A world-wide phenomenon, Artist Trading Cards (ATCs) are the rage among all types of creatives. With this book, readers will find a spectrum of techniques--collage, painting, metal working, stamping, and more--for making the cards and albums to store them, as well as suggestions for fostering a community of friendship and technique sharing and card trading."
Creating ATCs- a good first look This was my first ATC book and gives good ideas, guidelines, techniques. Kind of neat- a teacher from my old highschool was featured in here. I DO like how several different styles were highlighted in the book.
Bernie Berlins ATCs Terrific book with a lot of fresh ideas. Some items are harder to find, but reasonable subsitutes can often be found...for instance Orange Goo Gone can be used in place of Gamsol in some instances. You can find a number of groups working on the challenges together and sharing their progress with this book and that's an extraordinary situation, IMO. I love it!
Great book! This is one of the best "how to" craft books I have ever read. I've just gotten interested in ATCs and the instructions on different methods and history of this artform are excellent. I highly recommend this book for beginners!
Wonderful! This book contains everything you need to know to create ATC's. It explains everything from the origins of this fascinating art form to examples and instructions. It provides inspiration as well. Great book!
Impressive and Inspiring! I have only had this book in my possession for about a week and I have already made a trip to the craft store to get a few new supplies and was up until all hours of the night the last few days trying the new techniques! I have been an avid scrapbooker and paper crafter for years, but this book showed me things I have never thought of or tried before and it opened a whole new world of possibilities and inspiration for me. Not only does the author present some great techniques, but she includes gorgeous color photos and easy to follow instructions. Any paper crafter can use the ideas in this guide and make them their own!
