Can you believe this.........

I went to the dentist yesterday & had a back tooth pulled.........yuck! But get this.......my dentist actually CALLED ME last night to see how I was doing! OMGosh......I about fell over from shock! This was my first time at his office & it won't be the last (unfortunately I need more work). But it makes me feel so much better knowing that he actually CARES! What a rare commodity in this day & age.

Just wanted to share that with you since I haven't been posting much lately. I'm working on some things I can't share with you yet..........Christmas in July little projects I'm anxious to show you but can't until July 25th when my partner will see her goodies........don't want to spoil the surprise for her now do we.....LOL

Have a blessed day & hope your dentist is as nice as mine! btw......I'm doing great!

My son's birthday card

My oldest son, Brett, is turning 34 on June 9th so I made a little surfer card for him using Carolee Jones' "Gone Tropic" graphics. He's currently living in New York with his wife as he finishes up his first year as a resident ER doctor at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx. We are so proud of him! Three more years & they'll be returning to California where he can surf to his heart's content. Can't come too soon..........we sure do miss them!

Anywho.......here's the card I made...........


The background was to be used as a scrapbook layout with photos inserted into the "squares" but I thought it would be cute to add more graphics & some personalization. It made for a pretty quick card. I added a bit of bling & some glitter to the "surf" plus a little dolphin pop out.

Thanks for looking!
