I make them and hide them in books at the library for people to find. I also write an inspirational quote on the back. Yours are lovely and I loved your clear explanation of what you were doing and why. Very helpful.
What a wonderful idea!!!
Blessed to be a blessing you are!
How nice! How do you seal them to make sure they don’t damage the books?
You do a nice job f explaining what you are doing and why for your viewers. These are lovely.
Hi Melinda I have just found your channel. I'm 62 and never attempted anything like this. Never used water colours and can't draw....wow I am amazed at what I have achieved! Your tutorial has boosted my confidence no end! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and talent. You are bloody brilliant!! I have subscribed xx
Thank you so much! You have encouraged and inspired me! Blessings!!!!
I can’t get enough of the watercolor and ink/hatch/shading that you do!! Please please do more!!!
These are just beautiful! I love bookmarks and I’m working to improve my watercolor skills.
Such a great tutorial! Thank you for the step by step!
This video is heaven-sent! Thank you!!!!
You make it look so easy. Gonna give it a try! Thank you.
Thank you for clearly explaining how to make these beautiful flower bookmarks. I will give it a try 🙂😀🌻
Thank you so much for this video! These are beautiful and so much fun! Watercolor and ink are my favorites.
Yay! Thanks 😊
These booksmarks look amazing! TFS. ❤️🇨🇦
Ty you’re an amazing teacher. Every detail including how to make the ink pen stroke was expertly described! Thank you God bless you for sharing your skills and talents. ❤🙏
Glad it was helpful!
I sure do hope to see more from you! I too recently started using my Tombow Mono drawing pens on Watercolor paper and then inking the rest! You've inspired me to try other different flowers and colors! Please come back soon!
Thank you this is so pretty, and I definitely will make one 😆 I really wanted to make a bookmark with sunflower drawing, but didn't know how, this is really helpful
Gracias por compartir esta increible idea 😍
What a great idea to jump in with water colours and drawing. I loved the idea. Thank you.
Thank you! 😊
Sensacional. Obrigada 🙏
Muy creativa. Fácil y sencillo !!!!!!
Thanks, Melinda. This was a great tutorial and I am more confident about drawing a flower now.
That’s awesome! 😄
Loved watching your awespme way of designing yout own book marks an easy way of explaining how to draw a flower
Thank you so much!
Hi. I am new to watercolor painting and just discovered you. I love the bookmarks. And especially enjoyed the way you explained in detail the shading. I definitely will keep watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.
Wow! You REALLY can draw👍
What a fun relaxing way to spend a couple hours. And i cannot draw at all so im going to use my floral stamps. I have inktense pencils and blocks and lots of watercolor including metallics. Thank you for your inspriation. I subscribed. Cuz I get a feeling im going to enjoy your channel. Your work is easy, simple and fun. A motion. I never heard of drawing as motion. But heck yes it is. Wow
Very cute and simple thanks
Thank for the neat idea!
These are very pretty.
Thank you, you do explain things very well!
Thank you. I’m so glad!!! 😊
Thank you for a very good step by step easy to understand tutorial! You helped me make a BEAUTIFUL flower! I impressed myself! You made it so easy to follow and my flower came out great!
That’s amazing! Thank you! I’m so happy my video helped! 😊🤗
Sooo pretty!
Thank you so much for taking this step by step. I am trying to teach myself with videos--- no natural talent, but I am having fun!
Thank you for the comment and for watching my video. I hope you learned something that will help on your art journey!!! 🥰 NOTE: I think it’s a myth that you have to have “natural talent”. Most artists feel the same way you do. I think that art just takes the desire and learning. Then it comes naturally after a lot of practice. And it sounds like you are definitely on that path! 👍 Just have fun...enjoy the journey!!!
Beautiful!!
Love it!!!! Nice music, voice and great art work!!!
Thank you! 😊
Great idea, TFS! I have a ton of flower stamps, so I will just stamp onto the dried watercolours.
That works! 😊
These are great. Thank you for the tutorial.
Thanks for watching!
Keep them coming!!
Thankyouu. These look so beautiful!
