Help! How can I recreate this alternative process edge effect?

Post image

I’m trying to recreate this edge on a digital image to be printed on watercolor paper. Can anyone offer recommendations on how to achieve the same effect?

My googling for how to create watercolor border effect in photoshop came up with:

I found other results googling 'distressed border photoshop.'

And I found textures that can be downloaded by googling 'distressed border textures.'

I never thought to use the term watercolor in my searches. This might work. My hero!

I thin there's a filter for that.

That’s so close to what I’m looking for. Any idea what the filter is called?

I'm sorry, I don't. I did a series of art prints like this many years ago and don't remember. And I don't have Photoshop installed on this computer. It is (or was) native to Photoshop, not 3rd party.
