City Crafter 366 ~ Frame It!

It happens every once in a while but today is both our son's birthday AND Father's Day!  What a great present our son has been to his Father!
 
I am playing along with City Crafter 366 ~ Framed
 
I made them each a Framed Card and first up is our son's card:
We are very much beach people and in the frame is sand from one of my son's favorite beaches!

Here's a closer look.  I added some glass glitter to the sand to create sparkles!

Here is my husband's Father's Day Card.  I water colored the background, used a couple of Prima embellishments, and frame it in glitter.
 
It was so much FUN being inspired by The City Crafter blog!
 
I hope you like my cards!
