font: Pea Molly =====================================
I took the photos of the 3 framed swimming Seahorses at the aquarium... the extracted Seahorse is from my shells.. My Mom had gotten it somewhere... I took a photo of it and then extracted. Seahorses are my absolute favorite!!!
Anyway, font is Pea Molly and journaling reads:
"Interesting fact:
The way seahorses reproduce is very different from how the vast majority of other species procreate. When they’re ready to mate, the female seahorse will deposit her eggs into the male’s pouch, which is found in his abdomen. She can leave up to 50 eggs there. It’s up to the male to carry those eggs until they’re ready to be born.
This allows the female’s body to begin producing more eggs right away, which ensures that she’ll be able to mate again sooner rather than later in order to keep the species alive. Once the babies hatch, they’re released from the male’s abdomen. They’re fully formed babies, and every mating can result in up to 1,500 seahorses."
Such a wonderful page, Christa. I so love the creative way you have used this kit, and added the extracted seahorse. So interesting to read the facts you have included. Did you know that sea horses are monogamous and usually only have one mate for life? Sea horses are not very good swimmers either, which I find funny since they live in the ocean! Gorgeous page, my friend.
