December Artist Trading Card Swap

Artist Trading Cards from our bird theme swap

Hi arty dudes and dudettes,
Last Thursday we hosted Altered Book Club and this month we did something a little different by including an Artist Trading Card Swap.  The resulting cards that each participant bought are fantastic!  Artist Trading Cards really are mini masterpieces.

Bird ATC details

Our theme was Birds and the interpretations were many and varied.  From Dodo's to birdcages, music and feathers.  Thank you to everyone involved!

Bird Theme ATC by Kathleen

It was such an enjoyable evening we have decided to do another Artist Trading Card Swap for December.  You are invited to join in.  The upcoming theme is Storybook.  Interpret any way you wish... From Harry Potter to Dr Suess, Wizard of Oz to Thomas the Tank Engine - it's up to you how you represent the theme in your Artist Trading Cards.  The main criteria is the size.  2 1/2" x 3 1/2" and don't forget to include your series title and personal details on the reverse.

Details of the swap on the reverse of my ATC

The due date for this swap is Thursday 15th December.  With the Altered Book Club meeting for exchange at 6.30pm.  Please make 12 or so cards to exchange.

With the various Fireworks displays that have been happening (and upcoming for those in the Albany area) we have been getting a few fireworks layout requests.  Check out this great page by Leanne as Tracy takes a break this Thursday.  I really love the dimensional rockets!

Come along and create this page. Two portrait orientation 4"x6" photos are recommended for this page or two landscape 4"x6" photos.

Leanne is a primo baker so there is bound to be some home baking too!

With a 10yr old daughter when someone mentions Fireworks its not surprising the first thing I think of is Katy Perry.  My girl makes good use of the 'repeat' button!
