CALGON, TAKE ME AWAY!! 0H how I longed for a vacation this summer but never got one due to responsibilities and renovations! How about you? Did you get your summer vaca? Well if ya didn't how about going on a virtual vacation just before the summer ends??
For our ATC swap this month we are going to create the rounds, 2 1/2 by 3ish sizes and create our dream vacation landscape. Ohhh, ahhh you say? Yea, me too! I've already been overthinking all the places STILL on my bucket list to visit and which shall I puck?
Have fun creating these in any medium. Questions? Just shoot me an email.
Last day August 11th, partners August 12th, mailoff by August 15th. Can't wait to see the wonderful places you choose for your virtual destination farmsisters!!

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.

I am very thankful for each and every one of you creative farmsisters and especially for MaryJane who created this wonderful uplifting forum

I'm up for this. I've never made a round ATC so this is something new and exciting.

Hey Judith!! These round atc's are fun. They are called 'couns' and usually about 2.75 in diameter but I'm allowing up to 3 so others can get their designs on them. I'm so happy you joined!! Thank you!!

I have a question for y’all. On the internet they show crocheted artist trading cards but not patterns, does anyone have patterns you would share. Just curious and thought I would try my hand at one.
Thank you.

Big Hugs,

What a neat theme. I am a bit confused, 2.5" or 3", which should I use? I see both measurements.

Debbie -- I have never seen a crocheted ATC. Lots of fabric but no crochet or knitting. I guess you could make up your own pattern if you can't find one on line.

Terri -- I think anything between 2.5 and 3.0 would be fine. I cut mine 2.5 since I used one of my cards and that's the width they are.

Thank you Judith, yes, Terri. 2.5 is the correct diameter for the ATC rounds or 'coins' as they are referred to. :) I'm sorry to be confusing.

I have it all finished.

Yay!
