PKS Challenge 13-8 :: 3D Objects :: Metal

My first challenge entry!!!

Peachy Keen Stamps has weekly challenges with specific themes ... this week, 3D objects / metal.  The metal portion could be either the main part of your creation or metal embellishments could be used.  I chose to use a miniature glavanized steel pail for my project.

I had many projects recently that required me to use a LOT of pink so I made sure that I didn't use it for this project.
