http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards This is What Wiki says about the ATC's.

Here are some ideas. http://www.atcsforall.com/ there are no end of possibilities. You can search them out on the Internet or just make up your own.

They are 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" in size and you can buy them precut in every type of paper or you can cut your own.

We will take the first 12 people who want to join us.

This is a great project for me to wrangle as I have to send them out from Canada and our postage is much higher so this will be an inexpensive project.

If you are in please sign up and I will send you my address to send them to.

Deadline of July 11. You will only need to include $2 (and American is fine) in your envelope as they won't be to bad to send out. Unless you add heavy items to your cards, in which case $5-$10 would be appreciated.

I am looking forward to everyone's creativity.

This sounds interesting! I've added those that said something so far, but I have a question. Maybe I'm missing something but how does higher postage make for a less expensive project? I would think it would be more so, no?

*confused*

I'm in either way, though.

The A.T.C. sounds very interesting to me! However, I've checked out several sites and I'm finding that most cards are 'flat', really 'flat'. I'm thinking that I might have a little bit of depth to the idea I have. Also, would it be okay to make the same card design 12 times?

Because it is such a small project the postage will be less even though Canada has more expensive postage. it will only cost me about $1-$2 postage to send them back out to everyone because it will just be an envelope.

Clear as mud now??

Hi sis,
Depth is just fine, all I ask is you send at least $5 postage to make up for it. And yes 12 of the same is just fine as they are going to 12 different people.

Join us!!

maryam · 06-04-2013, 08:13 PM

I'd like to do this one, please. I take it US funds are okay?

sis · 06-04-2013, 09:49 PM

Ok, I'm in ...... I'll be working on my 'stuff' over the next few weeks and bring it from China (this gives a whole new meaning to 'Made in China'!). I arrive in Winnipeg on July 4th but won't be coherent enough to get to the post office until the following Monday(its a time change thang! lolol). The up side is that I will be able to receive my goodies while I'm in Canada providing they arrive before August 15th! And, yes, I will send extra postage.

Yes, no problem at all. I need singles for an event in August so it will work out. We don't have dollar bills, the smallest bill we have is a five.

Just to clarify, we make 11 cards each, right? Because we don't need to make one for ourself.
