ARTIST TRADING CARDS
These little cards are so much fun to make as there are no rules--- except one---the size ---they MUST measure 3.5 by 2.5 inches but other than that
The sky is the limit
You can use any material that you feel like paint, magic marker, rubber stamps, glitter, watercolor,fibers,artistamps,collage, digital images, whatever strikes your fancy.
I usually use card stock or cardboard as the background but I have recieved some in trades that were on other materials like playing cards,.
When you trade them be sure to sign them on the back along with the date the card was made
and if possible your email address. That way the person receiving them has a record of who they came from
I keep mine in a notebook that has plastic sleeves that hold baseball cards.. you can buy them at any of the discount stores and the atc's fit perfectly. Others I hang from the ceiling in my studio!
There are plenty of examples and information on the ATC Link page!
Check out some of my ATC'S in the GALLERY
