USATC: Buddy Jam #1

Let's try an ATC Buddy Jam! ATC Jams are fun and a little bit of a mystery. There will be 2 artists contributing to each ATC. Here's how it works:

Artist #1 starts by making 2 identical (or close enough) ATC starter cards (ATC backgrounds). Starter cards shall have an interesting base and one or two embellishments (please, no stickers). These are not completed ATCs...yet. Add your name, mailing address, and swap info on the back of BOTH ATCs. Then send both of your starter cards to your partner (Artist #2) in protective sleeves. Artist #1 anxiously awaits the return of one completed ATC.

Artist #2 receives the starter cards from their partner. Artist #2 will now RATE ❤️ their partner for sending this swap. Artist #2 is excited to add their personal artistic touches to BOTH cards to complete the ATCs. Add your name and info to the back of both ATCs. Return ONE completed card to Artist #1 within 2 weeks of receipt and keep the other for yourself. Note: This part of the swap is on the honor system. Please be diligent.

Your materials and artistic mediums are entirely up to each artist. Please, no digital art, stickers, and limit Washi tape.

I hope you find this type of swap fun. If there's interest, I can continue hosting them. (Image is "Buddy" Holly "jamming")
