Sweet Friday! Or should I even say "sweet dreams"? Here's a little pastel dream I made using Sizzix dies. The inspiration to this dream catcher came from the feather die I ended up using for the trail of the catcher. I was intrigued by the shape of them and I wanted to use the die to something. As dream catchers seem still to be a thing, I thought to have a go with it. Then I put two and two together and thought to make a dream-like fairytale dream catcher.
The unicorn die also contributed to the color scheme - I wanted it to be cute and soft. As my goal for this year is to use more textiles in my projects, I wanted to use something else than paper for the flowers so I took a look at my stash of felt. I picked up pale pink, light yellow and spring green. To form the base to the flowers I used a vine die and made a wreath like composition to the bottom of the dream catcher.
First I thought to weave the net part of the catcher but then I managed to find a crocheted doily that was just the right size. Somehow the lace-like doily looked so much better and fitted the sweet, fairytale themed catcher fit for a princess.
