When Your Flowers are TOO Extra for a Snippet Roll! (Dec 5)

[@donnakinmn1683]

I love snippet rolls. This was a great reminder and also love how your flowers turned out.

[@JoAnn4gracenotperfectionm815]

This flower snippet roll is brilliant!! I love everything you did with them. You would have laughed if you could have seen my face because when you slid the half circles together to create a flower...my mouth just dropped open. It was so awesome and simple! Thank you for this video💕🐬

[@paperplaza93]

Love the way you did these flowers. Don't stress about bulk, It's gorgeous. Some days I am gaining confidence and other days I feel like I am losing my mind! All of it has been joyous.

[@jneigler]

The belly bands are perfect in every way! Also, I remember when you made your snippet rolls with the wooden sticks from the forest. They are absolutely wonderful! Love them!

[@creativemix]

Awesome ! The tea bag one is my favorite

[@claireskey5439]

Me too! I love Barbara's tutorial on that. So now I'm saving tea bags 🤭🇦🇺💖

[@DeniseS-6867]

Pretty flowers❄💙💙

[@lenamccoy1294]

I love the flowers! They remind me of yoyos. I don’t know how to explain it but you gather the edge of a circle. People used to make dolls and quilts out of them.

[@elainedudar1952]

Another awesome make, between you and Luise you keep creating and creating the most spectacular makes. Can't wait for next week to see what you both do.

[@321diem]

Love that I’m a night owl and get to watch before morning. Loved the lead up to this years decemerember, and enjoying the series so far. Thanks for all the hard work and for sharing your talents!

[@dianajackman7213]

"Grundge up the base. Is that a musical term?" Quote of the week ❤

[@49dragonflies]

Haha 😂

[@vickicoatney3062]

Love your flowers and that you’re brave enough to try things, scaredy cat me is yelling “no” but then loving what you did.

[@procuringcraftcalm]

I share your love of the snippet roll and also share your reluctance to use them after. They look so pretty on ones workspace. 😅 lol Beautiful inspiration, Barbra! Thank-you! I wonder if ironing my cloths with my hair straightener would make me detest that chore less? Hmmmmm🤔

[@49dragonflies]

😃❤️

[@dorothykovak4900]

I love your flowers and the snippet roll. The colors really enhance the overall look. This is a very creative take on the prompt. I’m loving this series. Thank you for all the work you and Louisa have done. I hope to start making things this weekend.

[@marybethschuiteman484]

Wow, this technique for making flowers is genius! I have so much fabric and scraps, love, love this prompt.

[@heathersullivan8494]

Barbara! This snippet roll is so beautiful!! How creative. I never would have put those colors together, but it works. Absolutely gorgeous!! ❤😊

[@jimandpegzeleznik19]

I really like the flowers you made for the snippet roll. I really like the died lace! I agree that having the prompts makes it more fun & takes you out of your comfort zone!

[@JanIllingsworth]

I love this year's dephemerember. The prompts seem to suit my style and Louise's red guitar papers make great backgrounds for my ephemera. All my ephemera I am using for a themed journal called "On Red Mountain. I especially like making meaningful pieces. I liked the touch of white lace on your snippet flowers. I thought they looked fresh.. My flower was huge but I am happy to say it was flat. You can get little pearly sequins that are flat.

[@pambotter355]

Barbara, those flowers are gorgeous! I love how you made them with the sewing. The snippet roll is so beautiful. TFS! ❤

[@dbabybear]

I really like this year’s format and upload time. I journal slowly at my own pace and the one with Ephy I finished waay after (i think around June lol). This time, I started all 4 prompts during the weekend then try to add finishing touches throughout the week as I watch your videos, not sure if I can keep up with this pace as some prompts looks more challenging, but enjoying every crafting minute I get. Thank you B and L for being an inspiration.

