Thanks to the help in this group, I was able to complete my cement
block courtyard wall. Now comes the tricky part. I want to match the
stucco pattern of my home's exterior, but can't figure out the
finishing technique.
Does anyone know the technique to get the following stucco finish
(refer to pics below)?

I want to apply a base coat then a colored finished. I plan on using a
4x4 sheet of concrete board to practice on before trying the real
thing. Any help at this point would be appreciated since there is no
covering up mistakes at this point

You have to live with the results. Call a pro and write a check.
