SF Bay Area Artist Trading Cards Meetup Group

This is a group for discussing, making, sharing, and trading Artist Trading Cards. We welcome anyone who wants to have fun creating these miniatures. The only two rules are that they measure 3-1/2" by 2-1/2" (the size of a playing card) and are never sold but either given away or traded.

We are happy to have a home at the Frank Bette Center for the Arts in Alameda(http://www.frankb... ).
