Stumbleupon brings me something AWESOME!!

So, I've found another swap site. Swap-bot.com.

It seems to specialize in smallish swaps, which is just FINE by me!!!

I just started making ATC's (Artist Trading Cards) for folks not yet in the know. So I joined a swap for ATC's. So that should be fun!!!

I am thinking of starting a swap here too!!!

    ATC's from the wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards

    "Artist Trading Cards (or ATCs) are miniature works of art about the same size as modern baseball cards,[1] or 2 ½ X 3 ½ inches (6cm X 9cm),[2] small enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets.[3] The ATC movement developed out of the mail art movement and has its origins in Switzerland.[4] Cards are produced in various media, including dry media (pencils, pens, markers, etc), wet media (watercolor, acrylic paints, etc), paper media (in the form of collage, papercuts, found objects, etc). The cards are usually traded or exchanged rather than sold."

    For examples you can google ATC or go here http://www.artist-trading-cards.ch/
