Children's Story ATCs

Children's Story ATC Swap

An often discounted literary art form, children's stories are among some of my earliest memories and they still play an important part in my life as a nanny. Some of my favorite authors are Beatrix Potter, Margaret Wise Brown, Frank Asch.

The idea here is to produce ATCs invoking any children's book, character or story from Aesop and the Brothers Grimm to Beatrix Potter, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys to Judy Blume. National origin is not an issue; in fact the more diverse the origin the better. The only stipulation, your ATCs must identify the story, character or book you are using.

Children's picture books, primary reading textbooks (e.g. Alice and Jerry, Dick and Jane), comic strips are quite acceptable too. Vintage or current or in between or cutting edge it doesn't matter. What matters is your creativity!

This swap is a 3 for 3 swap, where you have 3 different partners, and you make 3 cards for each partner, for a total of 9 cards.

All ATC cards must be the standard size of 2.5 by 3.5 inches (how the image faces or is placed on the card doesn't matter it can be vertical or horizontal), and each card must contain your character or book.

No one rated under 4 can participate..sorry...people deserve to get something in return when the work hard on their art.
