    Moving forward at a sprint has been my life these past last 2 years. Living in another country and finding a world open to me like never before has me grasping at the root of my memory keeping. I find myself wanting to take huge steps back and focus on my own memories I am making with my family, make peace with life again.

    Although I am not retiring from design, I am leaving TLP effective May 14th. I am moving some of products to my website as I did before. This means the products that will be “Gone Forever” are on sale for 70%OFF!

    What does this mean for Etc products that are not retiring?

    You will find all products live on my website May 15th. I will be adding products monthly, but not on any set schedule. This means be sure to signed up for my newsletter so you don’t miss anything as we navigate new ways to create, design and share!

    Come join us in the FB Group where we will be posting challenges and sharing our love of memory keeping. Follow us on social media such a Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest where we will share pages, projects and more!

    I want to thank everyone that has been a part of my time here at TLP. This was the first time I felt I was taken serious as a designer, Laura helped that happen. The designers here are so incredibly creative and many of them have become some of my closest friends ... family❤️

    A big (hug) of thanks to the creative team, both TLP and Etc, otherwise known as the best cheerleaders in this industry. You’ve made my designs shine in ways I never knew possible.

    Most of all, thank you memory keepers for supporting my designs, and allowing them to help you create records of your memories in the most prettiest of ways. I hope you continue to support me as I transition my career and become primarily a memory keeper again. I can’t wait to share my albums again.

    See you on the other side.

    D~❤️

    Thank you...and yes, it’s funny right? I liked the sputter out the back. Completely how I feel most days since the big “52” this April. Lol

    :bkYou have been an inspiration...I'm certain that will continue. While you will be gone from TLP, surely you will not be forgotten. I wish you all of the very best as you return to the precious art of memory keeping. See you in the next chapter...

    I have been a fan of your designs for many years. I often turn to your designs when I scrap pages of my oldest daughter. Your designs and her personality go together like butter on toast. Perfectly:) Best wishes as you continue forward and take time to enjoy your family and memory keeping!

    While you're going to be missed as a designer here at TLP, it's wonderful that you're making a decision that works for you and your family. Best wishes as you move forward!

    Aw! I'm glad to hear you won't be retiring! Your products have really helped me get out of my safe creative box and start exploring other styles and I appreciate that SO MUCH! We'll miss you here, but I'll be keeping track of you! (not in a creepy way or anything... lol!) Sounds like you are taking steps to not miss a moment of your life, and that's amazing. <3

    Don't go! I use your products on nearly every page I make! :hissy
    And I barely have time to scrap at the TLP, so I don't scrap anywhere else. :(

    I was introduced to your products when I was a CT member for another designer and you two did a collab. Kashmir has been one of my favorite kits for a LONG time.

    Good luck in your future endeavors!
