Happy Holidays:
This past year went by so fast, and now the holiday season is just around the corner – it’s time to find the right gifts and words! Unlike gifts, kind words cost nothing, but their echoes are truly endless. Don’t forget to send your sweetest and warmest wishes to your loved ones. It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
As the New Year approach's us, we are going to take January off, and pick up the first February. I will post our next ATC January 27th.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

ATC'S (artist trading cards)
Here is some information oh how you do a ATC. (ARTIST TRADING CARDS.)
An artist trading card (or ATC for short) is a tiny, original piece of art created with the intention of swapping or trading it with another artist, not selling it. The one rule an artist trading card must adhere to is the size. An ATC must be 2.5x3.5 inches or 64x89 mm. (Why? That's the size of the original collectible sports trading cards.)
On the front of an ATC an artist creates an original work to showcase their art. It can be a one-off, part of a series, or a limited edition. On the back the artist puts their name, contact details, title of the ATC, number if it's a limited edition, and sometimes the date it was created.
Artist trading cards can be made in any medium and using any technique, whether it's painting, drawing, or collage. You are really limited only by your imagination and materials.
Who you trade with and whether you trade one of your card for one of someone else's, or think it's more valuable and want multiple cards, is up to you. You can also trade cards you've received if you don't want to keep them. The whole aim is to be creative and communicate with other people being creative.
Here's how it's going to work. I will post the theme every other Month. You have a sign up for 7 days. at the end of the seven days you will have 30 days to make these cards. There is a limit of 10 per group. When you are4 finished you are to send them to me.
Then I'll divide them up and resend them back out, I will cover the postage of the mailouts.
