Rolo's!

In the mail art world keeping addresses of your trading partners can be quite the hassle. I don't know how many times I have asked the same person for their address. Not too long ago I gave into the rolo fad. What's a rolo you ask? It's a rolodex card (the 3x5 variety) that has been decorated front and back and has your trading partners address on them. A clever and arty way to keep track of addresses. Since I am new to rolo's I only have a handful--but they are gorgeous! Some people have several rolodex's worth! People have even gone so far as decorationg their rolordexes. My rolodex is of the vintage variety, so I am not going to decorate it. The creativity people have shown with both the cards and the holders is flipping amazing! Here are a few cards I have made for other folks:





Here are some awesome rolodexes by folks at www.atcsforall.com:

So that's what a ROLO is!!! I saw the word on ATCsForAll and had no idea what they were! But then again I didn't even know what inchies were either before I joined! I might have to get on the Rolo bandwagon!
