Are you ready for some pretty colors from Arielle and colourQ? I loved the eclectic mix of these colors and they gave me the perfect excuse to ink up a brand new stamp set.
The splashy images of this stamp set actually remind me of a somewhat famous landmark in Boston. Visible from the Southeast Expressway there is a gas tank that has been painted with the "Rainbow Swash," a design by Corita Kent. It's been there since the 1970's and I'm sure I've seen it hundreds of times. I wonder if I was subconsciously thinking of it when I first saw this stamp set? Here's what it looks like.
Incidentally when I was searching the web for a picture of the tank I read a little about the history of it and found out this is the largest copyrighted artwork in the world!
Thanks for stopping by today. Be sure to hop on over to colourQ and check out the beautiful cards the design team has made to amaze and delight you!
