You can thank Tracyfish for that one. ;-)

Traci Reed · #2 08-05-2010, 04:26 PM

Heh. IDK if I even have it anymore. I started back in 2004 when digi was so new, we weren't even capable of making nice stuff..

lol...yes, they have. Texture was pretty much unheard of.

adrianka · #8 08-05-2010, 05:27 PM

Ha! This is a great thread. Thanks for starting it!

hollyxann · #9 08-05-2010, 05:27 PM

It's kinda crazy to see how far digi scrapbooking has come over the years.

Robin Carlton · #10 08-05-2010, 05:31 PM

ok here's one of the three kits I debuted at the Digichick with...

Can't believe I am showing this off...

Robin Carlton · #11 08-05-2010, 05:33 PM

Oooh found one of the other ones too..

BrattyMeg · #12 08-05-2010, 05:33 PM

Kits were soooo tiny then too lol

Y'all are brave

My first kit ever got sold @ SSD. It was a collab with my girl Kristin

BrattyMeg · #13 08-05-2010, 05:33 PM

Who were those named for Robin? lol

Thanks for playing, this is so fun to see!!!

Robin Carlton · #15 08-05-2010, 05:36 PM

my best friend and her daughter - I had a katie, emily and andy too - that was back when I thought naming kits after people would be my schtick. manda told me it was gay, so yeah.... stopped doing that LOL

Robin Carlton · #16 08-05-2010, 05:39 PM

incidentally and EVEN scarier, THIS is one of the kits I was hired based on...

Seriously - how SCARY is that???! Look at that sexy texture btw!

WOW...

sassynsweet · #17 08-05-2010, 05:54 PM

heehee, personally I think Manda's texture in this one is pretty fabulous too

Robin Carlton · #18 08-05-2010, 06:11 PM

OMGOSH I love that that shape is in both of our old kits - it's super HOT isnt it?

heathergw · #19 08-05-2010, 06:13 PM

what a fun thread... it's so cool to see how far designing kits has come

tuneskids · #20 08-05-2010, 06:18 PM

I have some old KCB kits, I don't think she has them anymore though, she is famous for "losing" the ones she hates. lmao

Megan Turnidge · #21 08-05-2010, 06:19 PM

MORE! MORE!!!

tettletop20 · #24 08-05-2010, 06:42 PM

This is great!

Julie Billingsley · #25 08-05-2010, 06:43 PM

here is mine, ugh!

Traci Reed · #26 08-05-2010, 06:48 PM

I love that kit Julie! LOL

jocelinsmommy · #27 08-05-2010, 07:20 PM

I still own Julies it's one of my faves <3 <3 wubbb it!!

lovely1m · #28 08-05-2010, 07:36 PM

Yeah, I bought Julie's, too. Never realized it was your first, it was good.

nikkiARNGwife · #29 08-05-2010, 08:18 PM

Too funny

Julie I still love that kit

kscwgirl · #30 08-05-2010, 09:25 PM

How did y'all do layouts back then with like no elements to speak of?

Julie, I still have, and love, that kit.

junebug · #31 08-05-2010, 09:56 PM

Julie's kit was one of the first ones i ever bought; moved up from strictly freebie hunting to purchasing kits lol.

Jenn Barrette · #32 08-05-2010, 10:02 PM

Isn't it amazing how far digi has come? Extractions were unheard of back then. My kits were horrible when I started. I didn't know how to use my program, and every thing was out of proportion.

Julie Billingsley · #33 08-05-2010, 10:18 PM

I love you guys

scrapperjade · #34 08-05-2010, 10:43 PM

I think the designers need to have a re-do... like take their first kits, and make them brand new and better (but maybe minus those flower things that Robin & Manda used, haha)!!

Chantal Miller · #35 08-06-2010, 12:16 AM

I agree with Jaedyn...
I think Libby's redone the colour pallette of her first one...

Libby Pritchett · #36 08-06-2010, 12:23 AM

Yep! I redid A Man Named Brady for my 1st anniversary at SSD last year.

(I cracked myself up with the title, too. Wacka wacka!!)

Ebony · #37 08-06-2010, 01:21 AM

Julie yours was rockin! That's still good by todays standards!

When was it done?

Really?? I didn't start digi-scrapping until 2007 and even later actually in forums and stores.... I could have sworn I was around when it was released! I guess it was just that good I remember it!

They know they can't beat the atrocities that are my first kits so they aren't even bothering.

Penny Springmann · #47 08-06-2010, 04:06 PM

LOL...this is cracking me up...Those of us who started earlier were at a distinct disadvantage....or perhaps I just say that to make myself feel better! LOL!

Here are 2 of my firsts. I don't have my real 1st anymore! LOL:
FROM 2006!

and this one:

Amber1279 · #48 08-06-2010, 05:40 PM

I don't think I have Traci's "first" kit ... but they go WAY back to ScrapMommies and then I may have pieces of some of La's first before she came to SSD as well.

And layouts back then look NOTHING like layouts with today's kits. Mine were very reminicient of Creative Memories paper scrapbooking. A few layered papers, some ribbon ... maybe a "charm" LOL
