The Weirder, The Better! 🤪/ DEC 3/PROMPTS BRIGHT COLORS/JOURNALING CARD/

[@luiseheinzl]

bright colors - check ✅ ! The whole time I was like "nooooooooo.... don't use neon!!!" But then - as always - you turned it into a piece of harmonious art! Stunning process!

[@chiagirlmyfatcat896]

Yessss ... use neon, mix it up🤪! Be true to the junk journaling style you are developing Barbara. I have total confidence that you can turn anything into beautiful art!! I love how you are incorporating the packaging from your snacks.😁💞Jeannie

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks so much for your encouragement! ❤️

[@PMartistStudio]

Once the paint builds up on your brayer, you can peel it or soak it off in a bath of Murphy's Oil or a mix of hydrogen peroxide and dawn dish soap. You can save the skin and use it in an assemblage. Another fun video and so great to see the bags each day!

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks for the tip! ❤️

[@northernerinnc3179]

Thank you for another season of Dephemerember! Your creative talent is so great.

[@connielester1641]

Fantastic happy experiments. It’s like we get in a creative zone and ideas and supplies simply come together and WOW happens. Great pocket, great card, great colors, great stamping, great bird and GREAT CROWN❣️

[@alicethomson6342]

Your "accidents" always turn out "happy", thanks to your creative abilities!I guess the crown makes him an Emperor Penguin!

[@pambotter355]

How cool that three was the perfect shape for your little penguin! And to use the packaging for the pocket, and the Reese’s packaging for the crown. That would be fun to use the packaging from all the snacks throughout the journal. Turned out great. TFS! ❤️

[@alisonwonderland4438]

This penguin really rocks his crown and his tail feathers! In Cape Town, there is a beach called Boulders where you can swim with penguins 🐧👑✨

[@49dragonflies]

OMG that sounds amazing! 😃❤️

[@Astras-Stargate]

Love the penguin with the fluffy feathers! So cool and tnx for another cute freebie!!

[@marylackey868]

Love the crown and feathers, great color choices. Thank You for the cute freebie!♥️❣️

[@jensartyinclinations]

So lovely! Fun with the stencilling on tissue. And yes - do much pressure creating on camera into a gifted journal - lucky you are such great creative friends 😂

[@debbivaughn1313]

That whole card and page were fun and adorable! It looks like the penguin misplaced his wife's egg and is trying to help her hatch a #3.😂 Today's results were wildly imaginative!🤗🥰

[@49dragonflies]

🤣🤣🤣

[@sarojm893]

Another lovely video Barbara, the journaling card turned out beautiful, love the bright colours you used. Learning so much watching both you and Luise. Take care and stay blessed.❤

[@donnaarsenoff8399]

Of course he had to have a crown! I love it.

[@tiasjunkpaper]

Great video! You not only made an utterly charming card, but you provided useful tips about the paint on the stippling brush and taking extra prints off your gel plate, etc. I am usually hesitant to use plastic packaging on a journal, but the Reese’s package as a crown and especially the mochi package as a pocket are just perfect! Ausgezeichnet! ❤

[@bl0tt44]

what an excellent piece! after the first layer of iced spruce i saw a gorgeous hippopotamus in the top right corner xxx

[@sandikalin636]

Oh, I just knew he’d have a crown!! Love it all. I especially loved the clear pocket idea,, it all came together perfectly. ❤️❤️❤️🐧🐧

[@RedArrowTinker]

I love this journaling card! I'm following you and Luisa and learning how to use the distress inks to create those beautiful background effects. You're both such good instructors. Your color combinations worked excellently today.

[@mariaconti9704]

Dear Barbara, I just love to watch you in action and am always amazed with your final results thank you and Luise too, for all the inspiring and fun project ideas! ❤️🤗😘🥰🤩

[@Veronim78]

Great technique. Adorable penguin journaling card. Love you added the candy packaging to make a pocket.Perfect. I love this page.

[@emmkaa2099]

"The weirder the better ". Words to live by. I love your penguin king, he's very handsome indeed. Stay weird, little one. Love you, MomK ♥️🐧👑

[@karinroloff4562]

You gals are so creative....this one turned out so cute.....😻

[@emilywatts993]

I love this pocket and journalling card. The candy wrapper was a brilliant addition.

[@angelaarnold4255]

The opening in the Mochi package was perfect to see the 3. It’s like it was made for this. Well, okay. You DID make it for this. Lol. I love watching the thought process of everything that goes into the making of these prompts. 3 down!

[@bollenhutart]

Die Tasche passt sooo perfekt mit dem Guckloch ❤ Und die Krone ist zuckersüß auf dem kleinen stolzen Kerlchen ❤

[@manuelacaravane]

The idea with the pocket made of the sweets package is so genius and the penguin card is gorgeous. I love it 🐧😍!

[@martistarnes9062]

Barbara, you are amazing. The feathers and splatters were just the right addition!

[@juliemonroe105]

Barbara, what a fun project. Love that you used the candy pkg. pocket. And the crown is the crowing touch!

[@brendamyers2353]

Love this journaling card. The added crown is adorable and most definitely the “crowning achievement”.

