My dear JJ Sista! I love you to bits!! I laughed and cried with you through this video ❤ What we have is very, very dear and special to me! You are my inspiration, my muse! ☺What I loved hearing most in this video is: "How the heck did she do this?!" 😃 So happy you couldn't figure everything out, little Ms. Holmes! 😃
Please do not apologize for your emotions. Have a deep friendship as you have with Barbara is once in a lifetime. Cherish every day of that friendship.
1:10:37 This waxed paper made me think of Ronda Winstead and how much she loved paper that made noises like this. I’ll bet she’s watching your Dephemerember videos from wherever she is now. Luise, you made me cry along with you! ❤ Both you and Barbara made such beautiful journals for each other! It was such a delight to watch both of your unboxing videos and cry with you both. Hugs!
Luise, oh my goodness! What a gorgeous journal Barbara made you! I watched her videos as she went along. But your reaction to it was priceless. It certainly came through how much you love it! What a special bind you two have with each other. TFS with us! ❤❤
Oh Luise! So emotional 🧡💚 I cannot believe your timing with this ~ tomorrow (Saturday) I am meeting my friend to swap journals (I have driven from Scotland to England, 6 hours!) and then as I check into my hotel, you and Barbara release these videos!! We are so excited ~ and this journal is the first one my friend has ever made, such an honour for me to receive it! I hope you and Barbara know how much JOY you are spreading around the world with this. Thank you 🙏🩵🤎🤍🧡💛💚
I am speechless...after watching you and Barbara create these journals and then watching this and Barbara's unveiling....it is overwhelming the power of friendship and "paper". Xo
What a heart-warming video! Yes, it made me cry. Your friendship with Barbara is so beautiful, and I love how "accidents" happen when you make journals for one another. I feel honored and blessed that you are willing to share your journal making, and your special friendship with Barbara, with all of us. (It's okay that you get emotional and that there are things you don't share -- some things are too personal for RUclips.) This video was so inspiring, I got out my supplies and made things while it was playing -- a special card with pockets, etc, for a special friend. It's not just paper -- it's paper that's been soaked in love.
Luise, you are such a remarkable person. You really care about each and every journal page and the scraps. Everything is meaningful, beautiful and comes from your heart. Thanks for sharing.
I've had smiles and tears as you and Barbara opened each others journals. We are so fortunate to be able to witness your priceless friendship for another Dephemerember. Thank you for everything you do ❤
I said to Barbara last year when she received your journal - hang on tight to this special friendship, never ever let it go! Luise and Barbara you have a wonderful relationship and I pray you never let it go! 😘😘
I love your enthusiasm for this journal. I liked watching Barbara make it for you. And I loved watching you make Barbara's. I am so glad I found the two of you. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
It is evident through your words and actions you and Barbara know how blessed you are to have such a beautiful friendship. I am so glad you both found in each other such a kindred spirit. I watched you create Barbara ‘s journal and vice versa. They were both absolutely incredible and I am sure they will bring you both creative joy for many years.
I am so pleased that the two of you have found in each other a kindred spirit through this crazy, fun, creative thing we do. Her unboxing was so similar to yours in the degree of delight the gift brought to her. She fought with tears, too. You have doubtless watched her video for yourself, by now. Barbara is a sensitive soul, and an intuitive artist, and she listens to her instincts. I agree. There are no coincidences. I'm grateful that I found you and your wonderful talent, by way of Barbara's glowing recommendation. Can't wait to see what each of you does with these journals. Thank you for sharing it with us. 🥰
Barbara has created a lovely journal of memories and friendship. She knows you well. So lovely you two have each other. By the way you have a delightful laugh.
I love how Barbara included things you say a lot. We do not always realize things we say often. Cute! I wish my best friend shared my interest in paper arts.
Oh my gosh Luise! I was going to say, “We come for the ephemera and we stay for the laughter and tears and friendship.” And just I’m thinking this, you are having a very emotional moment about friendship and then in the middle of it, you say, “I guess I need to get Picket Fence Spray” and you made me laugh out loud. I just love you and Barbara and your friendship.
Thank you, Luisa, for sharing this amazing gift with us!🎉 The best line in this video is " my brain is rotating". 😂😂😂In my brain, your funny words are accompanied with Barbara's sped-up giggle! 🤣 You two are so lucky to have each other. How awesome and enjoyable that we get to take a little peek into the joy that you share together. I cried with you.❤❤It's so good to be seen!✨️
This is the part I love the most. Watching you both go through your journals. Now I have to go back and watch all the videos of making the journals again.
Ahhhhh Luise. It’s truly touching to witness your friendship with Barbara. I know that many agree with me when I say you both bring so much joy to the JJ community. And 22 days left ❤
I can see this is such a great friendship between you two. It's wonderful to watch the videos and realize how well you know each other and really appreciate each other. You both inspire the other so much. I love it!
The whole world loves you both. Such a beautiful sweet friendship, it's is manifested in your gorgeous journals,Big hugs from Australia to you both, for all the joy you both share around the universe.
