Artist trading cards (ATCs) are miniature pieces of art that are traded around the world. Artists create, trade and collect art at organized "swap" events, either in person or online. The only official rule for ATCs is the size: 2.5" x 3.5". Artist Trading Cards are the same format as modern trading cards (hockey cards or baseball cards). Alternately you may choose to use a round ATC Coin of 2.5" diameter. They are self-made unique works or small series, signed and dated on the reverse by the artist/producer, exchanged and collected by the people who participate in the collaborative performance.
Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) are a conceptual art project initiated by the Swiss artist M. Vanci Stirnemann. He called it a Collaborative Cultural Performance. In 1997 he created 1200 cards by hand as part of an exhibit. On the last day, he invited others to create their own cards and trade with him during the closing reception. The movement took off, and today, there are ATC swaps in almost every major city around the world!
You can make ATCs with many different media including paper, fabric, felt, metal, wood, clay, paint, stamps, embellishments and more. There are tons of ideas and inspiration available online if you google ATC or Artist Trading Cards.
“Dianna always said she is “very thankful for each and every one of you creative farmsisters and especially for MaryJane who created this wonderful uplifting forum” and I feel the same way.”
Thank you all so much for the fun you create!
Big Hugs,
Debbie

I was getting worried you hadn't received it, YaY! I really enjoyed this ATC because I was able to find everything in one store on Trees! Redwoods in particular. Thank you for being my swap partner.
Sorry about the chocolate.
It must have set somewhere for a bit along the way.
And thanks again for being my swap partner.
Hugs and love

Darlene, thank you so much for the wonderful ATC package you sent! I absolutely loved the tour through the redwood forest and of course love the Colorado Aspens card! I apologize for being behind schedule in posting this thank you and pictures. (The package arrived on a hot day and chocolate did not make it unfortunately so that Is why it isn’t pictured.)
