ABCs of Disney - Altered Rolodex Swap! ALL POSTAL 6/11! Enjoy!

[BernardandMissBianca]

Could I please have O and do "Once upon a Time"? 'Cause I love it!! It'll be fun!

Welcome aboard nez!!! Thanks for joining in!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

That pirate Mickey is perfect! No bagging out on the swap now. If you bail, you don't get the pirate. Talk about motivation.

Well I guess she told you!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Well, yes she did. I definitely want the pirate & JoJo cards. So I'll make this work somehow.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

OMG you put an earring in his ear!
What attention to detail.

I may have to bow out of this one. My Rolie Stickers are totally one dimensional. Even with cool paper and perhaps finding the right ribbon, it still won't be as cool as the two we've just seen.

NO take backs!!! You'll come up w/ an idea.. just sit on it for a while.. We still have plenty of time!!!!


KAT, I told you to step away from those rolodex cards! Don't make me fly to Arizona and take you paper and embellishments away!!! You are suppose to be sick and you come up w/ those cuties!!!

I have my idea sketched.. I'll try to piece it together this week and post to see what everyone thinks before I continue!!!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

That's not allowed!

No take backs, bowing out or other weenie manuevers.

Besides my Jojo stickers were one-dimensional. lol

I love it.. NO WEENIE MANUEVERS!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I need to figure out how to do the earring, its a staple. I may just go with it and round it out with something out of the ole toolbox. I'm glad you all like it though I'm really trying to put more attention and detail into my projects. You all are so inspirational

Hey KAT, could you possible get a package of those little rings that you make jewelry w/ to use as the earring?

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Welcome Nez and Piratesmate!!!

AWM, don't make me drive down there.. I'm headed to Greensburg tomorrow.. so you are only about 1.5 hour drive.. Don't make me come by and hollar at you!!! I hang Mickey's pants in your yard!!! (LOL, the border I made)

 

[piratesmate]

I was thinking the same thing! Poking a jump ring through his ear shouldn't be too hard after starting the hole with a needle - they're foam, right?

Okay, I'm laying down in bed with my laptop on my chest... I can't really sit up... I hurt all over and it SUCKS! I just had this 2 weeks ago - I can't believe I got a relapse!

Anyway, here are answers to some of your questions:

1) do we decorate both sides - No, the front side is enough.
2) are we decorating the dividers or the cards - I meant for this to be dividers for the rolodex, but you can use a card as your base -- the dividers are just a little bit taller than the cards, I think...
3) is it ok if they are not identical - Should be fine as long as you decorate to your theme.
4) if it is the dividers do they alternate sides for the letter - you don't need to alternate sides...

You don't really need to design a "tab" into the top of the divider. I figure that the dividers will be so embellished that it sets them apart from the regular cards... I hope this makes sense. Basically, what I envisioned is that every divider will have something sticking out (like ribbon or something). I figured that it wouldn't just blend in (sizewise) with the regular cards.

Now to catch up with the last 8 pages.... Thank you Buffy for starting the list for me!

 

[bubbasmom99]

Hey, I see y'all decided to go with the Left/Right tab design, which is totally fine by me Wow -- I feel like the flakiest hostess ever.... You guys are on a mission!

 

[lewdyan1]

Wow, I am super impressed with the two I have seen so far! I can't wait to see the finished product! Great Job ladies!

 

[Dreamer & Wisher]

May I join the swap? I would like to pick Y for yellow. Since Mickey's shoes are yellow!

The JoJo and the Pirate cards are so cute!

 

[momx3boys]

Wow, you all are chatty. I agree the JoJo and Pirate cards are too cute. This will be a great swap.

 

[momx3boys]

so, does anyone have the punch for the bottom? I'm trying to imagine cutting out 52 slots with a craft knife, and it makes me want to cry!

A tip I learned- when I make the rolodex cards I cover the card in the paper I want to use, then I use a hole punch to punch the hole at the bottom and use scissors to cut the slit.

I can do that. Cool, only have to ink the edges now.

Get yourself checked, DS10 felt crappy all over and ended up with pneumonia. He is finally on the road to recovery but it was a tough week

Your welcome for keeping up, what a scarpin' sisters for?! Do you want me to keep my list updated so all you have to do it cut and paste?

I've got you added! Welcome aboard!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

OK I have updated the list page 4 post #59. It also has some of your questions answered so please read the top of the post.
Thanks!

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

Yikes! I really fell behind on reading this thread! Y'all were very chatty tonight!

Kat--I LOVE those!!

I have SO got to get on the ball! I have an idea of what I am going to do. It is likely that the Cricut will be involved! However, I have to admit I feel a little (a lot) intimidated after seeing the 2 wonderful ones already posted. No weenie maneuvers here, but I've just got to get my tush in gear!
