Shamrock Rainbows

My son and I made this shamrock rainbow three years ago. We really enjoyed making this one & thought I would share it with all of you!

Joke of the day: What type of bow cannot be tied? A rainbow!

Here is what you’ll need:

1. White paper
2. Paint
3. Cotton balls
4. Glue
5. Cardboard
6. Clothes pin
7. Paper towel / baby wipe

Directions:

1. To create your shamrock stamp – cut your piece of cardboard into a shamrock. Ours was roughly the size of a quarter.
2. Glue your cardboard shamrock to the tip of a clothes pin. This will be your stamp!
3. Draw 6-7 lines on your white sheet of paper to make your rainbow. You don’t have to do this step, I like to have an outline to stamp over before we start.
4. Have fun stamping! Stamp each color along it’s line. In between colors wipe your cardboard with a piece of paper towel or a baby wipe.
5. Allow your paint to dry.
6. Glue your cotton balls to each end of your rainbow – you’re finished!

These looked so good hanging on the fridge for St Patrick’s Day!
