Get your Creative Juices Flowing with a 30-Day Creativity Challenge

Crafting is an incredibly rewarding activity that helps to stimulate creativity and imagination. Completing a 30-Day Creativity Challenge can be a great way to hone your skills, expand your creativity, and create something truly unique.

On our private Facebook Group, Scrapper's Edge Paper Crafters, we just kicked off the year with a 30-Day Challenge and the feedback was terrific!  Each day members were prompted with challenges like these:

Here are just a few of the benefits of taking on a 30-Day Creativity Challenge:

• Improved Creativity and Imagination: Crafting projects require you to come up with creative ideas and solutions. Working on a project for 30 days can help you to think more creatively and push yourself to come up with unique ideas.
  
  
• Develop New Crafting Skills: Taking on a 30-day creativity challenge can help you to develop new skills, such as painting, knitting, or sculpting. Working on a project for a longer period of time can help you to master new techniques and create something that you can be proud of.
  
  
• Stress Relief: Crafting can be incredibly relaxing, and it can also help to reduce stress. Working on a long-term project can give you something to focus on and help you to take a break from everyday stressors.
  
  
• Sense of Accomplishment: Completing a 30-day creativity challenge can give you a sense of accomplishment and pride. Seeing your project come to life over the course of the challenge can be incredibly satisfying.
