Description:

For this swap you will alter a rolodex card, 2nd round..Theme will be Numbers (open to your own interpretation)

growing our “Rolo” collection.

I have noticed that the new rolodex cards & fillers are made only from very thin printer paper.....because we are altering them and they need to stand up in the rolodex holder, not bend over….the rolo cards must be made from heavier weight cardstock or thicker paper ( similar to how you would create a atc)

We will be using the largest standard size.. which is approx 2 ½” x 4” Landscape orientation

…Sizzix does have a Bigz Clear Die Cut (card telephone,address), not sure if other die cuts are available? or If you would like to make the rolodex cards you may also cut out 2 ½” x 4” then round the corners and most office supply stores carry the punch for the slots at the bottom as a option…you are not required to cut the slots in the bottom of the card the receiver can do that to match their holder. but please leave the slot area free of altering so your partner can punch the rolo card.

Make sure and put your contact information on the back, and since the back does show, please decorate it lightly.

All Queen rules and standards apply…so please only send what you would love to receive…..please ask any questions if you are uncertain of anything

I've never made one of these. Can they, or are they supposed to be, chunky?

I have a rotary card file, so when the card is hanging down in the file it displays the back side of the card. Can I request that the back side of the card be lightly decorated in the upside-down orientation? (i.e. punched slots would appear at the top of the card on the back)

Julia....yes chunky is fine....flat as well...just basically altered