I love seeing the depth of emotion that you and Barbara bring out in each other. Because you know each other’s hearts so well, you create from your hearts with the other in mind. What an incredible blessing to have in your lives to be such amazing friends. Love you both. 🤗🇨🇦🤗
This video was so moving. Thank you for sharing your deep felt emotions with us. What a beautiful friendship you share with Barbara! So beautiful! As are the journals you created for each other.
I have watched these for a few years now. I am inspired to make my first soft junk journal and join Dephemerember. I watch your German videos, too, to see how much German I remember.
I saved watching this video for my Saturday morning quiet time with my cup of tea. What a treat! I so love how you take the time and get excited with each page.Thank you and Barbara for sharing your very special friendship and artistry with all of us. You are a blessing❤
Crying here.....I feel so touched by the sharing of a such a beautiful friendship between you two. I feel so honored be be a part of this. Junk journaling has given me such Joy as well. Thank you for all your beautiful Works between you and Barbara I watch videos way too much. Sending you hugs.
I’m a long time viewer of both of your videos and I never comment. Your friendship with Barbara is so beautiful. It’s so obvious how much you both love each other and love each other’s work. ❤️Both of your journals are beyond beautiful. I can’t wait to see the completed journals at the end of December. Thank you for sharing so openly your friendship and art with us.
Thank you for sharing this with us. On one hand, I am sad that you didn't have the luxury of going through the JJ on your own, without an audience. On the other hand, I am glad you recorded it because now you have a forever memory of your authentic reaction to this amazing journal. Thank you for sharing you with us.
It's truly an exquisite journal, Luise and Barbara. I watched every single process video on both journals and was tremendously inspired. Well done, ladies. Can't wait to see what you both do. 💖☮🙏
I watched Barbara make this journal & watching you flip through it is just so beautiful! You both thought only of the other friend as you were creating the journals! Seeing such love between friends is wonderful!!!
Thank you so much for being your own sweet self. I had tears as well because of your reactions and your deep friendship with Barbara. You both are amazing artists and, indeed, sisters. Your journal is beautiful and so is hers. I can see the love. You are blessed.
Thank you for showing up so vulnerable, thank you for everything you do and sharing your art and creativity so freely with everyone, thank you so much for BEING you! Love you so much, Luise - you are a light to the world!
Its wonderfully colorful. I love to see Dephemerember is almost here. I found a word we can all relate to. It's not in my dictionary. I had to write it on the page from a Google look up. . Pareidolia, the instinct to seek familiar forms in disordered images. To me that means in art or clouds, look for hidden pictures, the unusual forms . I always look for them. Take care, be safe. Great art to you.
Dear Luise, we love you and we laugh and cry with you. I could listen to you the whole day. I remembered when Barbara introduced you to us, that was so funny 😊 and look where you are now, this friendship was meant to be, I think ❤
A beautiful journal for you, Luise. I love how you really look at every detail on each page. I also enjoy how you analyze what she did. A heartfelt flip through for sure! You are a tender hearted person and I love that you let it out and share with all of us. Much love to you! ❤❤
I have just found #dephemerember and you and Barbara. I think what I love most about the unboxing videos is the emotional connection you each have to each other's work. The delight in the surprise is real. Can't say enough how amazing it is to see true joy in your art.
I LOVE the friendship you and Barbara share!!! I am beyond grateful that you ladies choose to share it with us ❤️ When you mentioned about a lot of circles in your journal a poem came to my head - "A circle is round It has no ends That's how long We will be friends" Thank you to both you and Barbara ❤❤❤
I loved watching both of you open each other’s journals. Now I need to rewatch the videos showing how you decorated the pages. Both journals are gorgeous. ❤
You are such a gem and inspiration to the junk journal community. I am so excited for Dephemerember. I wish I had a crafty friend like your and Barbara.
Your friendship is such a beautiful gift very few people are able to experience. I had that but sadly my friend passed away from cancer, I’m so happy to watch you and Barbara experience what I once had.
I am so touched by your and Barbara's deep and abiding friendship. It is heartwarming that you share it with us. What I especially loved about this exchange of journals is that as soon as you had the journal in your hands, it looked completely natural, as if you had made it yourself. And the same for the journal you made for Barbara - it fit her to a "T." You both know and love each other so well. A once in a lifetime connection.
What a treat watching this tonight, such friendship and crafty gorgeousness. My good friend and I are swapping in person tomorrow and just can’t wait!! Thank you so much this has been my first ever journal to make and I’ve loved every minute with all your inspiration.
Such a gorgeous journal from a beautiful friend. I love how you have to analyze each page and it's fun to know that Barbara can surprise you with her techniques. I had to laugh when in the middle of your tears (around 49:50) you said "I guess I need picket fence spray" - so random. I have already seen her unboxing video and your journal to her is just beyond words. You are both creative and talented. I love all the little personal touches you have both added - so special. It's truly such a lovely friendship you share. Loved every minute of this extra long video.
