Description:

What do you think of when you hear "WINTER"? I think of white snow, glittery snowflakes, and then some purple thrown in for good measure! Maybe you think of hot chocolate? Cardnals? Greenery wreaths? Skiing? Commuting on the ice roads?

For this swap you will make ONE winter themed Rolodex card (the kind with two notches in the bottom) for each of TEN partners. Decorate them as you wish as long as they are fabulous and something you'd be happy to get.

Please use the 2 1/4" by 4" or the 2 5/8" by 4" sized cards. Decorate the backs at least a little bit (they don't have to be as elaborate as the fronts) and be sure to include your name on the back.

Feel free to add embellishments that hang off the edge opposite of the nothces - but don't put these on any other sides as they might interfere with the operation of your partner's rolodex file depending on whether they are using a flat style or a rotary style.

Usual rules apply: * No sticker slapping (but stickers are definitely allowed) * Any medium * Late sends and flakers will not be tolerated.

Please PM me with any questions.

Oh holy jeez, woman. TEN??? I've only just now made my FIRST ONE.

um, I kinda agree with @Leashah . i like to customize mine a little if i can even when it's sender's choice and doing ten sounds like a production line w/no individuality. BUT i am new to making paper crafts and rolos so you just might be really fast and really good at creating yours @LauraAust . ;)

Well... to me rolo cards aren't really any different than ATCs and there are MEGA swaps (20 partners) for those all the time. After all, there's nothing wrong with making parts of them in a fashion similar to a production line but then you can still make the finishing touches individualized - or, you might just plain not feel like a swap of this size is for you - it's all good - no matter what you decide is right for you! :)

Thanks @LauraAust . I think as a noob I just saw the number and felt intimidated. I did realize the title stated it was Half Mega so I should have realized it was definitely going to be more than one. I'm also still learning the terminology so thanks for that too. :)

Hey - no problem! I'm here to help! :)

@LauraAust - the rolos I have are rounded at the top - Are those okay to use?

LauraAust 09/18/2011 #

@teresamarie - those are definitely ok to use! Some of mine are rounded at the top and some aren't. I figure it really doesn't matter what the tops of the cards do since you might have embellishments sticking off the tops anyway!
