It depends partly on the purpose of your mockup. Initial proof of concept with target users? Usability test? Sales pitch to a client? Paper and pencil, Inkscape, OpenOffice Draw, OpenOffice Impress, HTML, GIMP, and Glade (and probably lots of other things inbetween) can all be used to make perfectly good mockups for various purposes, depending on the fidelity and functionality you require.
