At Tuscan Rose she calls her project Scrapodex. Her project is from a few years back but if you click on Scrapodex in her category list she has a lot of posts about her project.
Collage artist Seth Apter called his project Rolodecks. He didn't have a Rolodex so he used a small box as his holder.
Kristin Peterson at Altered States Studio often uses Rolodex cards to get her creative juices flowing.
My sister has created a few more cards for her project of positive quotes:
One of the things I am enjoying about this project (besides the fact that it includes vintage office supplies) is that it's quick. My cards are 3 x 5. Once I built up a little stash of covered cards it was very easy to fit a little art in after a busy day and complete a full card in a short amount of time.
I'm going to fill the "A" section with a card a day for Advent.

ReplyDeleteNeither did I, Bernice! It's been a fun project and I'm looking forward to taking it through Advent.
DeleteVery cool. You are inspiring me to put a journal together for Advent. Something small, like this, would be ideal.
ReplyDeleteSmall and quick is where I am at in life and art right now!

DeleteI like the idea of a a card a day for Advent. Your rolls are inspiring. I am struggling right now in creating them and this gave me a burst of inspiration. I am drawn to the simplicity of them. I think I make mine too complicated then get frustrated.
ReplyDeleteHi! I just found your blog and this post -- I am making a rolodex filled with art and found yours. Thanks for the eye candy and inspiration. And I thought I thought the project up....silly me! lol
ReplyDeleteSo glad you stopped by, Pamela. Are you posting your Rolodex art cards anywhere? I would love to see them!
Deletewaue awsome
ReplyDeleteI really like this idea. Your work is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSo cool! How do you decorate around the holes in the bottom of the cards?
ReplyDeleteSusan, I usually glue my papers and other items on and then cut out the holes from the reverse side.
