Because love is always a good way to start, here is my first ATC to trade. I call this "PURPLE LOVE"
Foil and velvet and a metal heart sent your way, signed and dated on the back.

Where to begin???

2008-09-07T14:31:00.000-07:00

At the beginning...my first offer to trade recently came my way and I wanted to get in on this fun collecting. I decided to start a separate blog to keep track of the trades in an orderly fashion. So here we go...

My understanding is that the card must be 2 1/2 x 3 1/2. I like them to be signed and dated, and even titled if you are imaginative. Other than that...ANYTHING goes. I have seen photo cards, drawn or painted cards, paper art cards, and of course quilted cards. I may try a little of each of those media myself and encourage the same in trades offered.
