Description:

One of my favorite things lately is fun typography.

ty·pog·ra·phy
/tīˈpägrəfē/ Noun

The art or process of setting and arranging types and printing from them.
The style and appearance of printed matter.

Many examples HERE

Let's create an altered rolodex card for each of two partners, using typography as our theme... Let the type be your muse!

Rolo cards will be 2-3" tall and 4" wide. Please decorate the back, if only lightly to go with your main decorations on the front. Please include TEXTURE AND DIMENSION, no completely flat rolos this theme! This could easily be accomplished with foam letters or something like that! Even your embellishments can be considered your texture and dimension.

Create art you would be proud to display. Please sign the backs of the rolos you create.

disclaimer: Sea monkeys will eat your face if you flake. Seriously.

PLEASE feel free to ask questions!

@Leashah
Do you by chance have a picture of a rolo of any theme I could look at? I have a really cool idea for what I want to do and generally think I know what rolo's are- like the cards for a rolodex, right? Anyway, when I went online to google it....guess what pulled up? Rolos...the candy....

Never mind! I turned my brain back on and searched for Altered Rolodex cards and viola! There they were. Questions answered... :)

HERE is the folder of the rolos I've made since I started creating them.

I'm an idiot. Made a cool Rolo then remembered I need two. Durrr.
