Artist trading cards

Artist trading cards, or ATC's are how

I got started making cards.  Sorry if

I have already written about this, I 

don't remember if I did or not.

Anyway, they are 2 1/2 x 3 1/2, the

size of baseball cards and as the

name suggests, they are traded.

The group that I belong to does

lots of different kinds of trades

and  one of them is a continuous

round robin.  The one that

I'm participating in is for three

people to work on.  So I've started

3 sets of cards:

which I will send to three different

people.  They will then work on them and

send them to another player.  That player will

work on it, keep one and send the other

two to me and I will send one to player

one.  It's a lot of fun because you never

know what another artist will come 

up with.  I haven't done any trading

in quite a while and my mailbox is

so empty it echoes.  Except when bills 

arrive, but who wants those??

So hopefully I can get back into this

and have some "happy mail" to look

forward to!

I went and did blood work today

for my cholesterol.  I fasted about 7 hrs.

then noticed on the paperwork that

you are supposed to fast 10-12 hrs.

Oh, well.  It will just come back

as high again, probably, which

it probably still is anyway.  Next

time I will know.  Learn to read

the small print!!!
