    And that's a wrap.....on another successful Dephemerember. I absolutely love this series you and Luise host together. I miss a video everyday but also understand it is easier for the two of you. I also miss the snack tasting (this has been a BIG hit for my family when we get together to try snacks from different countries)! I love the Ephy inclusion and all his antics. Thank you for putting on Dephemerember and all you do for our crafting community.

    What a ride! Some crazy prompts but they were such fun. I'm so glad I participated. Huge thanks to you, Barbara, and Luise for hosting such a wonderful series and making so many beautiful freebie printables available to us. I looked forward to all of your videos and was definitely pushed outside my "comfort zone". I loved, loved, loved making the fabric bowl which now sits in pride of place on my desk.

    I found out that my true creative calling is making cards. But I have found this out by watching your Dephemerember 2023 and have been inspired by your creativity and original ideas. I have so enjoyed both you and Luise's journal ideas, and have so enjoyed them both. Thanks for all you do. You are truly an inspiration!

    What a beautiful tribute to an icon. This page reminds me that I recently purchased a set of Frida inspired rubber stamps. This December series is so fun. I find myself on pins and needles waiting for your videos. I fell off the wagon after the first set of prompts, but plan to complete my Dephemerember journal before we welcome 2024! Thanks for sharing your crafty friendship with Luise and all of your inspired creations. Happy Crafting! byBruton/Michelle

    This series really sparks my creative energy. Not only seeing how you both interpret the prompts but the problem solving along the way is so helpful.
    I love that Luise chose you as her crush...so sweet!
    Thank you both for an amazing month of adventures. Can't wait for tomorrow. Xo, Julie

    The Dephemberember has been a welcomed source of relief to create in spite of trials this year. In spite of the lack of stolen supplies I wanted to use, it prompted me to use the creative ones I had left to join in the fun! Thanks for stretching my creativity to new heights!

    This was my first time participating with you, but I’ve been an avid viewer for all the Dephemerember events. Your first event in 2021 helped me after losing my mum. And now that I have more confidence in my work, I decided to try and even opened a new Insta account. Thank you so much for everything you do, Barbara. Your passion and love for the craft is mind blowing and so inspirational. I’ve loved joining you this year, and swapping scraps with friends. I’ve woke early each morning just to watch yours and Luise’s videos. Thank you!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

    We moved to a new town in October, and my craft supplies are still boxed up while I wait for my crafting space to be set up. I haven’t been able to participate in Dephemerember, but I love watching your videos. My hands are just itching to create, and as soon as I can I’m going to try to make a page like your very first one-the butterfly with wire antennae as page attachments. You are so brilliant, Barbara, and I love your sense of humor when things don’t go as planned. In fact, your ability to refashion accidents into art is one of the things I enjoy most about your videos.

    This was my first Dephemerember, I binged the two previous years and fell in love with the concept. I realized that I will probably be doing the prompts all year as I am disabled and can't do things as fast as I would like. I've been an artist my whole life and when I got sick I wasn't able to do it anymore. It's been 4 years and I've started to get some of my functionality back. Dephemerember has really taught me how to have patience with myself and my new way of working with my body. Plus the Dephemerember community, I joined a FB group, has been so supportive and encouraging. Thank you to you and Luise for leading these artistic endeavors ❤

    I love the prompts during Dephemerember, they give me an opportunity to try new things. Even though it’s a busy time of year, I carve out time for both videos each day as a gift to myself. My extended family enjoys seeing what I’ve created each day on Instagram, so the joy that you both give is spread far and wide.💕🧑‍🎄🎄

Thank you to you and Luise for all the hard work you put into this. I so look forward to next December for 2024 Dephemerember. I wish you the very best in everything you do. God Speed and God bless.

