It's late, I'm tired, but I'm sitting here looking at some ATCs I received in a swap (which I joined to expand my creativity), but right now I'm not feeling too creative! lol! So can anyone tell me what you do with your ATC's? Or how you use them? Have you used them on full cards?? By tomorrow, I'm sure this will feel like the dumbest thing I've ever asked/posted, but right now it just makes sense to ask! :mrgreen:
The ones I make, if I don't swap them they usually end up on cards.
The ones I receive, I display. I'd feel odd using someone else's ATC on a card I was sending.
I love to display mine on the 7Gypsies revolving holder. I also wrote an article on ATCs. You can see a picture of my ATC holder and read the article here. I hope it is helpful. They are FUN!

All the other ATC I've received are in a 8.5 x 11 plastic protector sheet made for baseball cards (ATC sized openings), which I look at periodically 'cause I like them.
I save all the ATC's I receive from others, I have a 3 ring notebook that has plastic pocket pages (like for baseball cards) and store them in it. I also use them for book marks sometimes too
I don't have or do ATCs . . . yet! I have been toying with the idea for quite some time and I'm pretty sure that I'd save them all in a collector's album for inspiration and simply to enjoy. I like the idea of using them on cardfronts, too.
I've received some incredible ATC's in swaps and have used them on the front of cards.
It's a great resource to pull from when you need a card - the ATC is ready made and generally all you need is a card front with some designer paper to complete the look.
I wanted to say that I make ATC sized samples of the Technique Junkies techniques- and I join in an on-going swap with other members of technique Junkies- it is such a wonderful way to get samples of many techinques and these little cards are like a signature of the artist...........it's a great way to learn 'perspective too.
I have a shoebox full. My intention is to make cards with them on the front and then donate the cards.

I collect them in a notebook inside baseball card plastic insert pages...I have a bunch of them. I keep the ones I trade ...to get inspired. I keep the extra ones I do in another notebook to use as RAKS.
What do you do with your ATC's?
