I am writing today to let all of you know that Lisa Johnson will be leaving the Papertrey Ink family. She has been with us since the very first day we opened our doors and has made numerous contributions to our company, both as a design team member and stamp designer. We are grateful for all she has done for us over the years and wish her nothing but the very best in her future endeavors within the industry.
I know that many of you were continuously inspired by her unique style and her amazing eye for design. Some of her stamp designs, such as On My Couch and Life, are some of our best-selling sets to date and enjoyed worldwide. She will certainly be missed on several different levels. I hope you will join me in wishing her a fond farewell.
KnitterPam says
Oh, bummer, I just discovered Lisa through your website and her cards are amazing. I hope she is ok and that she will continue to blog.
Jill Norwood says
Oh my goodness! Lisa you will be missed but I wish you the very best on your life’s journey and pray that it is full of blessings as you begin a new direction. Thanks for all of the inspiration that you have provided and I hope that your blog will continue so that we can still see your beautiful design style and keep in touch via the e-waves! God Bless!

OH, no. I was privileged to meet Lisa last year at Stamp-A-Faire and she quickly became my favorite. She was so genuinely nice to everyone and there were a lot of ladies there that day! I love her style, her positive energy and her ideas. I will miss her terribly but wish her well in whatever avenue her life is taking her.
Joyce says
Oh no, I pray her health issues quickly heal so she can get back to enjoying life.

Anne Hartschlag says
One of the most inspirational things I have ever read was Lisa’s blog after going to Katie’s funeral. As a matter of fact it impressed me so much that I made a copy of it and read through it often. Lisa I was not aware of any health problems but be assured that I will pray for you and your little family. I know your faith is strong and He will see you through whatever. I hate to see you go but you will always be an inspiration to me.
Jill says
Lisa, you will be very missed by me–your style in designing both cards and stamps for PTI spoke to my mojo, and I will miss that. I wish you and your family the very best in the future, and can’t wait to see what you do with other companies’ stamps! God bless.
Sandy Kay says
Lisa, you will be greatly missed! I have “known” you long before PTI! I remember how excited I was when I saw that you had joined PTI! I hope you can eventually get back to blogging and sharing your amazing talent! In the meantime, best wishes and hugs to you as you continue your healing journey!

I remember sitting at the nail salon about two years ago and happening upon Poppy Paperie. I was IN LOVE! From there I discovered Papertrey Ink and I discovered a new world of stamping! Lisa is totally responsible for my love of Papertrey Ink and I will definitely miss her creativity!

Most importantly, I hope your health problems improve. I have enjoyed your designs & creations as long as I have been following pti. On the couch is still one of my most used sets (I was getting ready to use it to make a card for a coworker recovering from knee surgery). Best wishes always for you and your family. Keep the faith & God bless. You will be missed