[@fleurdeb7803]

Love how it turned out - and the song, Barbara! Very pretty flowers. Glad they flattened enough to fit in your journal. See you Monday! 💖☮🙏

[@tinahaas8457]

I enjoy that the prompts take us to new levels and ideas that we have never tried before. Sometimes I have to go into my mad scientist role while experimenting with what I have. I’m am enjoying the series with both you and Luise again this year! Thanks so much for adding joy to December!

[@49dragonflies]

Aaaaw thank YOU! 🙏🏻☺️❤️

[@JunkJournalFlavi]

Wow, Barbara, die Blumen so zu gestalten, was für eine tolle Idee. Sie sind wunderschön auch auf dem Band, sehr, sehr schön alles zusammen 🥰 Liebe Grüße Anke 🤗

[@junerobbins6871]

I've not made snippit rolls as yet. Yours are beautiful Love the stick with the feathers. Its awesome. Good idea to use the masking tape for the base. I dont recall.seeing this flower before. Thanks for showing how to make them. 😊 For the middels I'd use Tina's silk flowers that she takes apart and uses a flat back pearl for the center. They wouldnt be bulky at all. I have some very flat fabric flowers on a spool that would look good here.

[@anniegabriel5892]

Louise needs to get her threads organised in a divided box like yours!

[@SaavedraRose]

Since I do a lot of slow stitching - i love fabric snippet rolls. I like how you made the flowers; great idea.

[@nancybemis5081]

I love how the flowers were handmade from fabric. I was very surprised you used fabric! I am going to use your idea and try it out. I have been methodically going through the prompts. Trying out each of your ideas, if I like them.

[@4GraceCreations]

I love that we both pulled out our fabric snippet roll on the painted stick today!

[@49dragonflies]

🫶☺️

[@CanadaFree.6014]

I had no idea where you were going with those flowers at first until you started to pull the string lol. What a really cute idea!

[@cindycreateforlife]

Your flower snippet roll turned out beautifully, I thought, oh no, a couple times but, they are gorgeous! Very inspiring and creative prompts this year, love Dephemerember!💕🇨🇦

[@Mommyoffive4Him]

Stunning! I love the colours of those flowers....and how easy to make! Thanks for the inspiration! Off to see what Luise has in mind for this prompt!

[@PapercraftwithKay]

Fabulous as usual, Barbara. I wove some paper strips and punched flowers from those. First time making a snippet role so thankyou for the prompt so i would make one...a work in progress i think 😅

[@49dragonflies]

Wonderful ☺️❤️

[@susannewichmann7841]

Guten Morgen Barbara, ich liebe deine Blumen🤩, werden auf jeden Fall nachgebastelt. Dephemerember macht richtig Spaß, genau wie im letzten Jahr. Mein Ringbuch vom letzten Jahr liebe ich einfach! Liebe Grüße Susanne aus Kamen

[@lorijacobs7078]

I’ve only been junk journaling since July, so almost EVERYTHING is new to me. I’ve never made an altered playing card before, or used embossing powder, or made a snippet roll. (I haven’t gotten to the snippet roll yet, but I’m looking forward to it!) I have to admit, I’ve felt intimidated by each one of the prompts, but yours and Luise’s videos - and the wonderfully creative posts by other journalers on Instagram and KZbin - have inspired me and built up my confidence, and I’ve found myself creating ephemera I would never in a million years have thought of without Dephemerember!!! (And as you keep assuring us, it is getting easier and more fun every day.) Thank you so much for hosting this event. Because of it, I’m becoming a more confident and creative junk journaler, who’s grateful to be part of such a wonderful community. I’m even thinking that next year, I might be brave enough to swap journals with someone else!

[@49dragonflies]

OMG your comments makes me so happy! Thank you so much! ☺️🙏🏻❤️

[@paginator]

I’m glad you chose the page with the silver shimmer for the second belly band. I love the look of it! ❤😍 Beautiful flowers!

