Recycled Box ATCs

This is the second in my recycle, reuse, repurpose ATC swap series.

I like to recycle, reuse, and repurpose items in my art. So I thought it would be fun to make ATCs with used boxes. Look for thin cardboard boxes. Check out tissue, cereal, old gift boxes, etc. Since this is the season where many people are exchanging gifts a lot of boxes maybe coming your way. I have given a large lead-time so we will have ample time to collect just the right boxes. Embellishments are welcome, just remember the finished cards must fit into a standard trading card sleeve.

Each person will have 2 partners and send 2 ATCs to each partner. You do not have to make 4 different ATCs but please make as least 2 different ones for each person. That means you will make 4 artist trading cards and send two to each of your 2 assigned partners. And you will receive 2 from each of your 2 partners.

Any theme but a reused box must constitute at least 80% of the ATC. Only original ATCs please, no computer generate ones!

Artist trading cards are 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 inches, and should be flat enough to slide into a standard trading card sleeve.

Please be sure you can meet the mailing deadline of February 19, 2009 before you sign up for this swap.

Newbies are welcome. Please don't sign up for this one if you have a swap-bot rating lower than 4.
