Artist Trading Cards

Artist's trading cards (ATC's) are miniature works of art. The only rules that come into play are: the card must be 2 1/2 X 3 1/2 inches in size, the work must be created by you and they can only be traded not sold.

I am in a monthly ATC swap with some other artists and I love it. It really gives me time to just be creative and to work with different types of medium. The theme for this month's swap was "House's", so here were the three cards that I made:

I am looking forward to next months theme....dark & twisty! If you are interested in participating in an ATC swap, just look on line, there are many different types of swaps to get involved in! Happy trading!

I thought I would share some photo's of my studio where I design and create my jewelry.

The two pieces of artwork were designed by fellow artists and friends. The inspirational collage was created by my friend Allison. Allison is a paper artist, she designs and sells awesome cards and other great products. If you'd like to check out her website it is www.allisonpapercrafts.etsy.com She also has a blog on blogspot www.openhandcreations.blogspot.com Allison has a lot of great ideas on her blog, she is my motivator to blog!

The "Imagine Yourself Divine" was created by my friend Hillary Banachowski. Hillary is always creating new types of art from clothing to paintings to sculpture. Check out her website at www.lunachicart.shutterfly.com

Until next time, happy creating!

First blog entry

Good morning! I finally decided to start blogging to share information about my jewelry. This morning it's raining and cold out, so I decided it would be a great day to start.

I am working on my fall line of jewelry and really enjoying the fall colors. This piece is fun and colorful. I'll post more photo's as I go.
