Artists Trading Cards

Artists Trading Cards? Have you ever heard of these? Well our resident trading card expert Anissa has and she does an excellent job of explaining what they are on her SCRAP-N-CRAFT-BLOG.

She explains that they are miniature works of art created on 2 1/2 X 3 1/2 inch card stock. The idea behind it is to orchestrate "Trading Session's" or just meet another ATC trader in person. Trading centers have already been established in Switzerland and Canada allwing ATC'rs in the surrounding areas to congregate and trade their own original creations with other enthusiasts. Anybody can organize their own trading session and does not necessarily have to be at an establishment designated for the sessions. People can grab a group of friends and facilitate these exchanges themselves.

These sessions are fun and informative and most of all bring together some very crafty, creative individuals with a mind to share their works of art!
