Buckets of Love Valentines Gift - Day 4 of the Fleurette Bloom and Trendy Twine Inspiration Party

Hi everyone, welcome to Day 4 of the Fleurette Bloom and Trendy Twine's Inspiration Party!

I created this cute treat bucket - the perfect gift for someone special this Valentine's day.  The bucket file is from Fleurette Bloom's Beach Bucket 3D SVG Project Kit, It's super easy to put together and I just love how I was able to adapt a beach bucket to a Valentine's theme!

I just couldn't find the right stamp so I made my own using sketch pens in my Silhouette Cameo. I love this technique as you can choose the colour, font, and of course - the caption, to suit any project! I completed the spade by wrapping the handle with Totally Raspberry Trendy Twine.  I just love how it turned out.  
After I cut all the pieces of the flower, I thought it looked a bit flat.  So with a bit of twisting and bending of all the pieces for the flower, it really made it come to life.  As I didn't have anything in my stash to match, I decided to make the burlap button using my I-top tool and then added a Totally Raspberry Twine bow before adhering it to the flower. 
Finally, it was time to add the treats!  You can add anything of your choice of course, but I opted for good old marshmallows!  Who doesn't like those:)  I simply placed them in a cellophane bag and dressed it up with a mix of Totally Pink and Totally Raspberry Twine.   I think it looks good enough to eat, don't you?
