Select the original layer and NOT the “Watercolor Filter”. Go to Image > Adjustments > Threshold. Name this original layer as “Threshold Effect”.

Edit the pictures (erase the background)
and cover the face of the first picture with
it.
After that, set the Blending mode to
Multiply, and merge all the water color
pictures into one layer.

Finally, add some more watercolor
splashes and add a fancy text, oriented
like what I have in this image. Now you
have an abstract watercolor design. You
can use your creativity and innovate more
on this effect. Hope you had fun in this
