Thumbs up Artist Trading Cards

Well, it's not really a Trading Card GAME, but it does have to do with trading cards. Basically, you cut a piece of cardstock into 2.5/3.5 inches (the size of most trading cards), and you put your own art on it. It can be a collage, or just about anything... Trading is a main part of it. If you know someone else who trades them, you can trade the f2f, or through the mail. There are only a few rules to it. 1) All cards have to be original artwork, 2) All cards must be at most 2.5 with, 3.5 hight (like a regular trading card), 3) You can NOT sell them!!! You have to either trade them, or give them away.

Interesting. Is this a new concept? I'm somewhat of an artist and haven't heard of this before. (I'm mostly digital lately though).

How many different cards do you have? Do people generally put their contact info on the backs or something in case somebody wanted to buy their stuff or is this just for fun?

Well, I've made three so far (I started, and then I got sick with this flu that's been goin around). Normally, a person will put their name and the date on the back. And also, one of the cardinal rules of it is that you cannot sell your cards. If you want a more in-depth explaination, go here: Artist trading cards - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You should post some pictures of the ones you've made Valor.
I like the idea, but I know I'd never be able to just give them away, unless it was someone I knew well, and would appreciate what they were getting.
