Description:

Let’s make ATCs featuring Freaks, Wonders and Human Curiosities! Do 3 ATCs each for 2 swap partners. All media welcome. This is an international swap. Interpret this theme how you will. We are looking for some way out, wild cards. No Happy Clowns please!

Step inside to see Siamese Twins, a Bearded Lady, the Human Pincushion, a Sword Swallowing Strongman, and a Fire Breathing Geek. Don’t miss the Freakshow Burlesque, the Mermaid Parade and the Tutu Fairy. Let the freak flag fly!

ATC is short for Artist Trading Cards. This is a format for artists and creative people to trade their artwork. The rules are simple: 1. These cards must be 2.5� by 3.5� (the size of a baseball card). 2. They are traded but not sold. This is a free exchange of art. Pretty radical actually. 3. These are CARDS, they shouldn’t be flimsy. On the back, put your contact information. Please put your swap-bot name somewhere on the card or envelope so the receiver can thank you. You can also sign, date and title your work. There are web sites and live trading session where folks exchange ATCs. You can see some of my ATCs on my favourite trading site (tell ‘em wackystuff sent you): http://www.atcards.com/gallery/browseimages.php?do=member&imageuser=1400

P.S. Sounds awesome, but I'm up to my eyeballs in xmas knitting right now. Check out the book Geek Love written by a Portland, Oregon native.

To my partners (a follow up to my email/s): Your cards are done but I want to take pics for posterity so they'll be in the mail Saturday. Thanks for being patient! I'm sorry I didn't realize the deadline would fall on finals X3
