Description:

For this swap all participants will start out with a little supply kit that contains the same items as everyone else. This time the kit will be a surprise - so you are going to have to trust me.... I can tell you that it will PROBABLY include cardstock, collage sheet images, maybe some stickers, maybe some punchies, maybe some die cuts, maybe some ephemera, etc.

You will be making ONE altered rolodex card ("rolo") for each of TWO partners plus ONE MORE rolo to send to me (that's to "pay" me back for the supply kit and postage for sending it to you). So - make THREE total rolos from your supply kit. (If I am one of your send-to partners, you will still send me the extra 'pay-back' rolo, so you'll send TWO to me.)

Start with the supply kit that I furnish to you and then add whatever else you want; however, be sure that you use enough items from the supply kit (and in big enough pieces) that it is obvious they are there. You don't HAVE to add anything to the supply kit if you choose not to. (I think it's fun to challenge yourself to use only the supplies given, or to use up all the supplies given through your three pieces.)

  • Please send art you are proud of and would be happy to receive.
  • Please measure carefully. I will attempt to include rolo blanks in the supply kits, but our rolos will be required to be 4" long and 2 1/4" to 2 5/8" tall.
  • Please make sure your rolos are sturdy, not just one or two pieces of thin cardstock.

The fun of this swap will be starting with a supply kit and then seeing what your partners create using the same supplies! It would be FANTASTIC if everyone posted their completed rolos on Flickr or another photo-sharing site. (You can link them up here in the comments!)

Dates: Sign Up Deadline: 3/5/2012
I will send out supply kits by: 3/10/2012
Send by Deadline for completed rolos: 4/7/2012

(Disclaimer: I've stolen most of this swap wording from @LauraAust , and changed it to suit my purposes. If you have questions PLEASE PM me!!!)
