3. Fold the small flap around the nugget and add a bit of the Glue Dots® Permanent GlueTape to close the cardstock around the nugget. Repeat for each of the 18 nuggets.
   
4. Using a mix of Glue Dots® add the layers of the bouquet to together.
   
5. Add the now assembled bouquet to the tag using Glue Dots® All-Purpose Dots.

7. With the twine, thread some trough the hole of the tag. Trim it to the size you’d like.
   
   
8. With the remaining flowers, use the Glue Dots® Micro Dots to glue the flower centers.
   
9. Once they have their centers, use a Glue Dots® All-Purpose Dot to stick to the embossed white cardstock.
   
   
10. Fill the cup and the saucer with the covered nugget treats.
