Watercolor Background Technique

Mindy Eggen did a tutorial on her you tube channel of a watercolor background and stencil technique. I found some watercolor pieces in my stash and tried it.  You basically watercolor a background and let it dry. Then use an embossing folder and stencil to color it in.
