One of my favorite watercolor techniques is to wet the paper add lots of color then sprinkle it with course salt, I love the effect that it creates making a perfect background for this little hippocampus.
I cut out a stencil on the Cricut for the seahorse and used three Tim Holtz stencils for the other textured elements.
Sorry about my photography, I hope you can see the teeny tiny diamonds and pearls that give this image a lovely sparkle. I should have taken the photo before I put it in the frame. I don't think that this will hang around long once my granddaughter sees it.

Wow, it's a beauty! I'm fascinated by the task sequence - your project truly shows step - love the textures!
