I just got around to reading my November issue, although I've had it for a couple of weeks now. Been practicing, practicing, practicing making elements. And since I don't have the use of my desktop for awhile (SP2 installation AND problems)

, I'm using my boyfriend's laptop to check out the site and catch up on my email. He's over there mumbling and rolling his eyes, and yes, cussing out Microsoft! I'm ROFL, cause I didn't want the update anyway.
I have to tell you ladies that I'm not surprised you were selected for inclusion in the magazine. I've admired your layouts since I first joined SBB, and while there are other digital scrappers whom I'm sure sent their layouts in for consideration, in my opinion, CK chose from among the cream of the crop!
Here's my "standing ovation" to you all! Congrats! I'm looking forward to learning more from all of you.
