I embossed my watercolor paper with the TH Cracked Ice EF. To me, this also looks like a piece of seaweed so I chose to add my watercolor in shades of blue and green. I happened to spy a shimmery scrap in my garbage can with streaks of color - Probably where I wiped my brush when doing something with Twinkling H2O's . . . .Die cut my seahorse & shell from that, then stamped & embossed my sentiment on a white scrap of cardstock - fussy cut and sponged with whatever color happened to be on the dauber I grabbed - maybe Milled lavender.

Oh, I really love this card. Underwater cards are a favorite of mine and don't think I did even one this year. So, now we are taking things from garbage can to work with? LOL I think I may have done that, also. Yours was perfect for the seahorse and shell. Love your folder and the colors you used in greens and blues. Beautiful card, Linda.

Love this wonderful watery background. This was a new technique for me, and I will be doing it a lot more. I have an extensive collection of embossing folders and I love learning new ways to use them.

Oh! I love that you were inspired by the trash bin! I am often inspired by something I tossed! This is so gorgeous! You really did a beautiful job with your painting! Your seahorse and sea shell are soft and sweet!
