I wanted to show everyone what my first picture was when I started this blog....

The diaper cake and stork bundle were created a few months prior to the blog being created but it was my very first picture that was uploaded to my blog.

I also wanted to share my one of my favorite anything but a card projects.

        

                       

This project actually sparked my idea to have an Anything But A Card theme.
