Description:

Now for a LARGE altered rolo swap! For this swap, we're using the large format: 3x5. I'm going with one of my favorite themes, which is "vintage Parisian". The possibilities are almost endless...pick a time period that you adore (Marie Antoinette, possibly?), pick a landmark you adore (le Tour Eiffel, anyone?), or maybe go a bit racy, with a Moulin Rouge theme. Remember to decorate the front side fully, and to give the back MORE than just a "lick and a promise"...toss a few small images and/or embellishments there, too!

Rolos do come in 3 sizes that I know of...
I discovered the ALTERED ROLO Cards (Aug 2011) ...
(SMALL cards from 2 1/4 x 4" to 3x4" cards with notches 6/8" apart) (MEDIUM 3x5"cards with notches 1 1/4" apart)
(LARGE 4X6 cards with notches 2 7/16" apart)

EBAY has some great V series holders
(I have 1 and I think its the best way to display the awesome way
these collections go above & beyond the borders!
Just search VINTAGE ROLODEX V____ & fill in the blank with the number series for the size you want!

V546 holds the LARGE 4 X 6" rolo cards
V535 holds the MEDIUM 3 X 5" rolo cards
V524 holds the SMALL size 2 1/2 X 4" cards

....HOPE THIS ROLO HOLDER INFO HELPS! Happy ROLOing! ;-) ...i have a friend that made a holder in a flat cigar box, opened and chop sticks cut off & glued in where the notches are on the cards. The top is propped up (From behind) in the back with paint stirring sticks ...cut off... to hold the cards
up...altered box, really cute ;-) LOOK ON MY PROFILE FOR A PICTURE ;-)
