A bit of spring amid all this snow

It's still snowing here (very, very rare for this part of Canada) and I'm feeling the need of a bit of spring amid all this snow.

So here are Carnelian and Pink Tourmaline Star Flowers! Fun, cheery silver flower experiments from a few years ago.

And here's bit of spring/summer goodness from amoung my favourites on flickr: 140 balloons later , 'And me' by girlhula, a different kind of wedding band by swiss miss and this this by Betsy Walton.