[@teeveenznicholson7167]

These flowers are so cute! They'd be fabulous on a JJ cover. 😁

[@vickihernandez5922]

This is my 4th year and I must say that this year has been easier for me. I love seeing all your videos and ideas. I look forward to Dephemerember.

[@ForeverLuminous]

would be a cute headband as well!

[@elzanneshepperson6729]

Can't believe first week is done already. I actually made a journal specifically for Dephemerember and used the same digitals you and Luise did. My plan is to do every prompt but because I work full time - I only have weekends to play with my junk journal stuff and the time I'm off during the holidays. I am definitely going to make these flowers ... so cute.

[@rachelpatten8889]

Those flowers are adorable. They are also made of woven fabric so it is a double fit! So pretty!

[@49dragonflies]

Ha! True! Thanks for that! 👍🏻😃❤️

[@wendycannarile7116]

I had a problem with the woven flower too but I found some burlap that I had and made a flower out of that. So fun and challenging!

[@kristenmesker8476]

I used burlap too 😊. Made a great flower

[@49dragonflies]

Wonderful! 😃❤️

[@laurabenns]

Absolutely stunning 🎉🎉 Very clever and straightforward way of making flowers, love them. Thank you 💙🤎

[@christine0nowell757]

A great start to our 1st week , fantastic and enjoyable, so loving do these x thankyou ❤

[@kristendavis2797]

Oh my gosh these flowers are so gorgeous!! Beautiful snippet roll! 😍😍😍

[@MichelleB_96]

Ooh I love your metallic thread…but diva for sure! I have similar threads and they always fight me, but are super gorgeous

[@retroqueenbeeart]

Beautiful flowers. I like the colors! ❤

[@sue_nz_kiwi2520]

Cool ideas. I love watching you both. Point of interest: If the middle of the flower is too bulky you can flatten it. On a hard surface, using a hammer, tap gently until it flattens. Sending greetings from New Zealand xx

[@49dragonflies]

Thank you! Will remember that! ☺️❤️

[@tanjablume6343]

These flowers are amazing !! I have to try this next year( I have already made my flowers) I am OK with the prompts so far, it really helped me that you released them early, so that I could start to prepare. Thank you both so much for this. I am sure it helps a lot of people find some peace & joy in these turbulent times😢💛💛

[@caroltanzi29]

Barbara: those flowers turned out very nice. I love making flowers like that. They look great on your choice of pages. Carol from California

[@sarojm893]

Super cute Barbara, love how you did those flowers. Thank you for the inspiration. Stay blessed and take care.❤

[@Crafting_Whimsy]

I’ve made a snippet with fabric today-I added flowers because of inspiration from Leigh @Leighcreates….so funny I also used fabric flowers and paper flowers on my snippet. I also sewed buttons on the back to tie the snippet roll onto the page as a belly band on both sides of one page! Your flowers are much more layered than mine but I believe I ended happy! I will post my week’s prompt video tomorrow. I have caught up so next week I will post a video every day! I love Dephemerember! Thanks so much for hosting! 😘Trish

[@49dragonflies]

So happy you are having fun! ☺️❤️

[@beverlymccall7575]

Hi Barbara, once again you've outdone yourself. Love the way you walked us through the steps of creating a snippet As I watched your process it was like a light bulb went off. Cool outcome.

[@jeannetimme7337]

Those flowers are AMAZING! I HAD to get up out of bed and at least start on them. Yep, you made me do it! LOL! I had the perfect fabric. Don't know when I'll finish them though cause I need to finish the Christmas decorating. (love your giggle - esp when you speed it up.) 💛💙💛

[@HeelK9]

It’s good for us amateurs to see professionals having issues, so all is well!

[@49dragonflies]

Haha totally. All the time! 😅😂

[@dreamcre8inspire]

I love how your flowers turned out! I really love that color combo. 💜💜💜

[@debbytowers6416]

Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous! What a great first week ❤ xxx

[@gaynortaylor3840]

Beautiful flowers, love the colour combinations and the hint of gold.

