Textured Rollodex card

Today I Created | A Rollodex card using Texture Fades.

I used a standard Rollodex card and ran it through my BigShot machine using a Tim Holtz Texture Fade. The paper is a little thin for this application but it worked. I would suggest cutting a card from thicker paper and running it through a Texture Fade.

I am trying to make the designs fit the person named on the Rollodex card. This will be used for a friend that works in the automotive industry.

Accountant's Rollodex

Today I Created| A Rollodex card for my accountant.

My accountant must like numbers or at least I hope he does. I used a piece of cardstock that had columns of numbers and formal alphabet stickers that states: CPA.

But my accountant also enjoys raising sheep and collecting antiques so I had to make his card a little less stuffy. I painted an area white and will include his information there. I wanted the paint to be informal just like he is.

Old School Organizing

Today I Created | Rollodex cards

I bought a Rollodex at a garage sale the other day. The seller complimented me for being "old school" in my organizing choice. I have been playing with the concept of organizing my phone contacts but in an altered, creative way. New Rollodex systems are rather expensive for something that I was just going to experiment with but for $1 I couldn't go wrong.

This card is for my friend, Holly. I had saved her new address torn from the Christmas card envelope. I wanted to incorporate the actual ephemera plus I added the holly sticker as a quick visual clue. Holly is also a writer so I added the typewriter tape from cutetapes.com.

This is the first of many cards that I plan to create.
