13 Months of Halloween Swap - #4

The 13 Months of Halloween will be a monthly swap for artist trading cards - each month there will be another theme.

YOU will make (2) cards for one partner. Please remember to put your name on the back/swapbot name is fine and please date and number the cards #1 and #2.

This month our theme is WITCHES What is an artist trading card aka ATC -

Artist trading cards, or ATCs, began in the tradition of business cards, but with a personal, artistic twist. Most ATCs are created on paper, but they may also be any other medium that can be worked in a suitable size. ATCs are traditionally the size of baseball cards and other trading cards. They're a fun way to exchange your own one-of-a-kind artistic flair with other artists you meet. You can also use them as business cards.

What is the size of an ATC -

Artist trading cards are generally 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches

What can I use to make one -

Heavy card stock or cardboard can be used its up to you to use what you use. It would be great if they were on something heavy. I normally use card stuck and cardboard on the backing of it.

Mediums - pen/pencil, markers, material, rubber stamps, etc.
