Description:

Swap: You will send 2 altered rolodex cards ( to one partner. the theme is wings. Add something to the rolodex card that has wings or is a wing(s) or refers to something that has wings. Wings is your prompt. Craft nicely, no flaking or you will be un-grouped.

**edit-Recievers Please let your sender know if you have a round or flat rolodex so they will know whether to decorate the back of the card or not. LIGHTLY decorated.

Since this is a new group I am including some links of examples of rolodex card art. Examples and inspiration:

I have a question. Is each altered rolodex card supposed to have something sticking off of it, or some sort of tab sticking up? How far out can things stick out?

@delux it's senders choice if there are things sticking off the card. i wouldn't go more than an inch bc some rolodexes have lids and might not close if things stick out to far. just an idea.

FYI I have a round rolodex.. would love to have the back of my card treated!

I have a flat one and I don't care if the back is decorated or not..

I Have a flat rolodex and don't care if the back is done or not.

deLux 08/10/2011 #

well. I spent a bunch of extra time doing the backs! Oh well.

I've been wanting to do one of these, no this will make me do it. Sometimes I need a push. I have a flat rolodex, but would like something on back if possible. Thankx

DeLux i'm sure you will get a heart for the extra time and work.

PinkLotus 08/16/2011 #

absolutely babgrrl - eventhough I don't care about anything being on the back of mine - if I got delux's rolos I would give a heart AND a glowing comment in appreciation :-)

I have a flat rolodex and I would LOVE decorated back-of-cards with artist's info - like you do for an ATC. Thanks.
