Floral Spring House Rolodex


Hi everyone! I'm back again with a project I created for a swap I was in! For this swap we had to create three rolodex/memorydex cards plus decorate a small basket for Easter...I know Easter was several months ago. 😁 The swap was put on hold for about a month because of Covid19 and once everything started opening back up a new date was set for the swap. Well, by this time I got behind and I am just now getting caught up with my extra curricular projects.


I have an old Rolodex Diecut that I had purchased from Stampin' Up a very long time ago that I used to cut out my rolodex blanks. You can use store bought rolodex cards or here are links to Heidi Swapp's Memorydex Card Diecuts HERE and HERE.


I used Brenda Walton's Country Cottage 3D Diecut, Floral Tapestry Embossing Folder and Eileen Hull's Make It 3D Diecut (all retired) to created the house for the rolodex card. I used Chipboard that I covered in patterned cardstock to created the house and I also backed the rolodex with chipboard as well. I wanted the house diecut to be "thinner" than the original so I cut only the front and back and used the Make It 3D diecuts for the sides and then adhered to the rolodex card base.


I dug into my stash of flowers, leaves and butterfly punches and added those to the roof along with thread, trim and a gem for the center of the flower.


On the corner of the rolodex I adhered more flowers, thread and cheese cloth. And there you have it! The first rolodex of three that I have created. I will be back soon to share the other two rolodex cards. If you have any questions about this project please let me know.
