DREAM BIG


I know dreamcatchers have become so much part of popular culture these days but traditionally they have so much significance in Native American culture. A dreamcatcher is a handmade willow hoop, on which is woven a net or web. The dreamcatcher may also include sacred items such as certain feathers or beads. Traditionally they are often hung over cradles as protection.

On this card I have made the dreamcatcher the focal point of the card, the image has been designed by KennaSatoDesigns  and is available on Etsy. I have paper pieced some of the feathers to add dimension and movement. The background is a simple watercolour background and the sentiment Dream Big has been done using Bleeding Cowboys font. I have added a diamante to the center of the dreamcatcher.
