Description:

Create two ATCs, one for each partner. The cats on the ATCs shouldn't be cartoons/childish, but they can be art/artistic, drawn, photographs, etc.

Please put your ATC in a protective sleeve (purchased or hand made) and send to your partner in a greeting card so it is protected while being mailed. Be sure to include a note with the swap name and your user name so your partner can rate you.


Helpful info for folks new to ATCs:

ATC stands for Artist Trading Card.

An ATC measures 2.5" by 3.5". You will start with a rigid base - I usually use manila file folders cut to size. They are rigid and easy to work with.

The sleeves for the cards are standard collector card sleeves. Here's an example: https://www.amazon.com/Sleeves-Pokemon-Standard-Sized-Sports-Trading/dp/B000COSA2E

@sunrising42 Is it absolutely necessary to send in a protective sleeve? I don't have any of those, but could still protect it with plastic wrap or a baggie... Would that be acceptable?

@Helena8664 - you could also fold and tape some paper around it for added protection for delivery. Basically it's just so the card is well protected during handling by the USPS. :-)
