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

[piratesmate]

Yep, I'm having issues too. With my computer that is....
AHEM anyway, my rolodex has round-ish cards and the dividers are the same size as the cards but they have the letters sticking up. My inserts are blank so I'm going to alter the whole insert when it comes time to do so.

Now see - I thought it was your fault I was having trouble with the computer. It seemed to be only the pages from which you were drawing quotes! Really, it was weird. The first & last page of this thread loaded fine...

Okay, so it just wasn't my computer!!!
I waited and waited for the page to load.. finally shut the session down and started over!!

Okay.. so we are going w/ the slightly round-ish, altered, and raised letter if you chose.. I am! Got it!

Oh - we are? I didn't mean that's what we should use...if you're blaming me that is.

ETA: Oh wait...did you mean the corners? I'm so confused! I was thinking the top. OK - slightly round-ish corners sounds good to me too if I can figure out how to do it.

I think everyone was just trying to figure out which cards to use..
Some of the cards you find.. have rectangular sides and some have the round-ish edges...

or am I the one confusing everyone and should just go sit quietly in the corner??

YodasMom: keep printing what you have!!! Work on that rotating treble clef!!

I'll keep rotating that treble clef till my brain clicks in. I may also add a thumbnail pic of my Yoda (pup whose name my screen name was named after)

No!!! I wasn't blaming you at all...

I have only ever seen the round-ish corners on top.. I usually don't pay attention to the bottom of the cards until I open the package.. isn't that awful?

I'm sorry I confused everyone!!!

You're totally right on-ish!! That's the issue.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

you? quiet??

j/k!

I've gotta be quiet.. I'm confusing everyone and I didn't mean too..
going off for a while to load my dishwasher, put away the finished laundry and hope someone will sort out the mess I have created!

sure. blame me. I see how it is!!!


OK and yes I'm shouting here. I must be heard over all the crazy-ish people.
This is the rolodex I bought, at Walmart!!!! Just so ya know!!! ETA I just pulled a business card thingy out. It is roundish on the top and not so roundish on the bottom. The dividers are the same way with the arced dumaflotchy on top. See image below.

and yes those other technical terms are in the scrappers dictionary too.
now to go make up some definitions

 

[piratesmate]

Nancy, you weren't really the one confusing things...it was me! I'm the one that brought up the "Petite" cards with the round-ish card tops! (I've since Googled the cards & found out that's what they're called. )

Just started an Address Swap info thread so we can hammer out the details.

 

[MomOf2DisneyKids]

ok, here's my 2 cents. (well, maybe 5).

this is fun!! NO STRESS ALLOWED!! Let's not worry about corners, etc...and just go with our artistic vision. (LMAO...I even crack myself up! ). Seriously though, some of us may have ribbons, etc off the top/sides, or something off the 'boundaries' of the card, and know what? IT'S ALL GOOD! Dontcha think? Now, Nancy, get your butt back out here!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Yup - what she said!

Okay, I have my paper cut, but I need to play around with it a little bit more before sending off my punch. Have to go play a few rounds of CandyLand so I can get some scrapping time.

Yeah, and the coffen-ish lid was my idea, so don't blame yourself about that, Deb.......though I may have a tombstone sticking up instead.........who knows. As long as they're embellished well, it shouldn't matter the exact shape.....just so they fit the roladex thing.

Oh I love Candyland can I play too??

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Okay. I've played three rounds and he beat each time. Maybe I can win if you play.

I agree! What is the word I'm looking for, not creative freedom oh what is it??? You know when you get the right to make it how ever you want. Maybe it is creative freedom. I don't know....

The rolodex we opted for was the 2.25 x 4 so everyone break out your reading glasses and make sure you get the right size before you buy it!

 

[YodasMom]

I'm outta here for a couple of appointments this afternoon. Play nice!!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

OK, Thanks!!
I'm glad we have this hammered out now.. now to hammer out anything else we have confused others on!

This is the most important aspect is the SIZE of 2.25 x 4 and the rest is up to you! Take your own CREATIVE LIBERTIES, right?

Now, anyone that has the mind in the gutter GET IT OUT!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]
