I admit, I am constantly on the lookout for great scrapbook pages that make me say - "I want to make a page like that." For years, 2 Peas in a Bucket (and for awhile Scrap in Style and Studio Calico) AND Creating Keepsakes magazine were my main sources of inspiration. Now, it's primarily Pinterest, which is totally dependent on the pinners I follow pinning pages and technique links that I like. So where do you go for inspiration? Or maybe you don't go anywhere because you are the inspiration - others are looking for your pages. Feel free to link me to any great sites you frequent.

They are interspersed among other craft projects but I have so many awesome, amazing layouts pinned to my "So Crafty" board on Pinterest that when I take time to look through it, I want to run and make a page. I have collected them over time and it makes me feel happy to know I can always go there to be inspired. Here it is if you wanna take a peek. You might not like the same styles of pages I like but there's a pretty good variety of clean, colorful pages if you keep scrolling.  |

I check on Pinterest, and I like looking through Jot magazine... If I'm looking for a particular idea I'll search ACOT or scrapbooking.com's galleries... Right now though, I get most of my energy and ideas from YouTube... I can't think of all the ones I subscribe to, but yesterday I watched a video by Mercy Tiera (she also has a blog), and one by Irit Landgraf (sp?)... I don't really have the same style as them but they're both so engaging for me - I watch them creating and I want to join in... I've also started searching YouTube for specific manufacturers or products to see what comes up... Yesterday I searched for a Tim Holtz product and a bunch of videos came up... I didn't scraplift any of the projects, but it was inspiring to see how others use the product, hear them talk about why they made their choices, what other products they used, etc...

I utilize Pinterest and my favorite manufacturer & bloggers' sites for my inspiration. I need to add Jot Magazine to my scroll list. I have their site saved to my favorites.

I mostly use Pinterest. When I have time I look for new boards. I'll search for scrapbook, mini albums, two page layouts, embellishments, scrapbook techniques, and any other key terms used in scrapbooking. Also, when I repin something and the box pops up that says 'Also on' I click on that board and check it out.

Pinterest. I'll follow the pin down to the blog the pin came from and take a look at the other blog entries to see if there is anything else I like.

Scrapbook.com has a huge gallery with a great search feature, and I have gotten many good ideas from there over the years.

Studio Calico is a great source of inspiration for me. I belong to NicoleJones911 (YouTuber) Facebook group and I get incredibly inspired by those ladies; I am a simple scrapbooker so it's great getting inspired by "real scrapbookers".

I check out Studio Calico as many scappers there use the same type of supplies I do. Otherwise it's indie fashion magazines and graphic design books

Studio Calico is my fave gallery right now. But I also follow a bunch of "name" scrappers' blogs on Bloglovin. My favorites are Paige Evans (I checked her google gallery today - OMG, I was seriously oohing and aahing at her amazingness), Ali Edwards, Stephanie Bryan, Amy Tan, Elizabeth Kartchner, the OA blog, the AC blog and Shimelle. I have hundreds of images saved to a folder on my hard drive. And maybe once a week, Pinterest, of course. Plenty out there.

Pinterest is my main source after 2Peas closed. It seemed like the quantity of layouts really rose this summer on there, so it's great! I try to get specific in my searches descriptions. Once I learned how to really navigate it better, I seem to find a lot I like. In fact, I need to start separating my boards to help me find based on category from my own pins!
