Dream big

The theme over at LIM this week is to use the colors of a peacock feather. So that inspired my color choices for this card.
I used a Spellbinders die to cut my dreamcatcher. I used Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers distress inks to color the feathers and Queen's Gold EP to emboss. I spritzed the background with a dark blue mist and some water and added purple brusho.
The sentiment is made up of two different stamps, I masked the " Dream "from a quote sentiment from Prima and the "big" is one from a Technique Tuesday set, they're also embossed with Queen's Gold EP.
I attached the dreamcatcher on foam and added a gold string.

This card is for these challenges:
Less Is More - #292 Peacock feather colors
Addicted to Stamps and More - #209 CAS
Happy Little Stampers - Watercolor Spritz
Glitter n Sparkle - #204 CAS

    It's a great idea using purple brushos on the spritzed dark blue, wow!! And the powder has made a fab design! LOVE the dreamcatcher stamped in with gold and Peacock Feathers DI inside, great combo!!! I must remember this !! It's also a clever idea matching two stamps for the sentiment. This CAS is a winners, surely!!! Fab work of art, my friend!!

  5. Fantastic Card Pia, the gold of the dream catcher itself. At first I thought this was a real one made from metal then realised it is a die cut. Perfect as are the feathers and the use of brusho.