Thank you!😊
Luv them. ❤️ Thank-you
Thank you Melinda! I was worried about using my micron pens on the cold press paper. I couldn’t find a signo in my stash, so I grabbed a pilot pen and quickly sketched a gerber daisy. Wow, I’m so impressed with the look and feel of the finished daisy. I’ve subscribed. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you 😊 That’s so great!
Bookmarks are great and useful. I am in the UK in lockdown and I have a 'community bookshelf' on my driveway and would love to make watercolour bookmarks with them.
Sounds great! I hope you make some!!! 🤗 I’m sure your community is grateful for your generosity in providing books to read! 👍
I love your drawing, Tks for sharing
They are beautiful thank you
I would love to see more videos from you! 😊
wow u are the best in watercolour art!!!! i love all your ideas and arts its so easy, epic and beautiful!!!!
Thank you! (Sorry for the delayed reply). I appreciate your comments! 😊
I love your art, and the multi-hued backgrounds, especially the rose and yellow (though but they're not complimentary colours, unless l'm terribly misinformed. Amazing drawing skills.
Eta, subscribed. 😍
these are so beautiful, you make it look so easy. I'm so excited to try and make some myself
Thank you!!! You can do it! 😄
Thanks for sharing. I learned a lot.
I really enjoy your tutorials and the way you explain what you are doing! Do you have more instruction on how to draw the other flowers that you did? I enjoyed following you on the gerber daisy and would love to learn more on how to draw the other flowers! Thank you for taking the time to share with us!
Just wow 😮❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!!! ☺️
Très très beau! Bravo! 👍🏻👏🏻😉😘 from Italia

Thank you! Really enjoyed watching you and learning how you make these beautiful bookmarks. I think I can do this. Spread Joy & Kindness is my motto this year and this is definitely a way to do it.
New subscriber to your channel.
Thanks again. They are absolutely beautiful. I would be happy if someone just randomly gave me one. 🌸💕☀️
Yes! 😀
Hi, I just found this video an I just happen to be learning to make bookmarks. I love your style. Thanks for sharing your talent!
Thanks so much! 😊
Stunningly beautiful...thank you for the inspiration ❤ Libby, Jeffreys Bay, South Africa
Great idea! Maybe for children's books the same thing can be done only smaller!
Thank you soooo much for the flower tutorial! A lot of people don’t explain it as well as u do! Thanks again
Wow! Thank you!!!! 🤗🤗🤗
Amazing art 😍👌
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you so much! Amazing! 😍
TFS!!
Very nice. You can sharpen scissors by cutting up some kitchen foil paper.
They are so beautiful! How do you seal them to make sure the pigment and ink don’t transfer and damage the book?
LOVE THESE. I'll be joining a sidewalk craft sale in November so I'd love to make these to sell along with some of my canvas art. How much would you sell these bookmarks for? Thanks for your time.
Thanks!!! You can check them out at my website. MelindaHowardArt.com 😍
Will it dull the colors if I laminate the bookmarks?
Beautiful! But I can't draw a stick figure let alone a flower!! Lmaoooooo
Bonjour merci pour votre partage c est sublime ont peu les plastifié apres? Merci kenavo ❤❤❤❤❤
If the paper is wonky when finished product. Can you just iron it.
LOL! My next video is on how I decided to do that! (And added Dorland was to protect them.) Coming in the next few days!
I did this in my exam
Ma'am what do you do to flatten out the painting ?
Hello, there are several ways to flatten them. I have a video where I show a quick way to flatten them by using a cool iron and covering them with a towel. You can also pre-stretch them by wetting the back and taping them down. Or use a hair dryer to dry them after using a really wet wash. Hope this helps. :-)
@@MelindaHowardArt thank you so much ma'am...I so enjoy your videos and am making cards and bookmarks.Doodling is a very interesting technique and a little addictive too
Which type of paper did you use
Please reply
Please forgive the long delay in answering you...the paper was Arches cold press watercolor paper.
I made 5 of them, thank you a lot! The color really doesn't look amazing when it is too dark hahaha gonna make it better next time.
I wish I could see you drawing the other flowers tho.
