ATCs or Artist Trading Cards are small works of art that are traded (not usually for money) by anyone who wants to make them, through various online groups. The small format takes the 'cringe' (aka intimidation) out of the art concept, making it (originally) people's art for the people - small format can mean they can be quite quick to make. There is usually a theme or colour scheme to work with.
When I had a go at it, some years back, the USA had the most participants. I really loved the swaps I got from some of the UK players.
Anyway, these'll do for gift giving or just a small note to someone special. Rather funky and upbeat.
In this sheet you get two mini cards, and matching motifs to play around with. The motifs I've used as seals to close the backs of the envelopes, and to decorate other, plain envelopes. Each motif has 'Aroha' (love) written on it. The heart motif pretends to be a one cent stamp.