Beautiful journal for a beautiful lady , what a special friendship you have with Barbara . I always look forward to both your videos roll on Dephemerember ❤
Luise. What you and Barbara have is kismet. Your friendship was just meant to be and the fact that you get to share it with the entire community makes us so honored. We cry and laugh with you because you are both such beautiful souls, and we are so excited that you love us enough to share your talents. By the way, i had to watch both videos twice to see which one of you said "oh my goodness the most" 😂. You won hands down. 95 to Barbara's 26. 😅❤ can not wait to see the ephemera that will be going into these journals.
aww dear Luisa it is ok if you cry ,I belive Barbra with out even knowing picked up on some things as they came out in journal we can all do this but do not always know we can. Barbra had so much fun putting your journal you Both are a treasures love to come and watch you both.💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Absolutely gorgeous Journal with special meanings and memories shared. You two have such a special bond. It’s so wonderful to have that one sister /friend you can trust and who understands you. Both Journals you made for each are gorgeous. Full of texture and so pleasing to see each page to enjoy the creativity of art. Both covers are stunning also.
Luise,, when watching you both, I can see how much you both know about each other just by how you made each other’s journal. When watching Barbara make your journal I knew you would flip. It’s a really good thing for us to see the real you because we to feel the same way and cry with you even if we don’t know the whole story behind what your talking about. We don’t need to know all of it to know it touches you in a social way. I’m so excited every year when this starts I’m always waiting anxiously for the next video. I love you both your both amazing crafters/artist and I’m so glad I ran across you both years ago. I love seeing your mistakes it’s nice to know we aren’t the only one who make them. Love and Hugs to you both and may you both be blessed in the days ahead. 🫂
True friendship transcends distance and shared conversations, such meaningful things happen without even knowing it at the time, if you listen to your intuition! It is beautiful when someone touches your heart like Barbara has touched yours with ‘just paper’! Both of you enrich our lives with your friendship as much as your tutorials inspire our creativity! 💕🇨🇦
I’m so happy you and Barbara have such a great bond. I love both your styles so much. I never really thought about doing anything to Digitals before, I always just altered plain paper. You both taught me so much and for that I am blessed by your friendship. Thank you❤
I've seen the stunning journal you created for her. Now I see her creation for you. Stunning also. I love them so much because it is not only art, but pieces of your souls, how I said to Barbara. Thank you both for all these emotions and for all the work you put in everything you do. ❤❤❤
I just adore the friendship between you and Barbara. Each journal is such a treasure. You both outdid yourselves. I love both journals. I just cried during both videos because I long to have a crafty friendship like you two have where I can exchange beautiful pieces of art. You both truly admire each other and hold each other in such high esteem. It makes my heart so happy.
Luise , you are so gifted and talented💕 I pray that all the pain and hurt you have bottled up, healing will take place as you and Barbara friendship grows and strengthens thru the bond of junk journaling and new techniques are shared with each other and with us....luv you both😍
Luise!!!!!! I am only 4.4 minutes in, and DYING laughing!😂😂😂😂I had to stop, rewind and show my hubby! Freakin hilarious!!!!!!!! I didnt understand what you said in German, until “WHAT the F🎉🎉 Sh🎉🎉…and i have tears in my eyes am laughing so hard!!!!!!!!! This is great😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If ever there was a definition of friendship, the special gift of making each other junk journals, would definitely fit. The tiny journal is a challenge you will take on because I know you're capable of doing something wonderful. I love what Barbara created for you.
I love yours and Barbara´s friendship ❤ I would literally die and go to heaven if I got of of these amazing journals. There are not enough words. And I could watch for hours and go through all the feelings with you. I am tearing up and laughing along side. Love Camilla
This flip through reminded me of the video where you were opening packages of the signatures from all the JJ RUclipsrs you did the compilation with. I cried through that with you and I did the same today. I gravitated to your channel because of your energy, you humility and because your heart is the size of a small planet! You always bring me joy, even as I cry with you!❤
I love both of your journals. I love your sweet friendship with each other. I love your dear artsy-fartsy hearts and your love and humor! Can't wait to see how you each play in your precious journals! TFS🤗
Oh I’ve watched Barbara unbox her journal and now you! I love your friendship! It’s such a great relationship where you two know each other so well! I love that you both share your love with us!
That is absolutely beautiful! What a beautiful friendship you two share. I pray you always stay friends and share more special moments. Don't apologize for crying, you have a very special friendship, and it shows how much you love her.
Luise, your journal is beautiful and amazing. Barbara did a fantastic job on it. I look forward to the 15th. I love how you show your raw emotions. You two are great friends. It shows!!!!! THANK YOU for showing the journal to us. Have a wonderful night.

