Rainbow Collage Sun Catcher

I sound like a broken record, but we are hoping to lure some little leprechauns into our house, and rainbows have been known to catch their eye.  You already know how much I love sun catchers (we made the store bought variety, and butterflies, and hearts, and shamrocks), and now after going back and looking at all of those posts it seems that I cannot decide if they should be called "suncatchers" or "sun catchers".

Anyway, I always love an excuse for fine motor work and tearing tissue paper gets those fingers moving.  I had R tear tissue paper in all of the colors of the rainbow.  Then I cut a rainbow shape out of clear contact paper and helped her stick the pieces on in the right order.  We read What Makes a Rainbow by Betty Ann Schwartz while we worked on this to help R remember the correct order of colors in the rainbow.

When she finished, I placed another piece of contact paper over her rainbow to seal the pieces inside.

 I cut out the rainbow and then we used double sided tape to stick a few cotton ball clouds on the bottom.

Another sun catcher, another cloudy day.  What's the deal with that?  Maybe I'm subconsciously hoping our sun catchers will bring the sun out from behind the clouds!
