C#

Model

public class CarouselModel 
{
    public CarouselModel(string buttonstr, string labelstr)
    {
        ButtonString = buttonstr;
        LabelString = labelstr;
    }
    public string ButtonString { get; set; }
    public string LabelString { get; set; }
}

C#

 public MainPage() 
 {
     InitializeComponent();

     SfCarousel sfCarousel = new SfCarousel();            

     var carouselModel = new List<CarouselModel> 
     {
     new CarouselModel ("Button1","Label1"),
     new CarouselModel ("Button2","Label2"),
     new CarouselModel ("Button3","Label3"),
     new CarouselModel ("Button4","Label4"),
     new CarouselModel ("Button5","Label5")
     };
     var carouselDataTemplate = new DataTemplate(() =>
     {

         var stack = new StackLayout();
         var buttonText = new Button() { TextColor = Colors.DarkGreen, FontSize =20, BackgroundColor = Color.FromArgb("#a9afb0"), HeightRequest = 200, WidthRequest = 200 };
         buttonText.SetBinding(Button.TextProperty, "ButtonString");
         var labelText = new Label() { TextColor = Colors.Red, FontSize = 20, HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center };
         labelText.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, "LabelString");

         stack.Children.Add(buttonText);
         stack.Children.Add(labelText);

         return stack;

     });
     sfCarousel.ItemTemplate = carouselDataTemplate;
     sfCarousel.ItemsSource = carouselModel;
     this.Content = sfCarousel;
