Notes for Photoshop Elements 14
I like to paint with Artsy Transfers, which is what I did here, creating a landscape around my daughter being videoed on a beach. I started with a neutral patterned paper (#2) from the Sea Life artplay palette for a base. Then I positioned the photo (lightly altered with the Prisma app), blended out most of the background, and extended the ocean on each side of the photo with Artsy Transfers. More Artsy Transfers gave me sand and sky. I blended in some stripes from an artsy paper (#3), and finished up the background with the chevron and purple brushwork.

For embellishment I duplicated the sea grass until I had enough stalks then blended them into the background using different blending modes and opacities. I grunged up the title by clipping a sky Artsy Transfer to it on color dodge mode.

As a last touch, I created a raised effect by duplicating the file, flattening it, cropping it, and dragging it back onto the original canvas as a new layer. I used a modest soft-edge drop shadow to make it stand out. The Multimedia Shells brought some nice color to the bottom corner.