[@Kmbchan4]

Hi Barbara. What a fun and easy way to make a ruffled flower.

[@junerobbins6871]

I absolutely love your snippit rolls. They are very pretty !! I haven't made snippit rolls, but I have made 3 sizes of clusters. All i need is a long piece of coordinated strip of fabric to glue them to and roll them up😢

[@carolgefre2643]

Those flowers are so cute!! Such a wonderful idea! See you next week.

[@mom2triplets04]

So far I've been able to keep up. I've been trying to watch both videos and then combining or doing my own thing. I think the snippet roll is my favorite so far.

[@moniquelauga1324]

Coucou Barbara, j’adore ce nouveau snippet roll ! j’ai suivi ton tuto pour faire le mien avec les sachets de thé et je suis super contente du résultat. Merci pour toute cette inspiration que vous nous donnez Luise et toi , passe une bonne journée!

[@Crafting_Whimsy]

Hello Barbara, thanks so much for the explanation of how to make various snippet rolls-I love your sticks, by the way! Your tips are so helpful and they are never end! Your flowers turned out fabulous! It was the best tip of the day! You rock! 😘Trish

[@49dragonflies]

Thank you! YOU rock! 😃❤️

[@elizabethkeeling-carreau1873]

I get to watch at night as well. I just finished this at 12:24 on Thursday morning before I head to bed. I have Dreamtime to ponder how I will attempt this prompt. I love your take on the simple woven flowers Barbara. Your finished snippet roll and belly bands look amazing in your journal. 🤗🇨🇦🤗

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks so much! ☺️❤️

[@luiseheinzl]

Is this now the first prompt where we officially did the "same" thing? I think when we choose the colors for this we shared one brain 😅❤ I love your snippet roll belly band! And the technique to make those flowers is really cool! Have to try that!

[@49dragonflies]

I have not had time to see your video, but now I really need to watch it!! We did it again! 😅❤️

[@jennyroberts-day5065]

I’m loving the prompts. You, and Luise, are soooo talented. You’re both very inspiring. I need to start watching your videos before I do my prompts so I can try something new. I also got embossing liquid & powder, tried it & love it. Thank you ❤❤❤

[@kristenmesker8476]

Love this way of making flowers…now I have ideas I must try 😂

[@KateriBurnett]

Cute cute Barbara, really like how flat they came out. You did a great job😁

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks so much 😊 ❤️

[@jensartyinclinations]

Oh wow - I really love your flowers!! And brilliant that you m managed to get the gold splatters to work❤❤

[@blackcoffeeandwildflowers]

Absolutely stunning! I just love your snippet roll, I love all your snippet rolls you did such a beautiful job and your style is so lovely. You never failed to inspire! Hugs ❤️🤗

[@49dragonflies]

Aaaaw thank you! 🙏🏻❤️😊

[@prof.mommyarty]

Lol yay for not measuring😄. Oh cute way to make a flower. 😄🎶grunge up the bass, grunge it up, up up 🎶. Lol I have my locks and keys cut but also filming something else 🙈. You're a very brave Barbara and it's paid off. 👏👏👏👏 gorgeous 😍. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖

[@49dragonflies]

Thank you and have a great weekend ❤️

[@vonniepatterson6567]

Absolutely gorgeous flowers… Looks like they’re easy to make…

[@hedgerowjournals]

Yes! I have more promptfidence (Dephemerember talk) this year than in previous years 😉

[@49dragonflies]

😂👍🏻 great word and good job! 😃❤️

[@tiasjunkpaper]

Hi Barbara! I am doing the prompts but so far haven't posted anything on social media. This is my third year doing Dephemerember, and it always stretches me in such good ways. I love your snippet roll, and it inspired mine (though mine came out very different). Many thanks to you and Luise both for all the time and effort you put into this wonderful December experience. It makes me so happy!

