ATC's and Inchies

What purpose do they have? Are they just for a decoration thing?

lol they dont have a purpose really.

ATC's you can trade and collect like baseball cards, but for artist/crafters Happy If you have a whole set (nine in a set) you can frame them. Or just stick them in a book so later you can look at them all and be inspired.

Inchies (1inch X 1inch squares) are kinda the same but they come in sets of 12. I like to frame sets of inchies and hang them by my craft table, but indivdual ones can be made into brooches, magnets, framed or just collected and saved Happy They are super fun and I love seeing what other come up with!

I think they are a good way to play and express yourself.They are the arty side of crafting.You can try different ideas out for bigger projects

I have accordion fold holders of ATC's on different surfaces around the house.I have inchies framed, in houses flat and hung.

I keep an old tea caddy full of ATC cards to swap and blanks.

One of my friends likes to come over and check out the "new art" when she visits.

I'm terrible at swapping inchies but I really like sharing ATC's.
