Default What was your first purchase here?

I LOVE to Digital scrapbook shop and I was thinking about my first kits that I bought here about 2 1/2 years ago. What was your first purchase here?

Here are a few of my very first purchases at Designer Digitals-

Rag Doll kit by Katie Pertiet-


Wirl Wind by MaryAnn Wise

I thought the Cabana White paper or the White Sticker alpha were my first purchases but I was wrong. According to my account history messy white stitching was my first purchase among other things:



I'm finding it pretty funny that I obviously had a thing for white back in the Spring of 2006

My very first (that I'd forgotten completely about) was Anna's



I didn't know how to use a clipping mask and just nudged and resized everything to fit! LOL!

My very first purchase, In April of 2005, was Katie's Caramel Floral paper. I too had to check out my account history and was surprised to see all of my orders back for over three years!

Fun question!

Mine was Botanist Notebook #4

Look at all the goodies: It has great background paper, staples, stitching, an aged alpha, stamps and a ledger grid. I STILL use pieces of this kit on a regular basis, especially the pair of staples. I swear every other one of my layouts has these staples!

SWAK Glitter-n-Brushes:


Vintage Photo Frames Curled-n-Flat No. 08


Curled Journal Spots No. 03

My first was the Alpha Jumble Paper Pack by MaryAnn Wise. I remember my first LO, 2 years ago, was a hybrid page of my daughter and her first homework assignments from school.

My first total was $35.49, and included these great basics!

Deckled Edge Frames


Digital Date Stamps No. 01


Jefferson Paper Pack


My first order also included three other digital date stamps & three packs of Katie's Messy Stitches! Many of these products are such basics, and ones that I have in my desktop "go to" folder of most used items.

Great thread Chrissy!

Mine was back in Nov 2005 after lurking for awhile. It was the Jack and Me kit. I'm wondering if Katie retired it. I can't find it in the store. I remember thinking then how much better DD's designs were than everyone else's.

I am cracking up! I was in awe of all of you and your memories until "orders history" was mentioned!!! I thought you were all remembering this off the tops of your heads! What a relief!!

What a great thread, Crissy!

My first order was in August of 2005. Two of the products are retired. Here is the third:

Defining Friends Paper Single
