This week's topic: "Spring"
For this week's topic we'd like you to post Flipnotes about the upcoming season, spring. We realize that it might still be cold in your part of the world, so if there is no green or warmth around you, create some in your Flipnotes. Also, there is no green in the palette for Flipnote Studio, so you'll have to use your artistic skills to somehow create the illusion of spring. See what you can create based on this topic, and post it to channel 8 from Flipnote Hatena on your Nintendo DSi.
We're looking forward to seeing your Flipnotes, and will feature some of the best ones next week here in the Flipnote Hatena Weekly News blog.
