Description:

I dont know if anyone swaps rolodex cards but the principle is the same as an altered playing card. You get a standard rolodex card and alter it with any medium you wish. It can be collage, ephemera, paint drawing etc. the theme for these rolodex cards is at least one mermaid must be present on the card. You will have two partners, one card each. sign up date will be january 1. Send out will be January 10. This should give us some time to recover from the holiday season and still have time to do the projects! you must have a 4.9 or higher, no recent ones or threes in the last six months. This is my first rolodex card to alter. If there are any rules...please let me know what they are.

OK, so here is a little more info. It would be great if the front was altered, but lets not forget that the back can be altered as well as putting your name and info. It is a traditional card for putting addresses on! No sticker slapping. these should be very nice and displayable.

Wow! thanks for the templates! yes, either of these will be fine! @dakini , the 2.5x4 is what Im familiar with. we'll go with that.

OH good!!

The great thing about rolos is that embellishments may stick out on the top up to 3" on the smaller cards! That is why I said 3x5"...;-)
