Happy Spring

Last week was the first day of spring!  While some of you may be having nice days with some of the spring flowers peaking up through the ground....we don't as we still have snow!

Here is a little interesting note about spring this year!

In 2020, the spring equinox (also called the March equinox or vernal equinox) occured on Thursday, March 19, which is earlier than it’s been in over a century! This event marks the astronomical first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere. 

For much of the last century, the spring equinox has occurred on March 20 or 21. This year, however, the equinox happens on the 19th , making it the earliest spring we’ll have seen in our lives (so far). The last time spring arrived this early was in 1896—a whopping 124 years ago! 


 My spring card shows rain so I am just hoping that may come soon to wash away all of our snow!



I used the Pleased as Punch DSP which is a Coordination Product Release item that is only available until March 31st.  Don't miss out.....place your order today!

I used the retired Artisan Pearls (Petal Pink, Rich Razzleberry, So Saffron, Tranquil Tide) and coloured another small pearl with the Balmy Blue Light Blend.  The word "Spring" is from the Fable Friends stamp set.
