Ideas for combining paper, metal, beads, and stickers with painting, stamping, and stenciling techniques fill this guide to making 20 artist trading cards. These small cards measure 2½ x 3½ inches (6½ x 9 cm) and, once decorated, are used to provide samples of artists' work. Collecting the cards becomes a fun way to own original art and a practical method for keeping track of fellow artists met at classes, craft fairs, or shows. Beginners will find the small scale of the pieces a good way to experiment, and experienced artists and craft workers will enjoy the challenge of assembling some miniature masterpieces.
