than expected and leaves you questioning what day it is. But once I got my bearings, I thought: Perfect! It’s time to create!

Armed with the latest Color Me Whimsy challenge colors, the Inked & Tiled stamp set, and coordinating DSP, I sat down at my craft table… and nothing happened. Zero. Zilch. The Pinterest search was strong. My brain? Not so much.

So what did I do? I took a picture of my supplies.


Yup. That was the win for tonight. I showed up. I still love the challenge colors and the stamp set. I’m just not feeling the creative spark right this minute—and that’s okay. It’s all part of the process.

If you’ve ever hit a creative wall (or five), I see you. This is your reminder that not every craft session has to produce a masterpiece. Sometimes, the magic starts with just sitting down and giving yourself the grace to not force it.

💬 Have you ever sat down to create and the mojo just left the building? Drop a comment and let me know your favorite “unstuck” trick. Bonus points if it includes snacks.

Until next time,

Be Whimsy, Add Bling!
