I don't know about you, but I'm impatient. I want to fill up my rolodex more this summer, so here's how we can, together!!! Please know, this is a challenging swap and should demonstrate a grunge technique... if you have completed several type 3 swaps , this should be no problem to follow details of this swap , but if you have done less than 10 type 3 swaps.... please don't join until you do more type 3 swaps. Create 6 standard size rolos, with "texture" using real vintage or printed images or painted images of anything you want as long as it is or looks Vintage,..... ..... please read your partner's profile for ideas, but required as long as we don't make a card of any of their dislikes. Use your images from a old book or print what you can find online. Challenge: Make 6 grungy, thick rolos standard size, send 2 each for 3 partners by using the grunge technique.... Make it Vintage with Grungy texture using common new materials ..... these rolos should be "aged looking" using brown distress inks or textures or by using paints, stamps, fruit bags, fabric, artificial small flowers, vintage jewelry, fiber,book binding, tulle and/ or buttons. Please decorate and texturize front side with lovely distressed, old grunged up found things, surrounding your Vintage image. ..... and please include your name and lightly decorate back somehow by continuing your motif from front and remember to include your info on back. Please now this is important.... Make each a different story ..... examples...Bird, wizard of Oz, child, lady, games, old advertising, Halloween, Christmas, no one wants just two Victorian ladies. Remember, Make each rolo so pretty, that as soon as you drop it in the post you wipe a year from your cheek. Make cards at least 3-6 layers thick on a standard rolo or make thicker with cereal boxes or thick cardboard boxes with notches of a .... 4 x 2.25 - 2.5 inches standard sized card. Have Fun!!!! |