    This is my second year with Barbara's and Luise's Dephemerember adventure. I have learned that life is filled with so many artistic people that are not afraid to take chances. There will be mistakes made, but can easily be transformed into magical beauty. Art can bring comfort in times of sadness. I am so grateful to have found these two artistic friends to bring joy into my life. And Ephy, you were a great addition to this years Dephemerember adventure, and hope to see again ❤

    Barbara, thank you for continuing what has become one of my "Christmas Traditions" - watching the "Dephemerember Journal-Making Season" with you & Luise. Every year you and Luise come up with so many unique and fun ideas for us to try out in our journals. This year was no exception. I always learn new things by watching and trying out products and/or materials that I've never explored before. This December was incredibly busy for me, so I am grateful that you have a "playlist" for us and have given everyone the opportunity to get the freebies well into January. This will greatly help those of us who want to craft along in January to complete our journals. I, for one, really appreciate that aspect of this year's Dephemerember. Thank you for continuing this tradition. I look forward to it each year. Hugs!

    Barbara, I loved this year's DEPHEMEREMBER, it was the best one yet with introduction of Ephy and all the cute digitals and stories told during your prompts. This is my first year doing the prompts even though I'm behind. The one thing that could be improved for next year is to give Ephy a companion!! Thank you for everything you do, watching you and Luise, I'm definitely thinking outside the box and growing creatively.

    Thank you both so much for inventing Dephemerember. I’ve watched and created with you all three years. I’ve learned so much and enjoyed traveling down the junk journal road with you. As we cannot travel because of extreme health problems, I love being able to visit far away places with you. Seeing your part of the world and being able to understand the language. By watching you create and try new products I have been braver to try new things, some work, ha ha, and some need even more creativity to make them acceptable. Very few things end up in the garbage. Love the process of creating with you and Luise. Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing yourself with us.

Thank you Barbara and Luise for your hard work, dedication and lots of fun❤ oh, yes… Thank you Ephy. You are such a good friend with so much great ideas for this year Dephemerember.

    This has been an amazing series - it feels more like a University offering than UA-cam, in that I learned sooo many techniques and ideas from watching. Both yours and Luise's spontaneous and adventurous personalities added so much to the quality of this month long offering. Ephy was a sweet surprise, he grew on me! I think I might go back to watch the previous 2 years next. Thank you for all your hard word, freebies and discounts. I hope you can rest and enjoy bringing in the new year of creativity ahead. 💞💞

    Hi Barbara. I love the letters on top. Dephemerember takes me way out of my comfort zone. I have made some things that have surprised myself. Things I didn’t know I had in me. It has caused me frustration and also how to have patience. I have had to do things over and make mistakes. Something, as a perfectionist, that has driven me crazy. Dephemerember is an awesome teaching tool, and the best part is, none of us are alone . Thank you for an amazing experience. I hope we can do this again next year. ❤😊

    Dear Barbara thank you so much for the time and Joy and funny "crazyness" you put into this year's Dephemerember ! I only watched the previous editions and had the time to participate this year. It helped me forgot the uselessness that was inside me, brought me back some acomplishment feelings and made me realize how hard , even though rewarding, it is to create almost every with a prompt !... and I didn't even have to edit a UA-cam video😅
    I thought promts were a lot more challenging this year compared to the previous years but I enjoyed that there were days off to have time to work on them.
    Hope there will be another one in 2024 !!!

    I’ve watched all the videos, what great inspiration. Although I didn’t make a journal, I did make a big tag inspired by the Salvaged Birds prompt, using a vintage postcard fussy cutting the hand painted bird with real feathers. It sits on a shelf in my office and it brings me so much joy! Not just the joy of creating the tag, but the memory of going on a road-trip with my husband and finding the postcard in an antique store.

You are so creative and genuine, amazing qualities in a person.

    I think this DEPHEMEREMBER has been my favorite of the 3 years. Your interaction with little EPHY really made his come alive for me and added so much fun! You shared so many ideas. I was inspired to try several in my own personal journal. I know it's a lot of work, but thank you so much for sharing your time and talents! The breaks over the weekends was a nice idea and gave everybody a chance to catch up. On the page you did today, I especially like the little journal and the fact that you added the name of FRIDA to the page. This made "your crush" more obvious (for those that might not recognize that you were emulating her style)! I'm really going to miss these videos. Can't believe it's almost over! Hugs from Texas.

