Excellent Book
This book includes images that expand the definition of Artist Trading Cards and visually teach new techniques and ideas- great student reference.
It made me an ATC addict
I bought this book, not ever having heard of ATCs before. Got home, read it cover to cover, went to Yahoo and joined three swaps, and haven't slowed down since! Have made/traded dozens and will soon be hundreds. Have met kindred spirits all over the world, thanks to this book and its inspiration. I lost my bookbag that had this wonderful book in it, and promptly ordered another one. That shows how highly I regard it.
Trading card/mixed media how-to guide
Wether you're a pro or just stepping into the world of ATC's, you'll get a lot out of this book. If you're already experienced in creating ATC's you'll most likely find instructions for a technique you've never tried before. If you're new to the ATC/mixed-media/collage craft, this is a great guide.
There are numerous techniqes featured with great instructions and step by step pictures. There are lots of gorgeous examples from a wide variety of ATC pro's.
This is a book I know I'll be referring back to often as my talent and ability grows in this type of art. Besides the great instructional guide, it's fun to look at for ideas.
Creating ATCs- a good first look
This was my first ATC book and gives good ideas, guidelines, techniques. Kind of neat- a teacher from my old highschool was featured in here. I DO like how several different styles were highlighted in the book.
Bernie Berlins ATCs
Terrific book with a lot of fresh ideas. Some items are harder to find, but reasonable subsitutes can often be found...for instance Orange Goo Gone can be used in place of Gamsol in some instances. You can find a number of groups working on the challenges together and sharing their progress with this book and that's an extraordinary situation, IMO. I love it!
