44 COLORS and counting…………..

Our local demo group recently did an ATC swap for all the new Colors in the COLOR RENOVATION, including the 5 In colors. Ever see 44 sets of trading cards spread out all at once?  Here’s some pics:

Here are 4 of the ATC’s from the new IN COLORS:

Peach Parfait

Pear Pizzaz

Blushing Bride

Concord Crush

Check back next week to see 4 more of the new Color Renovations!

I don’t know how many of you have ever “traded” Artists Trading cards… They are small, compact, and easy to make or can be very “tedious” as the one I’m going to show you.  They were orignally started in the 1700′s as miniature portraits that were sold.  During the Impressionist age, Artists cards were traded to study each other art styles and techniques.  If you’d like to read about their history… here’s a link. They’re very interesting.  I have traded Oriental style ATC’s,  “vintage” style, and now we’ve done a 44 color Stampin’ UP! style. I will be posting all of the Color Families over the next few weeks, on Mondays… so come back and check to see the next batch!     Enjoy.
