Happy October! Can't believe it's almost November!!!! Yikes! Where does the time go?? Thanks again for joining in the fun ladies! Oh, email your partner for address information!
Hallllllloooooo everyone!!! It's the spooky time of the year for many!!! IF you love spider webs, spiders, ravens, pumpkin faces and the colors purple, orange, black, etc.....then these ATC's should be fun for you! The theme is spooky but not horror spooky! October Halloween ATC signup's until October 22. Partners assigned on the 23rd and mail off by 28 of October please! Have a great time creating your ONE ATC for one partner!!
For those who are new to ATC Cards here is what it's all about:
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 as well as right here on Mary Janes Farm!
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.

Thank you, Marilyn, for two festive ACEO's! I love how the dog appears to be looking around the corner to the other side. The bright colors are cheerful and speak to this wonderful season. Also, I love the message you wrote in the card about the materials you used and sentiments about Norman Rockwell and your father. This made my day!
Keep shining! Natalie
