See How I've Changed!

This is going to be fun. There She Goes is kicking off their May new releases and with each release, Jessica posts a challenge. Usually you have to stamp something. This month her challenge is to See How We've Grown. So here you go, this is the first card I ever uploaded to an online gallery. I had been stamping for a few years prior to discovering SCS, so this isn't the first card I ever stamped ( I do have that one, I show it off at my workshops when I demo. My girls get a kick out of it!) but the first card I shared on a public site.
I know, the card isn't so bad (I actually still like it, but it was also a CASE from an SU mini) BUT the photograph-YUCK! I have learned so much along the way. LOL! Okay, I decided to show you the first card I ever made. Let me go get it and I'll be back...

....okay, here it is. I think I had too much fun with that color spritzer tool! LOL! So now the next part of the Challenge is to share one of our FAVORITE cards we have made. This is actually hard for me. I was just glancing through my gallery and there are lots of cards I love, all for different reasons. So here are two more recent cards that are definitely FAVES of mine.

and this one , guess I'm still liking chalks since I used them on this card. LOL!


So, go take a walk down your own memory lane. See where you started and look how far you've come! Thank goodness we all learn and grow along the way! Hugs, Lisa

    This is so fun to see! I long ago got rid of the first card I made, but I'll have to see how far back I can go.

    OMG Lisa, that challenge is a riot! I think I just might play along, although my first uploaded card is way way worse than either of yours! Your first card is very nice- but it does show how important good photography is, doesn't it?! You know what else would be fun... to try to remake your very first card to improve it to your current standards! OK, that's my challenge to you... and I'll do the same (tomorrow). You too Becky!

    haha I don't know if I am brave enough to go through my old pictures!! I know I threw out a lot of my earlier cards- what a fun idea though I will have to see if I can brave it out! :)

    Gosh, what a chuckle! My first card is looooong gone! I do remember it, though....definitely a CAS one! I love your two new favorite ones, in fact, I think I am going to go case that Kraft one TODAY! Love it!

    Oh my! Love your first public card and your most recent ones are great. I gave a bunch of my "firsts" to my Mom. Of course she thought they were beautiful and gave them out to her friends! EEK! LOL
