For starters, this pic does not do any justice at all to the super wonderful effect of the double embossing method. I used 5 products to make the ocean floor and it is SO COOL! Bumpy, shiny, glittery, matte, gritty, sheer--OMG! It is just dang beautiful and so thrilling to watch everything bubble up to create that lusciousness. So, no surprise that I love this technique and hope to use it again and again.
Speaking of using again and again, the background paper is another of those shave cream smoosh from how many weeks ago? The gift that keeps on giving. It called out to be the ocean background for the fun embossing.

How cool to take a piece from another technique and to be able to repurpose into your oceanic scene. All I can say that it must be absolutely glorious in person because it's pretty wonderful from your photo. I can see so many textures and colors. It looks so realistic, and I particularly love the metallic netting, as well as the sea dollar, seashell, sea ferns. This is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! That sea blue is one of my all-time favorite colors, and that in combination with a sand color plus all of the embossed colors and the metallic net, and you have a fantastic piece of art!

What a wonderful ocean floor! I'll bet the textures are incredible! Your entire card is awesome! The shaving cream is a perfect sea and the die cuts and torn sentiment all look wonderful together!
