Hello my friends. It's the first Wednesday of the month so that means that Double D Challenges has started a new challenge. This one is dear to my heart as I look eagerly for the "First Signs of Spring".
I haven't used the Hourglass Frame Die from The Greetery in quite some time. I think it was due for some love. I cut two frame layers, one from white cardstock and one from this pretty glittery cardstock. I glued them together to give the hourglass frame a bit of depth.
The darling bunny from the Springtime stamp set is just what this hourglass needed to help me pass the time crafting, while I wait for spring to arrive.
I think this umbrella looks like it's twice his size, but he seems to be managing it well. I added some clear embossing powder to the umbrella for added interest.
I popped the hourglass onto the softest piece of pink gingham printed paper.
Where are you spring??? I'm counting down the minutes until you arrive!
Please do hop on over to Double D Challenges for a look at what my talented team mates have been up to.
Here's the inspiration board to help jumpstart your creativity.
Here's the prize that you could win when you play along.

This is so sweet, ticking off the time/days til Spring! I know how much you are looking forward to gardening days, as am I! That bunny is the cutest with his little umbrella! That sentiment is so perfect too! Happy Spring, only 13 more days! Let's hope Mother Nature takes a look at her calendar lol
Way to go! I think that this die was part of a Christmas collection and now I see how you have made it Spring! So creative and a wonderful place for a bunny with an umbrella for the Spring rain.
So adorably cute and the cutest hour glass with it's sweet scene inside I have ever seen!! Incredibly creative CUTE!!
This is so delightful and sparkly, Birgit! I love how you used the hour glass die and created a scene inside. I've never thought to use mine other than as a shaker card. The gingham patterned paper is a favorite for any season. You've inspired me.
OH, and happy bunnies, too! So sweet and totally SPRING-like!