[@ranjanirao7675]

Always amazed at your creativity and love how you used the candy wrappings in your ephemera . Maybe you can use all of them by the end.

[@trinapatterson8872]

Love it!!! So over the top you probably can’t stop looking at it

[@laurelinwainwright8650]

This is BRILLIANT and I love how perfectly the packaging and opposite page in YOUR journal work together! Meant to be ❤ what a fun, vibrant, weird, wacky and wonderful creation- love it!

[@kathytrakas2558]

Love it. The crown, the three-how much more Barbara could it get? And a perfect happy accident!

[@LisaMyEclecticLife]

Your fun journal card fits perfectly on this page and in the mochi pocket, brilliant.

[@tatyweasley]

Ohh, Merlin! I love neon colors!!! This is perfectttttt!!!! I imagine that having a journal made by someone else, is something very special! 💙

[@risamateo8003]

If you add alcohol drips to watercolor it looks similar to the oxide effect. Love the 3!! The background is fantastic

[@MonaLisa-xc5dm]

Oh, thx for the tip 👍🏻

[@cindycreateforlife]

Awesome journaling card Barbara, I love the background and watching you figure out the three, and the gorgeous orange crown for the penguin! The moochi package was the cherry on top, brilliant!💕🇨🇦

[@suebouch4074]

Super cute! It was such an interesting combination of required elements but had wonderful results using your creative twist. TFS and have a great day! See you tomorrow! 🙂

[@lynfrancis2047]

I thought you might struggle with the bright colours, but then I remembered how much you love using fluoro colours. You did it!

[@amalieweber4633]

Der kleine Kerl passt so perfekt auf die Drei und die Tasche ist genial❤❤

[@lindabenny4454]

Brilliant Barbara, I love your cheeky penguin x I'm off to see what Luise has done with it! x

[@Quel907]

What a wonderful treat :) I love your videos Barbara I hope everyone is enjoying the series as much as I have been. I cannot wait to watch Luise's video next!!!!!

[@livingauthenticallyonmyownterm]

Barbara!!! I love this little guy, and his crown is priceless! I didn’t know how you’d make both pages work together but when you brought out the candy wrapper, it was a bullseye!!! Big love 💗

[@karenlarsen3196]

Your gift of creation is amazing. Simple items and creative colors and bang !!! you have a wonderful piece of art ephemera for your journal. Could it be the sweet treat that you consume before that get you imagination going.......hmmm, maybe this is worth trying too. Thank you for all your inspirations. Hugs from MN

[@49dragonflies]

Definitely something worth trying out! 😃❤️

[@prof.mommyarty]

So cool that you now can choose different backdrops in your own craft room😁. Oh who doesn't love a penguin? SO CUTE 😍. 🙊 yummy breakfast 😋. Lol was going to say the three will print fine if you turn it 🙈. But that trick works to reverse stamped images. You even made three 3's with one in 3D 🙊. I always just use matt medium for clear gesso, saves money for other supplies lol. I love your effects with oxides, I haven't been brave enough to try it. Iced spruce is gorgeous 😍. Binders are perfect for stamps/dies/embossing folder. I'm always messing up Stencilling with impatience🙈. Oh yes, round element👏👏👏. He looks all dressed up to party! Not my colours but love it 😍 the back is gorgeous too! Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖

[@marybrown2545]

The crown is back ! 🦋

[@tracytanasiychuk8253]

Love both journals. Blessings from Canada 🇨🇦

[@RobinfromCA]

So creative. I love the way the 3 just happened to fit in the center of that wrapper! This series is so inspiring!

[@dlcalbaugh]

Your creations always turn out so perfect!! This was awesome and I like how you are using the packaging.

[@MonaLisa-xc5dm]

Hey, it was such fun watching and listening to you. I'm always speechless at how fantastically well you speak English. The card turned out so great and cute. Just sugar! What a cool idea with the bag and how well everything fits together! Good job, Barbara 🧡

[@shimah_matrix]

The prompt is so fun! 🤩You videos are always such a joy! Loved the page you created💫 all the colours are giving off so wonderful vibes

[@leslie-dg4um]

I love this page design, the colors and how you incorporated the Reeses & mochi wrappers into it, too! Good tip on the dabbing of the stipling brush when using it for stencils....I sometimes forget and end up with a smudged mess.

[@sandyfitchcorbett1782]

Very clever on using the candy wrapper for the perfect see through pocket. Love the use of out of the box materials.

[@sandrahickey3593]

Love this journalling card and the pocket you created. So cute.

[@tonyashatley5040]

So cute, love how it turned out. LOVE your pocket-how perfect!

[@Craftyalicreates]

I love it Barbara, I shy away from bright colours so I enjoyed the challenge with this prompt 💕

[@lenellamaxwell6934]

As far as "your journal" you can always say "My journal that Luize made for me." Problem solved!!! You always inspire me. 🙂

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

I bought the Tim Holtz numbers to use on my gel plate because it will end up right on the print (you WANT numbers and letters to go down mirrored on the plate). The 3 just happens to work each way. :)

[@petraskunstwerkstatt1596]

👏👏👏tolle Techniken und der Pinguin ist so witzig 👍😀

[@candaceestrada5744]

Love his crown!!

