Welcome to the Scrap to Treasure’s Blog Hop. 



We are independent bloggers who love to craft like crazy and show it all off, crafters from the sister group the “Krazy Crafting Crew”, and even more crafters have joined this group to bring you many ideas on what to do with those crazy scraps that keep piling up!  Our goal is to inspire you to go through your stash and create!  If you would like to join this team you are welcome to share what you have too with new themes, swaps, challenges and more every month.  Just contact Robin or Lissa if you are interested in hoppin’ and scrappin’ with scraps too!

If you have stumbled upon this hop, and would love to start from the beginning, our host this month is PAM which is where you should have come from.

Buttercups and daisies-
Oh the pretty flowers,
Coming ere the springtime
To tell of sunny hours.
While the trees are leafless,
While the fields are bare,
Buttercups and daisies
Spring up here and there.

For my project today I have made this double layout…



I used the Artiste Cricut cartridge to cut the flowers and the photo mats.  The green paper is random stamped.

I hope you have enjoyed my project today, enough to leave a little love.  Our host is having a giveaway and a variety of blogs may be offering some blog candy as well,  they all have their own wishes for you to win on their own blog, so don't forget to read the rules for each crafter has different requirements if they are offering any extra’s.
