Artist Trading Cards	A Collaborative Cultural Experience - ARTIST TRADING CARDS are a variation of the popular mass-produced trading cards. The difference is rather than buying them, you make them.

Any media, from pencil, paint and photography, to collage, mixed media, and 3-D materials, for this form of art, anything goes!