[@barbararussell2318]

Great use of the prompts to make the card. Fits perfectly!,

[@ИевлеваКатя]

Cool to see the junk element of junkjournaling in this spread

[@artpaperjoy]

Beautiful card! I never thought of using plastic packaging in a journal, that is so creative. I really need to practice using a sewing machine on paper and other materials but I'm not that experienced even using one on fabric! The stitching creates such a great contrast to the packet 💜

[@49dragonflies]

Just go for it with the sewing machine! I couldn’t do it either ☺️

[@victoriaguckian8578]

Another wonderful Journaling card finished! Love the crown and the feathers!

[@DeniseS-6867]

Hello Barbara, enjoyed watching this pretty & bright penguin come about. TFS

[@northernerinnc3179]

Colors are great--- I love the deep orange crown and the orange checks that go so well with the circle---

[@unpinnedcreative]

I have to say I have not understood the gelli plate trend... until this video! I now totally get how cool they are! Thanks Barbara, I love the way you create such awesomeness 💜

[@NatureSpiritJournals]

Ich bewundere deinen Mut so sehr, Neonfarben miteinander zu kombinieren 😊… Es sieht bei dir so einfach aus und kommt letztendlich genial raus auf der Journaling Card. 👍 Die Krone und die Federn passen so toll! Vielen Dank für dieses Video 🤗. Liebe Grüße Nicole

[@annaengberg]

Love this journaling card! So inspiring to see you work. :)

[@caroltanzi29]

Barbara: really nice creative work! Those feathers are a special touch. Carol from California

[@bettylongshore9594]

Unbelieveable how it all came together!!!! I love the colors!!!!

[@beverlystout7841]

Love the way this card turned out today & the journal is absolutely fabulous 👌 TFS!

[@831Miranda]

Very fun, I do love how you let your imagination run freely with the animals you use especially, it seems to me. Loved the 👑 !

[@sammythehamster9093]

Only the third day so journal still has new vibe. Give it more time to incorporate more of your creative energy. I'm lucky so far as I remember in my ephemera stash I have unused penguin decoupage diecut. Your videos are inspiring they are like free class in art/junk journaling. 🐧🐧🐧🐾🐼

[@jolac46]

This looks amazing. Love the result. I don’t usually work with bright colors. But I love this project.

[@carmengmartinez]

He is such a beautiful royal penguin!

[@suze2608]

So adorable!

[@Valkennestblogspot]

Love the weird pinguïn and the gelli/ stamped 3, nice to give that weirdly a chair like this😂 😘Maia

[@beccitroncone8083]

Brilliant… the feathers really finished him off… love it!

[@Dawn-fz5cu]

Oh my goodness! I love how this card turned out! 🤩 So brilliant! Thank you, thank you for all the great tips...I wouldn't even know how to begin without all your wonderful videos to reference!🥰

[@ItadakimashuU]

Love the rubbing off of paint on a kitchen towel, worked like a charm for me ❤️

[@lisamorice4701]

I love this, especially the penguin and his crown. Orange and fluoro colours are not favourites of mine usually. Your use of the mochi packaging is perfect.

[@sheilabartlett6044]

Awesome, love your #3 and the penguin! Bright colours!

[@jeannetimme7337]

SO CUTE! Love the packaging pocket, crown etc. Also, your orchid is gorgeous. 😘

[@MaureenAstrid]

He is so absolutely beautiful and cute sweetie! I love the crown and the feather 🪶 😍 it is so fun to follow your thought process and choices.

[@vickilimbocker2505]

Cuteness!! Love the 👑💕

[@vickibusybee]

Fabulous Barbara. Such a cool penguin 🐧 xx

[@beetlemela_mela]

Mega,❤️ wie deine Süßigkeiten farblich passen 🤣🤣🤣 ich glaub du bist die mit der Farbpalette kaufen gegangen 🤣🤣🤣

[@49dragonflies]

🤣🤣🤣

[@janicem4382]

The penguin journaling card so fun, I love it. Did you think about the candy packaging matching the journal card before you chose the paint?

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks! No, that’s es coincidence ☺️

[@toniscott1029]

Such a sweet card and I absolutely love penguins!

[@MysticalMisty_1]

I love when ideas evolve in to something even better!! This came out great!

[@janetvisochi-baum7572]

your journal card came out wonderful - i love the techniques you used to create it thank you Barbara xx 🤗

[@colleenlondon5605]

So much fun. Turned out awesome. Love the pocket to tie it all together.

[@LynneWilliams101]

This page left me giggling - too much fun and absolutely love the crown!!

[@kellygreen1343]

Your style has evolved so much over time. It's fun to watch.

[@tavanetaylor98]

What a fascinating process! Such a cute journaling card!💙

[@tfntexas]

Very creative! I love that stencil and how you use the leftover paint on another paper.

[@robinknutson8765]

Adorable Mr Penguin. I will name him Percy ❤️

[@49dragonflies]

☺️❤️

[@pauletteliddell2923]

Beautiful card. Loved it. He's a adorable.☺️.🤗🤗
