Open up your eyes and see the brand new day
The clear blue sky and brightly shining sun
Open up your ears and hear the breezes say
Everything that's cold and gray is gone
Open up your hands and feel the rain come on down
Taste the wind and smell the flowers' sweet perfume
Open up your mind and let the light shine in
The earth has been reborn and life goes on
Let the light shine in…colors of spring oh how you bring a smile to my face. Erika Taylor here with a little Happy St Patty's day to all of you first and foremost. I hope you are all having a fantastic day so far. The snow is melting and there is spring in the air. Those first colors of spring really move my soul and today I've got a little project to share with you using Helmar Adhesive that makes me smile.
I took a clutch purse that I had and decided to alter it with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists, some tulle and vintage jewelry. A purse touched by the hands of spring that has been reborn indeed.
Isn't she purdy!!!???!!! Now how does all that stay put on a little glittery clutch? With a few of my favorite Helmar Products. First for the tulle, I used Helmar Premium Craft Glue. The flowers were adorned to the clutch with Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots. I don't know how I EVER crafted before I met Heaven in a Tube!!! Now how to adhere the metal jewelry… I pondered for a few seconds and just knew that Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive was going to be the answer. It would take away all the gray and let the sunshine in for sure!!!
Talk about upcycling a rather boring piece of your wardrobe into something fresh and funky, just in time for SPRING!!!!Oh the changes, blue skies, the colors of things new…A little project reborn as a small piece of Spring
Open up your eyes and see the brand new day
The clear blue sky and brightly shining sun
Open up your ears and hear the breezes say
Everything that's cold and gray is gone
Open up your hands and feel the rain come on down
Taste the wind and smell the flowers' sweet perfume
Open up your mind and let the light shine in
The earth has been reborn and life goes on
Do you care what's happening around you?
Do your senses know the changes when they come?
Do you see yourself reflected in the season?
Do you understand the need to carry on?
Riding on the tapestry of all there is to see
So many ways and oh so many things
Rejoicing in the differences there's no one just like me
Yet as different as we are we're still the same
And oh, I love the life within me
I feel a part of everything I see
And oh, I love the life around me
A part of everything is here in me
A part of everything is here in me
