My card share today is a special birthday card for my daughter, Lauren. Lauren is an artist and I knew she would appreciate the Dream Catcher as well as the sentiment.
- The Very Vanilla card base measures 4″ x 6″. Another panel of Very Vanilla with strips of Moroccan Designer Series Paper is popped with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The Dream Catcher was created using a new Lace Doily from the Occasions Catalog and the Layering Circles framelits. These doilies are so pretty and quite sturdy.
- I used Foam Adhesive Strips cut in small strips to adhere it to the card.
- The feathers are not Stampin’ Up! They’re from a set I purchased awhile ago but were just perfect for this project. I stamped them in Crushed Curry, Dapper Denim and Cajun Craze ink.
- I attached the feathers with Linen Thread and dimensionals.
- The inside sentiment is actually two different stamp sets. The first greeting is from Grateful Bunch stamp set and the bottom from Birthday Blossoms. Even though they’re different fonts, they seem to compliment each other and express exactly what I wanted to say.
- Since this was an “off” sized card, I used the Envelope Punch Board to create my envelope.
- Here’s a breakdown of some of the key products I used for this project.
- The Designer Tee stamp set is available as part of Sale-a-Bration and can be earned as a FREE set.

Oh Boy . . . look at those comments! I had to come over from Mary’s site and tell you how much I LOVE this card. What a beautiful job. The detail is wonderful! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it.

Thanks so much for your kind comment, Nancy!
I was really surprised at the size of this card base. We sometimes get too comfortable with what is usual that we forget about doing our own thing. Thank you for reminding me to listen to my own drum too! TFS
I agree, Gloria. There are no rules…and we should take creative license. I fall into following the norm way too much also but this idea would just not fit on a standard card base and that was totally OK! Thanks for taking the time to comment.
What a fun, creative card and usage of our beautiful doilies! I’d love to know where you found the feather and dies set. It is just perfect for your card! Thank you for sharing your lovely idea!
I love your dream catcher card, It is beautiful. I want to make one so bad but have to wait for a week until all my products come in. I am going to try and use real feathers instead of the stamped feathers. Thank you so much for sharing your card. Looking forward to more fantastic cards.
Thanks very much, Leslie. This was a fun card to make and the perfect card for my artist daughter. I hope you enjoy making one just as much as I did!
