Description:
We will be creating one butterfly ATC for our partner. You can use any medium, but there has been some controversy over stickers. I have seen many beautiful ATCs that have incorporated stickers into them. So if you are using butterfly stickers please make sure the background is something that would encompass your butterflies surroundings in another medium. Everyone should have a background with the theme Butterfly in the Wild. This swap is OPEN TO ALL. Reminder: ATC backing please make sure it is sturdy and the appropriate size for an ATC is 3.5x2.5 inches Your ratings must be no 1's in the last year and no 3's in the last 3 months. I will check profiles, if there are questions I will contact you, IF you have questions you should contact me. Happy Swapping All! ATC by Lucy O 17 on flickr isn't it just gorgeous!!!

An ATC is an Artist Trading Card if you type it into the computer you can come up with several wonderful sites about them.

I've posted a picture, but you would use something sturdy to construct it on. I usually use a heavy cardstock and adhere another heavy card stock to the back of it and create from there.

ATCs are 2.5" x3.5" small works of art.

Once completed the theme is placed on the back with the artist's name (which would be you)/your email address and the date that it was made. Some people even put their signature on the back.

But check out some websites so you get the idea...hope you'll join in.
