Beautiful!! I love the shaker film strip so much - and your story telling element always makes your videos so much fun!! ❤❤❤

[@sarojm893]

Beautiful song Barbara, when I first heard it it gave me goosebumps. You and Luise have outdid yourselves in creating a song that says it all about your creating and the community that follow you both. Stunning photo frames Barbara and the story behind them is awesome. I find it amazing that the finished piece of artwork always finds the right spot in the journal. Thank you both for doing this for us yet again. Take care and stay blessed.❤

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks so much! ☺️❤️

[@khallo151]

I’ve been watching past years all November to get my brain in the mood and I’m feeling great about this year ❤

[@andreameyskens2728]

How cute! Very inspiring ❤ Love your beautiful craft- community- song!!;✨🙌🏼✨ 😘😘

[@toniscott1029]

This is amazing! I love what you did and I love the song! Who knew there could be such a beautiful song about Dephemerember? 😊

[@janillingsworth5347]

I couldn't find film strips, but what I did find was some proof strips from the 1970s when I was modeling. They are perfect for my ,On Red Mountain" , dephemerember journal I have made. I have not stitched the signatures in because I find it easier to work with free from the cover. I love your story of the three girls. I am so happy getting back into journalling again after three months of focusing on stitching.. Arohanui from me in Aotearoa New Zealand ❤

[@ChristineO-n1v]

So eine süße Idee liebe Barbara ❤ shake your journal baby shake it 😂😂😂 Mit dem Song habt ihr euch sehr viel Mühe gemacht und schöne Gedanken nieder geschrieben - Gratulation und GLG von Christine PS: Ganz lieben Dank für deine freebies, die helfen mir sehr, da ich keine Filmnegativ Stanze habe. Ich freu mich sehr. 😘😘

[@49dragonflies]

Vielen Dank und sehr gerne! ☺️❤️

[@bridgetjones8339]

So neat. I never would’ve thought of making that a shaker element. Such a nice touch.😊

[@valorimendrala1912]

I love the Dephemerember song! Your project was fantastic as well Barbara. Thank you

[@Veronim78]

Fantastic project. Love you made the little pictures into a shaker film strip. Perfect. I love it. Love the other project equally. Gorgeous 👍🏻👍🏻

[@ReneLynn-2024]

I admit I heard the song first on Luises video and was taken aback when I realized it was about Dephemerember! So cool. Absolutely love it. Thank you for doing that.

[@marshathome7282]

These are amazing! I love those ideas! The song brings tears to my eyes too…..you two did good 😀

[@cbarens1]

[@utpre89]

Sind die beiden Prompts schön geworden, einfach toll, bin ganz verliebt und absolut inspiriert. Vielen Dank liebe Barbara, fürs Freebie und die Idee deines Tags werde ich zur einer Geburtstagskarte umfunktionieren, für die ich dank dir nun endlich eine Idee bekommen habe.❤

[@Bstmimi]

I luv the song! I’ve been apart of a few communities but none compare to THIS JJ community. Like you, I was caught off guard at how emotional the song made me. It’s nice to be with like-minded creatives ❤. I luv both the film strip and layered tag project you did! Thanks for the idea 🙌🏾

[@nickytheblackdog4859]

I love the story you made up on the spot about the 3 sisters and their friends and family--so creative!!

[@carriecorbin1502]

The song made me tear up today. I absolutely love it. I also love your shaker film strip and film strip tag is gorgeous. ❤

[@pambotter355]

Barbara, I so connected with this video because my Grandma’s name was Clara and her mother, my Great Grandma’s name was Margaret. And Great Grandma Margaret passed away in 1947. These names and stories touched my heart. I don’t have memories of Grandma Margaret of course but I have lots of pictures of both especially around that time period. Thanks for sparking those memories for me. Absolutely love what you did with the prompts and how they both turned out. The tuck spot and tag. Gorgeous! Love the song too, it’s beautiful! TFS! ❤

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks so much! Maybe you can imagine how your great grandmother was ☺️❤️

[@kristenmesker8476]

Love the stories you weave around your designs. How fun that y’all have a song!

[@prof.mommyarty]

I LOVE your song, it's fun isn't it? And addictive! Aww story time😁. I always forget to congratulate myself🙈. I love both your giant and tiny paperclips😍. So gorgeous sweetie 😍. I usually prefer black and white photos but the coloured ones are my favourite today. Btw your 'panda kisses' look very cute in their Christmas hats 🙊. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖

[@susanmorales8675]

I love this one so much that I watched it twice. The little girls just spoke to my heart. It really felt like you were honoring this family even though they weren’t real. Thank you, Barbara.

[@eutychianonn2174]