    Dephemerember has been a time that I have given myself to just sit back and relax and enjoy the amazing creativity that both you and Luise share with us. It is my "me time", the gift I gave myself this year. I always enjoy it, but giving myself permission to take this time each day and enjoy it has been very valuable for me in a very busy season of my life. Thank you so much.

    You and Louise have made this journaling experience so much fun! Love the addition of Effy! The stories that accompany each video could be made into Children’s or inspirational stories and/or books! You are both so creative!

    Watching you both brought me so much joy. Life can be challenging so it's a wonderful reminder of how crafting or JJ can bring hope and beauty into our day-to-day worlds. The way you both practiced meaning and thoughtfulness in this event was so heartwarming. I absolutely loved your storytelling 💖

    You and Luise compliment each other so well: you are more methodical, precise, measured, and Luise is more experimental, spontaneous, and daring. But you also inspire each other to be like the other sometimes and the result is genius! Thank you for sharing that genius with the rest of us! 🤗💞

    How fun this month is, how much I enjoying it, every day! How you do, what you make, how you react and how much time you put into this! It shows in everything! You are so busy, yet you take the time to admire our creations too, you even take the time to go live. Really great! And by you I mean you two, of course!
    I have been very hesitant to take a ring binder, I did, but indeed I will not do this again.
    What you guys can do is make a cover as an opening haha.
    Yes please next year also another dephemerember!!! I am addicted to this!

    I have loved each of the three Dephemerember you and Luise have done. This one has been so much fun with Ephy’s participation. I have been busy in December finishing off a junk journal for a gift but I have managed to watch all the videos. Now I am going to rewatch them all and make my Ephy journal and ephemera. Thank you for all the work you put into this and all your videos all year long. I enjoyed them all very much!

Thank you for all the work behind the scenes, I'm deeply grateful for the create escape you provide. Your generosity has no bounds. I haven't created anything with the prompts yet but I'm planning to in January. Thank you Barbara for the beautiful cozy space ❤

    This is my third Dephemerember. I enjoyed this adventure so much and I had no trouble keeping up. I really appreciated the freebies and the discounts. The papers you designed were beautiful and fun to work with. I had fun making the little Ephy and the fabric and glue container for scraps. The poem about junk journal friends was very touching. I really enjoy watching your creative process. It inspires me in my own process.

    Thank you Barbara for making me feel every emotion during Dephemerember. You’ve made me laugh. You’ve made me cry. You’ve totally kept me entertained. I’m a little sad it’s over but the great thing about your videos is that I can watch them over and over. I’m legally blind so I don’t create much but between you and Luise I am so inspired to make my own little Ephy journal throughout January. Thank you beautiful lady for being so generous to our journal world.

    I just love Dephemerember. I’ve watched all three years worth and whilst I’m not actually creating at the moment due to my circumstances I still adore watching yours and Louisa’s videos. I love the loving relationship you have and the positive support from the whole community. It’s very special and boosts me each time I watch anyone creating. I hope to be back to it soon. Thank you both for your time and for sharing your creativity with us. Xx

    Dear Barbara! Thank you for a wonderful experience. Like your other videos, the Dephemerember 2023 series is a source of inspiration, it certainly sparks the creative juices in all of us and keeps whispering to us: try something, do something, create, experience, test yourself... The best part is that you honestly say when something is not going well and bravely show your feelings. I also really like the fact that you always emphasise: you don't need to have these materials, explore with what you have. Your You Tube channel is a source of inspiration for me and I hope that one day I will have the courage to film some of my own creations. It takes real courage to expose yourself to the whole world. And you are! I wish you all the best in the coming year!
