An ATC is an artist trading card. They're fun little pieces of art that anyone can do. After my friend Joy from Joy To The Blog introduced me to Swap-bot, I got addicted. I've had a couple of people ask, so I will post a few of my ATC's here for public consumption.
I've scanned in a copy of every ATC I've made (except for the one I sent to Joy!). Some of them I'm proud of, some I'm embarassed by, but it's fun to see how I've progressed.
My very first was about me & my bi-polar/depression/anxiety disorders.
This I made for my friend Lynnette while she was going thru a tough divorce.
My first Swap-bot trade was muppet themed.
Here's a few others.
The last one I think is the prettiest one so far. My ATC's are still very simplistic, but it's fun to learn as I go. Hopefully I'll be able to get together with Joy & Diane once soon starts so they can teach me some of their mad skillz!
BTW, you should check out Diane & Joy's blogs, they both have awesome Etsy shops, tell 'em Mimi sent ya!

Thank you for the sweet shout-out Pam! My favorites are the one you made for your friend {the bee} and the last one. The Grover one is too adorable!!
