Backer Exclusive: Printable Flower Bookmarks (Patreon)
Content
These printable flower bookmarks were created to go with this tutorial and were created for my class on floral watercolor bookmarks with the St Charles Parish Library.Suggestions for Use:Graphite TransferPrinted directly onto watercolor or marker paperColor with me? How to print:
Toner/Copier Printer:
If Using Markers:
Cardstock or Bristol Paper should work well. Otherwise, you should be good to go- Copics were designed to render over toner without reactivating it, and most modern alcohol markers are following Copic's lead!
If Using Watercolor:
80 lb (student grade) watercolor paper should work just fine with a copier. If you'd like to use a heavier paper, you may need to go to a copy place, or work with a larger format printer that allows for flat lay printing.
Note: If printing on watercolor paper at a copy place, if they're having trouble printing on it, suggest the set the paper color to Ivory- the sensors seem to pick that up better.
Inkjet/Watersoluble Printer:
If using Markers:
Cardstock or Bristol should work well. You should be good to go, alcohol markers tend not to reactivate inkjet ink, as they use different solvents. If using WATERBASED markers, see if using watercolor below.
If Using Watercolor:
Water will reactivate the lineart, causing it to bleed. This includes waterbased markers. You can try adjusting the opacity to the lightest you can see or use my blueline printing technique and pencil or pencil then ink on it before coloring.
