I have always enjoyed making Artist Trading Cards (ATC). In the early years, I did not trade, prefering just to give these to friends. But more recently, after joining ATC groups on Facebook, I decided to trade.

ATCs, the brainchild of Swiss artist M. Vanci Stirnemann, took roots in 1997, and has quite a  global following.  The main requirement is the size that has to be 3.5 x 2.5 inches (9 x 6 cm). The rest is up to the individual artist. The card should also be signed and dated on the reverse. I only write the year.
