I enjoy making Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) and Altered Playing Cards (APCs). I thought this would be a fun swap for those that like to make both. You will only make one card, either one ATC or one APC, not both.

This is sender’s choice so you can begin designing your card once you sign up.

This video shows 52 altered playing cards to get you started on coming up with a design of your own.

I also like this Altered Playing Card video.

This video shows you how to make ATCs.

There are several great ATC examples in this video.

You can also search YouTube or Pinterest for other ideas on altered playing cards or artist trading cards.

AT LEAST ONE CORNER EXPOSING THE CARD VALUE AND SUIT NEEDS TO BE SHOWING. if making an altered playing card.

+Design can be vintage looking, humorous, bright and colorful, sassy, or any other artistic ideas you have seen.

+You may use ephemera but not required (for example Tim Holtz paper dolls)
