Description:

Let’s make Artist Trading Cards inspired by that oddball decade, the 1970s. If you are old enough to remember it, you may look back with nostalgia to the wonderfully tacky design sense that flourished then. Make a set of 3 ATCs each for 3 swap partners (9 cards in all). All media welcome. This is an international swap. Here is a definitive list if you need some inspiration: http://home.pacbell.net/joshdlc/70.html

ATC is short for Artist Trading Card. This is a great format for artists and creative people to trade their artwork. The rules are simple: 1. These cards must be 2.5� by 3.5� (the size of a baseball card). 2. They are traded but not sold. This is a free exchange of art. Pretty radical actually. 3. These are CARDS, they shouldn’t be flimsy. On the back, put your contact information. Please put your swap-bot name somewhere on the card or envelope so the receiver can thank you. You can also sign, date and add a title on the back. There are web sites and live trading session where folks exchange ATCs. You can see some of my ATCs on my favorite trading site (if you sign up, tell ‘em wackystuff sent you): http://www.atcards.com/gallery/browseimages.php?do=member&imageuser=1400
