ATC Swap

Published by rainy at 12:34 am under ATCs

Last June I was invited to play along in an ATC (Artist Trading Card) Swap for the month of July. These cute little cards are 2-1/2″ X 3-1/2″, the same size as a standard baseball trading card. Here is the card that I made for the swap.

There were 10 people per group so each person made 10 ATC’s.. 9 to swap and 1 to keep for themselves.

Here are the 9 that I received! I just love them. They are so cute and fun.

    Susan, these are so cool! I have only participated in one swap w/ATCs and it was fun…it was for a stamp convention that I went to w/tons of various stamp companies being represented. I believe it was called Heirloom or something like that. Your swap cards are so cute as well!
