SF18 ATC? WINNER ANNOUNCED!!!
« on: July 01, 2018, 02:27:17 PM »
In the last couple months I have seen some people start making ATCs that are actually not Artist Trading Cards, they are instead Artist Trading Coins.  I thought it sounded like something fun and different. 

My sample:  http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pid=4047#top_display_media

I believe they are supposed to be a 2.5 inch circle.  If you don’t have that size punch or die (or cup to outline and cut out) just play along with something close.

You can make them any way you wish, except please start with a base of plain card stock, not patterned paper.  And include stamping.  You may choose to make them into a card or another project, but you don’t have to.

You may combine with any project except my other challenge.

I've been intrigued by these new trading coins and will definitely join in.  I cut close to 2.5 inches--it's the best I can do.  You sample is gorgeous.  Thanks for the challenge.

I’m glad to hear it!  I feel like they just showed up a couple months ago!

I have never heard of these "coins"!  They look really cool though.  I'm anxious to play with this size and shape.  Thanks for introducing me to something new.

I played last night and made three.  I have three more backgrounds to finish. 

The one challenge to the making of coins is deciding what stamp fits nicely into the tiny 2.5 inch coin.

Here are my three:

Love your coins, Beth! 

Yes, it does require a little thought to use that small space!  You nailed it!

Just found out yesterday that one of the ladies at church who is 86 went into the hospital she has been fighting a cold and it turned into pneumonia, I wanted to send her a card so I used this challenge to make her one. I found that the inside measurements after embossing the spellbinder die is 2 1/2 inches :) My card measures 3 3/4 x 5 1/2

Connie, thanks for playing along.  That was a very clever way to get the 2.5 inches!  Thanks for sharing that.  You made a lovely card with the ATC.

I made 2 ATCs just alike so that both sides of the ornament had the same image.

If anyone is still working on this, your entry will count as long as it is added before I look in the morning.  I’m not a night owl, but I know other people are!
