History & Info: Many artist say ATC's (Artist Trading Cards) were first created and traded as recent as 1997 by Zurich artist, M.V. Stimemann; while others believe the modern ATC can be traced to business cards popular during the Impressionist Era. No matter what their origin, with the current growth in popularity of ATC's, these amazing works of art are here to stay. One steadfast rule about ATC's is size, each card must be 2.5" x 3.5". Card base is usually made of heavy cardstock or watercolor paper - but wood, fabric or metals have also been used. Signed and dated these miniatures become valuable works of art to collectors worldwide.

We have a sheet of complete directions available at the register.
