Welcome to the world of Artist Trading Cards!

"individual art miniatures which pass hand to hand."(wikipedia)

The atc "official" web site says:

"the ARTIST TRADING CARD is basically a variation of the well-known trading cards one can buy - same size (64 x 89 millimeters / 2 ½ x 3 ½ inch).
but it differs in the way it is produced : it is either an original or a very small edition. they are miniature works of art. one can make single cards or small editions. on the back of the card is the signature, the date and the number (if the card is part of an edition). all techniques and materials are allowed.

WHAT TYPES OF ART ARE ACCEPTED?
all types of art are accepted, all techniques (paintings, drawings, collages, photographs, rubberstamp works, mixed media, found images, assemblages, etc.). only rule is the size: 64 x 89 mm or 2 ½ x 3 ½ inches.
there is no limit to the number of cards you can make or send us to trade for you."
