I get design-block all of the time, esp. when I have a lot of projects & have little sleep.
Try one (or all) of these:
+ Play favorite tunes
+ Look at design books,
but NOT of the media
you're designing for
+ Take a break & do
something non-design
related
+ Keep a notepad by your
bed to jot down ideas
+ Umm...consume some
"recreational goods";-)

I'm not a great designer so everything below is bound to be crap...
I work with content/copy only. Black text on a white background. Then I start arranging that in 2, 3 or 4 different layouts. After looking at that for a while things start occuring to me.
It's a lot better when I just have an overall vision, but the projects don't always afford us that luxury.
Good luck!

i read an artist's bio about how, when he's in a similar situation, he drop all design related things and does everyday shit. Then subconsiously comes up with a good idea.
Run the project by me. I'll give you a great idea. I myself am on a design roll.
