Perennial Birthday in Shaded Spruce

Hello Stampers ~ the Perennial Birthday in Shaded Spruce presented an interesting challenge for me.

I had a great time playing with my demo friend yesterday.  I played with my Gelli plate and some watercoloring ideas using reinkers and tissue paper.  I will be using these items on my cards over the next few months as I made quite a few of each.  We had some strong storms last night but we needed the rain.  The weather will be cooler over the next few days which will be a welcome relief.  I am sure the pool will be chilly today after the rain last night.  I have to run some errands today and pick up a few supplies.  I need some things for my Facebook Live idea I want to do and I want to get some tomatoes and a watermelon from the produce stand.  I also want to check out the sports store and see if I can find a small electric smoker.  I found some online but they are larger than I need for just me.  If the sports store does not have a smaller one I will order one I found online.  Then I need a grill and I will be set for the girls visit!

My One Color Wonder series is today and I had a real challenge.  I had Perennial Birthday which has a lot of flower images and Shaded Spruce which is not necessarily a feminine color.  I think I did a pretty good job with this challenge.  Here is the video for my Perennial Birthday in Shaded Spruce.

Thanks for visiting me today and I hope I inspired you.  I did some sewing yesterday and want to sew some more but I may not get to do it until tomorrow.  I made a throw pillow for my bed.  I still have another one for my bed and one for the guest bed I want to get made.  Have a Wonderful Wednesday and what did you think of my Perennial Birthday in Shaded Spruce?
