You may have already seen Nichole’s post about the changes taking place at Papertrey Ink.
If you have not I suggest you read it, to be informed ๐
Changes are coming.
Many roles are changing. Lynn has been given a new duty within Papertrey, as has Jennifer. Details on Nichole’s blog.
We are welcoming 3 new, and amazing designers! Dawn McVey, Michelle Wooderson and Niki Estes. BIG WELCOME to them. They are perfect additions.
Taylor is saying goodbye. With that change I have been promoted to a Senior Designer! I am so excited about this new venture. This position offer’s possibilities that I have worked so hard for !! There is just SO MUCH talent out there, I am in awe to be where I am today. So grateful for every opportunity I have been graced with.
I cannot wait to start this new venture.
This is however bittersweet. I have to bid farewell to many of my design teams I am currently on, in order to fulfill my obligations. I guess we can’t really do it all. In the end I had to do what I needed to so I can fulfill my dreams.
I have notified those I have to say goodbye to. It was not easy, as I have had the privilege of working for the best of the best! Each and every company was full of the most wonderful and amazing people. I will miss being on their “team”, but it is not goodbye to their products!! We all know how much I love my stamps, and new goodies!!!
I want to thank each and every person I have worked for & with! I have learned and grown so much. I also want to thank Nichole, Jane, Julie & Rick-ย for believing in me :D, and my fellow PTI DT members who are truly so supportive.
I want to thank all of you who come and visit me here!! For the kind words and support. Now don’t worry! I am not dropping everything! LOL! You will still be able to come and see fresh new eye candy, and ideas galore ๐ All the same sort of things you have in the past-I just won’t be as crazy around release times.
I may even have more TIME! You know what that means…………….more stamping ๐
Change is so hard sometimes-but you can’t not go forward because you are afraid of what you can’t see, or don’t know. How can you growย and learn if you stay in one place? In what is familiar? What is worse than change, is regret. Regret that your didn’t do something. I know I don’t want to regret anything in life ๐ So I embrace these amazing changes and look forward to the road ahead.
Thank you again.

Congrats!
Wahoo, Girlfriend!!! Change is GOOD! Congrats on the promotion within PTI and while moving on is tough in many ways (I know that the other teams/companies will miss you in some ways… they will still have you using their products, we know ;^)*
Moving on also means growth… and re-energizing for you… and just plain making room for new things for YOU and for OTHER people —
so all of us out here reading can be thinking, “wow… does that mean there may be room for newbies with some great companies out there???” Grin… or is that too forward to think???
At any rate — YOU ROCK and I am totally thrilled for you — and YES — though I know you like to be busy… it will be nice that you are not going soooooo nuts at release times ;^)*
Yay! Lauren’s a Senior! Now don’t you be too hard on the Freshman, k? I’m so happy for you. I know you’ll miss the other DTs, but you’re doing something you really love and REALLY want to do. What could be better than that?!
Congratulations!!!
Woo hoo!! Congrats Lauren!! Definitely well deserved!!
Congratulations and best wishes on your moving forward to new adventures. Your creations are amazing. Thanks for sharing with us
