Great list which I hope I can find later to go into in more detail on the laptop, which is being cleaned up by Dell Concierge service at the moment so I am not getting my work done. I discovered SuzyQScraps, available at Studio Girls -scrapbookinggraphics.com – and really am drawn to her style. Hope to get back to digi lessons once the auditor comes and goes at work next week.
