What is an Artist Trading Card?
An ATC is the acronym for Artist Trading Card.
For anyone new to ATC's, it is a small piece of original work that measures 2.5" x 3.5".
There is no right or wrong way to create an ATC - you just need to stick to the
measurements and the rest is up to your imagination.
