LOL! ... in saying that your talent will be sorely missed, but you, dear girl, so much more so. You crossed my mind today, and on a whim I popped in (I spent a lot of time since your farewell post off-line, tending to some personal life issues) and it made me sad that I missed the opportunity to tell you how much I have admired your work, how much I have admired you, the lovely individual.<br /><br />Wherever the wind takes you now, I hope it's awesome, and brings you joy, and feeds your soul, and allows you to fly as you knew in your heart that you needed to.<br /><br />And that's all I got to say about that. :)<br /><br />JulieJulie Ebersolehttp://papertrufflez.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451858746044611975.post-24828925005689997682013-11-09T08:07:57.370-06:002013-11-09T08:07:57.370-06:00Jess, I never got to know you personally, but have...Jess, I never got to know you personally, but have always loved your work and met you very briefly at CHA 2012. You have a smile that lights up the room and I can tell by your words that you have the most sincere heart. We will miss seeing your beautiful creations, but I am so moved by your words, because I know how true they are. How hard it is to let things go even when we don't want to. But we know it's the right thing. Can't wait to see where you go next and what you do - whatever it may be!

So, as I went to Nichole's blog this month, looking forward to the september release projects, I notice that your name wasn't linked. I went to your blog, and although we've never met or spoken to one another, your creativity and projects have inspired me beyond words. I read this post and started to cry. Thank you for being open and vulnerable with us. I look forward to see glimpses of what God has in store for you in this next chapter of your life. You inspire me to write down my dreams and see what God is planning for me. :) I will definitely miss your monthly PTI projects, but I have no doubt that you will continue to inspire me in other ways. Wishing you nothing but the best always.

I've struggled with the same feeling about my life and whether or not I have time in it for paper crafting. I finally decided that pursuing a "career" in this field was not for me, but even as a hobby, sometimes I wonder if I spend too much time that should be spent on other things. All that to say that I can certainly understand the reasons behind your decision! But I will miss your fabulous creativity and humour! God bless you and whatever you do on this next leg of the journey. :)Rachel Phttp://rachelpcrafts.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451858746044611975.post-21252197643056015162013-09-01T17:29:15.223-05:002013-09-01T17:29:15.223-05:00I love your reason for moving on.

I turned 40 earlier this month and wrote a longish post for my friends and family as I reflected back on where He has brought me from and to what could be ahead. I finished with this... "My life so far has been abundantly full and wonderful. We, as followers of Christ, aren't promised the wonderful, but we are promised the abundant." I am sure it will be the same for you!<br /><br />He will knock your socks off, Jess!