[@49dragonflies]

Your comment MAKES ME SO HAPPY! 😃❤️

[@cindyowens6624]

Just moving and finally got to work on my craft room today. I hope to get started on prompts this weekend. Love the flowers. I always wanted to try making snippet rolls but haven’t yet

[@ChristineO-n1v]

Wenn wir nicht wüssten, dass die Dephemerember Videos schon vor einiger Zeit gedreht wurden, könnte man glauben, du warst zu lange am weihnachtlichen Punschstand 😂😂😂Ich lache immer so gerne mit dir mit. Und ich liebe deine Ideen ❤GLG von Christine

[@49dragonflies]

😅❤️

[@christine0nowell757]

Totally different to Luisa's, but equally as fantastic ❤ love both of your ideas. Amazing x

[@jeanadamsick9854]

LOVE THE FABRIC FLOWERS!!!! Do take care. USA

[@eklectikartz8002]

Love the snippet roll. So very different to what I was expecting. I am doing the prompts first and then watching you and Luisa vids and trying to do some of your techniques. Pushing myself a little bit further, you both are sooooo creative, thank you 💝💖

[@49dragonflies]

Thank YOU! 🙏🏻☺️❤️

[@belaboocreations2020]

Great snippet roll! I will definitely be having a go at making some of those flowers. I am really enjoying this year's prompts and in my video for this prompt I made a type of snippet roll I have never tried before. I love working with teabags and I remembered your teabag snippet roll. That then inspired me to see if vintage sewing pattern paper would work the same way and it does! I really love how it turned out so will need to make more so that I use the small one I made for the prompt rather than hoarding it 😂. I had intended to just make ephemera with the prompts but my first piece felt perfect as a journal topper so I ended up making a tiny journal to put it on and now I'm working in the journal. Another example of just letting the prompts take you on a creative journey 😊. Thank you to both you and Luise for all your hard work and inspiration 😊❤

[@49dragonflies]

That’s wonderful! Love how you are going with the flow! Thats the magic of Dephemerember 😃❤️

[@sandiharkin9922]

I have not tried any of the prompt. I am hoping to try some out while i make my Christmas gifts! OH how I love this flowers!

[@scrapartforfun]

I have finished my first prompt... the other three I will finish this weekend. Have posted on my new Insta. Love your snippetroll and how you made the flowers, thanks for all the inspiration.❤❤❤

[@paperpuddles]

Oh my golly, the idea of using masking tape for the base is a game changer but I'm concerned that the tape will gum up my needle. 🤔 I will most definitely try this today! ❤

[@lisagreen3778]

I love those fabric flowers…they look so easy I’m definitely going to give them a try !😊

[@kimberleymaloy1728]

Awe, i just love those flower's!! TFS 😊

[@teresacobb1760]

Greetings from snowy Montreal. Hope you are well. Having a great time with the prompts now that I've gotten over the beginner nerves! Loved my first 2 pages this week , now I have some time to work on your beautiful flower snippet roll. I appreciate all the work you & Luise have put into dephemerember. The song is sooooo amazing!.❤ Thank you & take care 😘

[@49dragonflies]

Aaaaw thank you! ❤️😊🙏🏻

[@brendaholmes4411]

You are just on fire this year! I’ve loved and tried each of your ideas so far. And they turned out wonderful. Am not on instagram to show you but I used the layered flip tag idea with original vintage family photos. Can’t wait to try this one! Thank you for a great start this week. Loving the prompts this year so much!

[@49dragonflies]

Aaaaaaaw thank you! That makes me so happy! 😃❤️

[@cheryl7476]

This project turned out beautifully. Am going to make one for my granddaughter’s dolly for a belt. Will use smaller flowers. Thanks, Barbara!

I have no idea what several of your daily "challenges" is - learning a lot here. Doing it in my pace though. Some days my fingers/arms refuse to work with me. Love it though Barbara Thank you so much❤ (trying to find Tim's fabric in Sweden)
