Artist's Trading Cards


These are the 3 Free ATCs(Artist's Trading Cards) that Carol is doing today, June 4th from 11 to 3 pm.
If you are not familiar with Artist's Trading Cards they are little pieces of art that people trade and collect much like baseball trading cards.
We have an ATC swap every month at the Artfull Hand. The theme for June's swap is SouthWest. The theme is up to the individual's interpretation. A few of the themes we've have had this year so far were....'In the Beginning', 'Frogs' and 'Flower Power'. Coming up some of the themes will be 'Black & White', 'Monsters' and 'Games'. The only two rules are 1. Each ATC MUST be 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"; 2. They must be traded not sold. Other then that anything goes..... In my collection ( I now have 7- 3 ring binders FULL) I have fabric, wood, leather, glass, metal and of course ATCs made from paper. Why don't you come and play with us..? It is a lot of fun....
