R-J: Rolodex blanks

I borrowed this from lttleetoile, thank you!

Let's help each other get creative!

This swap is for 25 Rolodex blanks to 1 partner. The blanks are only required to have ONE SIDE decorated. Rolodex blanks can vary in shape and size, but must not be larger than 2 5/8" x 4". The standard size for our group is 2 1/2" x 4". It is up to the sender what they send, but why not send a variety?

Each rolodex blank should have an interesting pattern, whether it is from an old book, or you create painted or stenciled layers. All 25 cards MUST be different. The rolodex blank should either be made of fancy cardstock, or interesting papers glued to a plain rolodex card. Also consider adding: -stamping -embossing -painting -stenciling -watercolor washes -sewing to create unique backgrounds.

Of course, it would be nice to make them to please your partner and earn a heart!
