Lucky Me

Happy Friday!!  It's time for another challenge from Jo's Scrap Shack.  As always, we are now an Anything Goes challenge and our sponsor for the week is The Cutting Cafe.

I was given this fun file set called "Lucky Me" and this is what I came up with:

 The file comes with two different sentiment sheets all with the large "LUCKY" and various sentiments to go along with it.  Then there are 3 different choices; the "LUCKY" can be green, black or clear.  I chose clear because I wanted to create an ombre effect.  Then there are several different sheets full of shamrocks in a variety of colors and patterns.  I chose to use three of the greens, a large, small and little tiny.  Since I decided to to create a shaker element, I wanted to keep the rest of it rather simple.

 I love shakers; they are just so fun (a bit of a bear to put together, but the fun is worth it)!  I used gold and green sequins and gold and clear seed beads.
