Feeling Lucky?!?

So I was bored today and decided to try something new, but needed some inspiration. I forget what I was doing exactly, but decided I wanted to do something with a rainbow. I have to admit the ribbon in my craft room is organized in rainbow order, and I love things that are organized in that manner.. I am strange I know. Well then I thought I would use buttons to make a rainbow.. but that would be too heavy on card, so I thought I would do a tin of some kind. Then as I was making it, I realized the buttons were too large so I went to eyelets. which I have to admit I have tons of but rarely use. and I used my punches to make a pot of gold. and added some sparkle. I am now wishing I had done a layer of card stock before I did the pot of gold and rainbow, but the eyelets were already set when I thought of it. So that is a tip if you want to try this yourself. I even got to use my two way glue pen which I haven't used in ages, but I see my upline Heather use all the time and thought I would dig it out. then I thought what better candy to put inside the tin but SKITTLES!! so that is what I did. Please tell me what you think, positive or negative.... I am always looking for feedback.
I am not a huge St Patricks day person, or even normally this far ahead in my projects, its just what came to me.
