Thank you!
I use packing tape to laminate bookmarks. I love this design it’s very nice for May baskets. Thank you
That is actually great idea. Never thought of that. But not sure if there is one wide enough for these and would not like it to overlap. I made them to be 7cm or almost 3in. But thank you for great suggestion. I`ll keep that in mind for maybe some thinner ones. :)
Beautiful 🌺
Watercolor painting is very beautiful.

Очень красиво😍
Hvala puno! :)
I just love this. What a great teacher you are!
Do you seal these bookmarks with anything to protect.
Please keep your tutorials coming.
Blessings to you!
Thank you so much! If it is for my personal use I do not :), but if I am giving it away or selling, I do laminate them. Otherwise, they would split at borders and get scratched and dirty over time.
NICE!
Thank you. I have handmad in Pinterest with watercolor in Lorena Damasceno are bookmarkers. Again thank you. Big help to me.
Glad it was helpful! :)
Amazing talent big like.
Thank you!
Damn😍

saludos
Thank you!
Awesome as always ,#54
Thank you!
🤗 great
Thanks 🤗
nice video
Thank you!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! You have no idea how much i needed this right now Renata! I love these - so wonderful, friendly, and i cant explain. And Its So incredibly beautiful!!!!!! I love it so much. You made my day ! THANK YOU!
edit- im so sorry to ask and hope this doesn't sound silly, but may i ask, how tall and wide are each book mark? dumb but im a bit paranoid when it comes to sizes (my washi tape is probably a different size🙄OCD)
Thank you, dear, so much! You are so awesome. And I told you, there are no silly questions. Just ask whatever. I painted them on 20 x 20cm, split into 3 bookmarks. So something around 20cm x 7cm. Thicker washi is 1,2cm and thinner 0,6cm. Hope that helps! :)
MarenaART THANK YOU so incredibly much for your thorough reply and being such a beautiful person Renata!!! Thank you!!!
😻😻👍🏻❤️
It's remarkable what a change taking off the washy tape in the end makes! So beautiful, thank you!
It is, yes. :) Thank you!
Beautiful!! New sub. 🥰
Thank you! 🤗
I used to make these using Photoshop and a print program on card stock. I used them to spread the Word of God. I put Bible passages on them and handed them out to anyone I met. It was a lovely gift and the Bible passages were comforting. You never know, someone may need someone else to care enough to give them a little gift.
Your organic ones are so much more personal. But when I did mine, I took photos of flowers or trees and used them on the bookmarks.
Joyce Joseph: Oh Joyce - what a good idea! I hand out tracts everywhere I go, and it would be so good to also give a gift like you described! I am going to do this also! I am technologically challenged, lol, but I will try to learn about using the programs you mentioned to make copies of my watercolor paintings. Love from a Christian sister! Donna
@@OneTrueWord1988 YES! Copy your organic art pieces. I had to cut up the digital art pieces I made anyway. Just copy them and cut them. I would make some for sympathy, some for illness, hard times, loss of a loved one etc. That way I could introduce Christ to someone who may not know Him and it is still a gift which can bring peace, comfort and joy. Wish I had the talent Marena has. But my talent lies within the programs of the computer. God send you His Peace.
Joyce Joseph: Thank you so much for your message and suggestions! I tried to subscribe to your channel, but recently CZcams has prevented me from doing so by clicking on the photo. Then, when I try to find a channel by name, it is nearly impossible to do so! I think it is just another way to try to keep us from connecting with other Christians. Please try to sub to me, and then I can sub you back. If you have to search by user name, mine might be easier to find. I have some excellent videos listed there which I hope will bless you! 💕
@@OneTrueWord1988 YT has been kind of squirrely any way. Here is a link to my channel. Hope it works. God bless! JJ
czcams.com/channels/wRbSFkBI882TyocBIrk_Lg.html?view_as=subscriber
Joyce Joseph: It worked! Your channel looks lovely! The videos on my channel are not made by me, but they are wonderful, non-denominational videos which I hope will bless you! 💕
Hi, love your videos! I live in a dry place, we have 10% humidity. What do you recommend to do when wetting the paper. Because to me it seems like dries pretty quietly. Thank you in advance!
Hey, you could wet both sides of the paper. It will help keeping it wet a bit longer. But generally, you need to wet it more often. Also, cotton papers can take lots more water and stay wet longer than cellulose papers. Hope that helps.
Love this. I'm so inspired to try this. What size script brush do you use?
I am really not sure about that one. It is some no name and no number brush. :) But I think it is about 1.5 inches.
Me encanta 😍
Español por favor.

Hello friend 🌷I love your videos very beautiful my friend 😍✨👌🏻👍🏻
Happy weekend 🌷... Amir
Thank you! I appreciate that. :)
Lovely bookmarks Marena! They're so soft and pretty! I think the sepia was a great addition! I'll try to do this and tag you if it comes out okay! 😊 I love the way you explain things! Do you have a floral bouquet already done? I love flowers. I'll take a look so you don't have to respond. I'll look through some of your other videos and maybe even try some! Thanks for your CZcams channel! I love it! 💕 Also, if you ever think about using US links, I'd love to help out when I need something.
Thank you so much. You are so sweet. I would love if you`d paint it and tag me (love to see it :). I do have more videos on flowers (not all with voice over) in this playlist : czcams.com/video/iWCKI2Hby_0/video.html . There is also a bouquet in basket (bit abstract as this one, you might like it), and more others. But there will be also in next couple of weeks some new ones. :)
I do have US links - the first one is Amazon.com :), and then UK and DE. And thank you a lot, Laina! That really means a lot to know. :)
How do you package these bookmarks? So that it doesn’t get ruined. Do you laminate it?
For my own use, no. Use them just as they are. But as a gift or for sale, I do laminate.
This is simple sketch sheet or canvas pad?
It`s actually a block. :) This one : amzn.to/2Ths30H

Must be a very basic and common thing to paint as I've seen another tutorial here on youtube with the result being the same. Same way of painting, same colours etc.
Thank you so much. I am so glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful painting ❤ can we have access to the reference photo? Thank you 🙏 @marenaArt
Thank you. I am not sure what exactly do you mean.
I'm not purchasing any thing!!!!!!!
Interesting comment. Was it necessary to declare that?
