Hello Everybody! How are you all doing?

Welcome to my new post! It has been a long while since I’ve made an art project. I do enjoy creating them. It is something that I don’t do very often. And I plan to do some more next year.

I started this project almost a year ago. But it was too uncomfortable to work on the floor without a desk. So I stopped until I had a better workspace. And now I do. Soon I’ll start making more projects like I used to.

How did I make these bookmarks?

I took a sheet of watercolor paper. Then I cut them into strips. I colored each strip of paper with two Dylussions ink sprays. Yellow and Orange, Blue with Purple. Green and Yellow and Pink with Red. To prevent them from smudging I covered them with a fixative spray.

Next was the ribbons. So I bought a roll of white ribbon. I cut off four long strands and dyed them with the ink sprays. The colors I used were: Pink, Blue, Turquoise, and Green. They came out a bit opaque. But I don’t mind.

Then I made a small hole with a hole puncher. Through the strips, I tied the ribbons. With a corner paper puncher, I cut off the corners and made them rounded. At this point, it has been months since I last worked on the bookmarks.

I wanted to make it super cute. But I thought leaving it simple was the best choice. The only thing I did was to write a word on it. I am not good at hand- lettering yet. So I did the best I could with the words. With a detail pen and a white gel pen, I doodled around the words to make it look nice.

I wish I could have done more. I am also glad that this project is done. I was thinking of using glitter on it. But I stopped myself before I ruined it. And I don’t regret that decision. I knew there was nothing more I could do for the bookmarks.

So there you have it! A new art project post. It seems weird that I posted on a Saturday instead of yesterday. I did it on purpose. It was Christmas and I wanted to enjoy this day without thinking about posting. I now have less than a week to finish my artwork so after a day of break, I work again.

Please wish me good luck and Happy Holidays!
