Paint Party Friday -Bookmarks



It's Memorial Day Weekend, and it's time to snuggle up in a
cozy chair, hammock, or pool float and read a good book!
Here is a bookmark for you to print and share!
You can use these bookmarks in all of your favorite books,
So what books are you reading?

It's also Paint Party Friday....I painted the butterflies with watercolors and then used my 'paint' program to make these cute bookmarks!
You can also cut these bookmarks out and paste in your journal...I did!

Have a great day!

Very cool bookmarks, as yesterday I was using a napkin for a bookmark here on vacation.

Just finished One Thousand Gifts, and Is Heaven for Real.

Thanks...I don't have a printer here at the cabin, but will print out some when I get home.

Wonderful! Thank you, Heather. Reading in a hammock sounds just what I need right now, doesn't mean it's going to happen ;). xo

Hi Heather! I love your cute bookmarks. I am finally reading the Twilight Series. I find it cheaper to read used books so alas I rarely read books when they first come out. lol I love to read, so these will come in handy! Have a happy long weekend & PPF! Theresa

Really cute Heather! Reading "The Help" here and it looks like it's about to rain.

Love the bookmarks! They are super cute and I'll be printing them off. I've been devouring books lately and I'm currently reading THE SECRET LIVES OF DRESSES by Erin McKean (dressaday.com). I'll be reading SUMMER IN THE CITY next by Candice Bushnell. One of my favorite authors.
Have a great holiday weekend!!

Aren't you clever!! Lovely book marks! And I loved cute Molly in your previous posts! Thank you so much for your kind words on my blog I think I'm finally finding my creative mojo again! :0) I think I just needed to get back into my routine of visiting my blog friends as you all always lift my spirits and inspire me :0)

What cooool bookmarks and thanks...I adore the characters you create here on your blog...just wonderful!

Lovely bookmarks, the butterflies are so pretty! I always have a bunch of bookmarks, but when the time comes to stick on in my book I can never find them. I've been using scraps of fabric and leftover pieces of yarn because I always have plenty of those around. The main book I'm reading right now is the teen novel Fire by Kristin Cashore. I've also been reading View from A Sketchbook about Marjolein Bastin and At Home with Beatrix Potter.

Have a great weekend!

Hi Heather,
Love your bookmark..... I have just spent this last week helping 42 children make bookmarks for Mother's Day in France that is tomorrow.... we also painted and decorated wooden hearts that I stuck magnets on for the fridge and wrapped them all up in pretty paper...... what a week...

Marlene said...

wonderful bookmarks. I can only manage to read cookbooks these days. Thank you for making the bookmarks availiable.

Priti Lisa said...

How sweet of you Heather! I can never have too many book markers...last night I started a new book, ElizabethI by Margaret George. I've read a lot of books about Q Elizabeth, but I never miss reading any of Margaret's books. I hope your weekend is everything happy♥♥♥

Sweet design.
I´m reading Julia Cameron´s latest book "Faith & Will". Maybe it´s not really her latest but it is the last one they have published here in Spanish.

Very sweet bookmarks, and I love the the saying. Have a safe and wonderful Memorial weekend.
