My mock up..

Using the influntial images from Susan Derges and a couple of the words from my little list, I decided to play around with some images. I used ice cubes as a texture because it's more of a representation of time from Winter to Spring. I used an old image of a flower and overlayed it on top using Photoshop. Of course I know I could do better with this. Though the more I look at it, the more I'm a bit drawn to it weirdly enough.

I may use this type of colouring in my final image. I am looking to pick a flower and put it in some water, freeze it, then melt half of it so that the flower stick out the melted side - both representing the change of Winter to Spring but in a less obvious way. I hope that it's not too Wintery though!
