Artist Trading Cards (also known as ATCs)
What Are Artist Trading Cards?
Originating in Europe and coming to Canada and spreading all over the world, Artist Trading Cards have become exceedingly popular across the United States.
Artist Trading Cards are a variation of the popular mass-produced trading cards available for sale all over the world. The difference is rather than buying them, you make them. This means that each card is an original work of art, or one of a small edition run that you can trade with other people who have created their own cards.
Any and all materials and techniques are permitted (drawing in pencil, pen, marker, chalk or crayon, etc.
painting, photographs, collage, found materials, mixed media, stickers, rubber stamping -- anything.There is only one rule:
the cards should be 2.5 inches wide by 3.5 inches tall,
which is the same size as traditional collector cards
and ordinary playing cards.You should sign your card either on the front or on the back. You should date your cards. If they are part of an edition, you should number them as well.
HOW TO TRADE is entirely up to you -- 1 for 1, 2 for 1.
You can trade them in person or by mail or you can make them for friends without an exchange.
