Description:

If you've never done an ATC swap before, but liked the idea, then this is for you. Likewise, if you're an expert, this is also for you!

Simple: make 1 ATC for 1 partner, sender's choice. An ATC, or Artist's Trading Card is a little piece of art. An ATC needs to be 2.5" by 3.5", landscape or portrait. It should be backed with sturdy card. It should ideally have, on the back, a title (you make it up, it's fun to think of one!), the artist's name (that's you!) and the date. There can be more details if desired.

The majority of ATCs I have received are papercraft collage style. You will see in a lot of ATC swaps that a sticker on a piece of card is NOT an ATC. Quite right. It can be drawn, painted, collaged, sewn, embroidered, appliqued, embellished... what have I left out?

Have a look here: clicky link for some fab examples.

For yours, do whatever you do best. Hmmm...how can I do a knitted ATC? That's one to try!!

You're all welcome to join, but please make sure that your profile is full of useful information about yourself. This will make it easier for your partner, should they decide to make your ATC profile specific.
