Hey there my crafty friends! Today's post features more colorful rainbows rainbows and happy thoughts with the latest rubber stamp release from Impression Obsession. It's the second day of our blog hop celebration so let's go PARTY!

Today's cards are simple but striking, with bold colors and pops of black and white. Plus, each card uses just two stamps. Just two! The first card features the new Rainbow and Clouds stamp. Isn't it cute? I love the puffy little clouds, and the sweet heart in the middle. This was just a simple stamp-and-color card with a patterned paper strip along the bottom and some washi to finish it off. (Tip: That fun angle of the paper strip adds some unique interest to a simple card!)
Next up, here's another way to celebrate rainbows of color - with paint brushes! Repetition is always a great way to use small stamps to make a BIG impact. For this card, I got a sheet of watercolor paper slightly wet and then added some splotches of color with liquid dye ink. I let it spread and drip a bit and while it was drying, I stamped and fussy cut three paintbrushes to add on with foam tape. I used the MISTI to stamp the sentiment - it's a game changer for stamping on textured watercolor paper!

I love both of your cards. I'm really loving how putting that strip of designer paper & washi tape at an angle really adds to the card. I'll have to try that sometime.
