Week In Review: Big News & Back to LIVE | July 4, 2026

Hi friends!

Some weeks quietly change the direction of your life.

This was one of those weeks.

After months of praying, thinking, questioning, and processing, I finally shared the news that I’ll be stepping away from Stampin’ Up.

If I’m being honest, I expected to feel sad. Instead, I feel peaceful. That surprised me.

I realized that sometimes peace is the confirmation you’ve been looking for all along.

This week wasn’t just about writing emails or scheduling blog posts. It was about closing a chapter that has been a huge part of my life for many years—and realizing it’s okay to be excited about what comes next.

Speaking of “what’s next”… 😏

First… thank you. 💙

Your kind messages, emails, texts, and DMs have meant so much to me. I’m keeping my little secret just a bit longer, but I promise you’ll find out on July 16. I can’t wait to share it with all of you!

As we celebrate Independence Day, I’m feeling especially grateful—not just for the holiday, but for the freedom to follow where my heart is leading me creatively.

On the home front, it’s been a pretty quiet week. My foot is still broken (yes, the CT scan confirmed it 😅), and we also discovered a few additional issues. But I’m not going to let that stop me from getting back into the studio this week.

I miss my studio!

The good news?

As I begin this new chapter, here’s my new LIVE schedule:

🗓️ Sunday, July 5, at 6:00 PM CT
🗓️ Wednesday at 6:00 PM CT

I can’t wait to craft with all of you again!

Thank you for walking beside me through every chapter.

I truly can’t wait to share the next one.

Have a wonderful Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙

Until next week,

Jen

P.S. Here’s a little family update! I’m sharing one of my favorite photos with my two granddaughters… and we’re counting down the days until we welcome another baby girl this fall! 🩷 Nana’s heart is getting even fuller.
