Today I am a bona fide genius!

Ok, not everyday, but I am pretty smart. And, I do use both sides of my brain. Other days I am only capable of gluing paper,  but I have been known to solve many world issues while gluing... ;)
Ok stay with me on this one.
I have many many wine labels that I have collected over the years. Tom, my husband makes wine from concentrate and usually there is a package of labels in the box. We dont use them on the bottles, so they just go into my stash of papers for art. But my collection also includes many that I have picked up at thrift shops or gifted from friends. They are all so beautiful and while I have used some in my collage art, and sold some, the collection( much like my button collection) is huge.
So today, I was looking through some papers to make some journal cards to add into my journals, and I found a few pkgs of wine labels. Omgosh!
This is where the genious part comes in...
With some cut up file folders and a little glue, in no time at all I had this beautiful stash of journal cards for my books. I used old file folders, but could easily use cardstock,  chipboard, cereal boxes and even lined index cards would work for a backing.
I still have way way too many wine labels and if you are interested, I can make up an assortment of 50 labels for 5.00 with free shipping. Send me a msg if you are interested.
All in all I am pretty pleased with these little gems.
Yep today...genius, not just genius but bona fide genious!  ;)
