Relax at the Beach #2 ATC

Created this Artist Trading Card ATC 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" piece of artwork using Tim Holtz Distress Inks to create the beach & sunset background. Used There She Goes By The Sea stamps. Stamped the sentiment after using the TH Distress Inks to create background. Paper pieced the chair & table. Used a cutter that hubby gave me to cut out the parts of the chair & table that scissors would not cut. Tied a piece of twine to the chair. Used stickles & Glossy accents on the drink on the table. Stamped a SeaGull and then used black thread to stitch the SeaGull. Used Kraft cardstock for base.
