"You show me yours, I'll show you mine" - My first card!
 

Hi everyone,

Not sure if this has been done before, but I thought this might be fun! Post your first card you made and include a brief description about it. Here's mine:

My first card was a sympathy card. It took me all night to make it where I was determined to come up with an idea on my own! (Dec 05)

And here's my most recent upload, March 06:

looks familiar huh?!? tee hee
 

hahah should i show mine?!?

well here goes! tee heee

This isn't the first card I made, but it is the very first card I ever uploaded to SCS. I remember how excited I was that it got a few comments![IMG]//www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/images/icons/icon11.gif[/IMG] Now I think it's very ordinary and uninspired, but I guess we all had to start somewhere. LOL!

Everybody's cards are way cute!! Happy Heart, you are my stampin' idol!! That card was darling!

I was already stamping for a long time before I started uploading, but here's my first upload. http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...0&ppuser=49000 Now I look at it and see that it needs some kind of background stamp. :)

This was one of my first uploads to SCS. I started stamping shortly before I made this. I actually made it in 2003, but when we had a super wonderful additional of server space (seriously!) I lost a bunch of my first uploads. This was my second stamp set. My first was Many Moos.

I am off to look at everyone's *first* ;)

This is a fun thread! Here is my first card that I uploaded onto SCS back in January 2005:

This is my most recent upload (March 2006):

http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...00&ppuser=9420

Looking at my first card I posted here a long time ago I don't think I have improved much! (Except for my love of background stamps) . . . I did see a card I had made for my MIL a few years back and it was horrible . . . I should've snatched it off her table for posterity!

I didn't start making cards until a couple years ago, when I started I was a strict scrapbooker.

What a fun idea! Wish I still had mine. I made my first card 13 years ago.

Extreme Makeover
 

Last November VSN one of the challenges was to find one of your first cards, then make a newer version. So here is the one I had made in 2002, which I thought was very cute...
Invitation - Old Style
And here is the updated version...
Invitation - New Style
Boy what a difference Splitcoast has made for me!!!

For years, I just made cards and sent them. I started stamping in 1998, but got into it slowly.

Anyway, I finally got a scanner, apparently, in 2002. I'm not sure when I made this, but it got scanned in late 2002. :)

Oh wow....what fun is it to reminisce...the very first card I had courage to post. Here it is:

http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...00&ppuser=9379

Please don't be confused by it being posted under a different gallery. It's really supposed to be under my gallery. I believe it's just a glitch.:rolleyes:

And the very first card I made was before I knew anything about SU...here it is:

wow you blew my socks off with the updated version!

I don't think I have used this set since I made this card....fun thread...


http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...0&ppuser=21777

and here is my most recent...

http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...0&ppuser=21777

I dug through my samples and found this delight! I was so proud of my stamping early on that I used to make gift sets. My MIL sent this one back to me. Where was the color wheel when I needed it, lol!

http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...244762&cat=561

This is a card I made last night for the color challenge:

http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...0&ppuser=24689

LOL, on my best day, I am not that good. :)


This was one of my first ones, lol, man, wehen I posted this I thought I was the cat's pajamas!!!!! Yikes!!!

I was a lurker for a long time before I finally posted my first card...

I really enjoy the variety that is to be found around here!

Here is mine from Dec 1995. I had just started stamping after attending a DOTS party. I thought I was pretty clever adding the raffia bow.

Great thread! Here is one of my first...

Dino-Mite!

Here's one of my most recent (I think I've come a long way...)

Daisy Duo

Thanks for starting this thread...it's fun looking through...

It was over a year ago when I posted my first upload. I had been stamping for maybe 6 months by then, and had started lurking here and finally posted something!

Back then I didn't use all SU! paper either, but now I usually do!
http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...0&ppuser=28105

These are all so great! I haven't posted any cards yet, but when I get back from getting the kids from school, I'm going to start! Then I'll come back & post a link!

Tricia

Well, I can't play ~I've only been stamping since just after Xmas so I'm still in the newbie category. I do have a small, pathetic little gallery which is nothing compared to all your lovely cards!!!!

It's encouraging to know I *WILL* get better, lol!!

Here is a link to my first card:

//www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=82351&cat=500&ppuser=29188

I still haven't gotten an embossing buddy to help with those stray EP speckles!

doin' good kid!
 

Wow! I really like your cards NOW! I'm thinking that you may be tooooo critical of your own work. You're doin' good kid!

Here it is! :) I uploaded it just for this thread!

//www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=245408&cat=500&ppuser=40450

And, since everyone else is doing it, here's my most recent upload today: //www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=244945&cat=500&ppuser=40450

It's amazing how much everyone's style has changed since the beginning, eh?!

I just looked at your gallery and WOW!!! You sure do make some great cards. Keep on stampin'.

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for playing along, this is fun!!! It's amazing how much we've all improved...I owe that to SCS, that's for sure! The color combos and layouts are fantastic....I'm hanging onto this thread!!! :)
