This isn't the good luck card I'd planned to make for my daughter who is starting a new physiotherapy job today, working in the community. I planned to make a card during our short break our caravan, but I forgot to pack the dies I intended to use. So, I had to think of a Plan B! On the way to North Devon we stopped at a craft show and I treated myself to a set of Trimcraft alphabet dies which were half price. I picked up a paper pad for £1 in The Works with patterns that I thought would go with the dreamcatcher die I happened to have with me. As my daughter is continuing her dream of being a physiotherapist after completing a second degree several years ago, enabling her to have a complete change of career, I thought a dreamcatcher would be an appropriate image to use.