1:10:37 This waxed paper made me think of Ronda Winstead and how much she loved paper that made noises like this. I’ll bet she’s watching your Dephemerember videos from wherever she is now.
Luise, you made me cry along with you! ❤ Both you and Barbara made such beautiful journals for each other! It was such a delight to watch both of your unboxing videos and cry with you both. Hugs!
That's so sweet of you to remember Ronda Winstead, she was so lovely and a joy to watch oh RUclips ❤
You two are a gift to this community. ❤️❤️
Luise, oh my goodness! What a gorgeous journal Barbara made you! I watched her videos as she went along. But your reaction to it was priceless. It certainly came through how much you love it! What a special bind you two have with each other. TFS with us! ❤❤

My favorite thing in watching you guys unbox each others journals is when you try and figure out how they did something.
Thank you so much for being your own sweet self. I had tears as well because of your reactions and your deep friendship with Barbara. You both are amazing artists and, indeed, sisters. Your journal is beautiful and so is hers. I can see the love. You are blessed.

I LOVE the friendship you and Barbara share!!! I am beyond grateful that you ladies choose to share it with us ❤️
When you mentioned about a lot of circles in your journal a poem came to my head -
"A circle is round
It has no ends
That's how long
We will be friends"
Thank you to both you and Barbara ❤❤❤
Dear Luise, I love your heart! ❤ It was so special to watch you experience this journal from Barbara ❤

You both are inspiration. God bless this community of journalers.

It’s a really good thing for us to see the real you because we to feel the same way and cry with you even if we don’t know the whole story behind what your talking about. We don’t need to know all of it to know it touches you in a social way. I’m so excited every year when this starts I’m always waiting anxiously for the next video. I love you both your both amazing crafters/artist and I’m so glad I ran across you both years ago. I love seeing your mistakes it’s nice to know we aren’t the only one who make them. Love and Hugs to you both and may you both be blessed in the days ahead. 🫂
Oh, thank you so much for your wonderful words ❤️
Luisa, you have such a big sensitive heart!!!❤️
True friendship transcends distance and shared conversations, such meaningful things happen without even knowing it at the time, if you listen to your intuition! It is beautiful when someone touches your heart like Barbara has touched yours with ‘just paper’! Both of you enrich our lives with your friendship as much as your tutorials inspire our creativity! 💕🇨🇦
We’re so lucky to be able to witness the amazing friendship between 2 soulmates! 🤩🤩🤩
You and Barbara know each other so well. A beautiful friendship. Love the journal.
I’m so happy you and Barbara have such a great bond. I love both your styles so much. I never really thought about doing anything to Digitals before, I always just altered plain paper. You both taught me so much and for that I am blessed by your friendship. Thank you❤
I've seen the stunning journal you created for her. Now I see her creation for you. Stunning also. I love them so much because it is not only art, but pieces of your souls, how I said to Barbara. Thank you both for all these emotions and for all the work you put in everything you do. ❤❤❤
I just adore the friendship between you and Barbara. Each journal is such a treasure. You both outdid yourselves. I love both journals. I just cried during both videos because I long to have a crafty friendship like you two have where I can exchange beautiful pieces of art. You both truly admire each other and hold each other in such high esteem. It makes my heart so happy.
Luise , you are so gifted and talented💕 I pray that all the pain and hurt you have bottled up, healing will take place as you and Barbara friendship grows and strengthens thru the bond of junk journaling and new techniques are shared with each other and with us....luv you both😍

If ever there was a definition of friendship, the special gift of making each other junk journals, would definitely fit. The tiny journal is a challenge you will take on because I know you're capable of doing something wonderful. I love what Barbara created for you.

Oh Luise…bless your heart. I think we probably all have cried along with you.
It's so wonderful to witness such beautiful and authentic souls as you and Barbara are. Can't wait to see what you both make this year!
This flip through reminded me of the video where you were opening packages of the signatures from all the JJ RUclipsrs you did the compilation with. I cried through that with you and I did the same today.
I gravitated to your channel because of your energy, you humility and because your heart is the size of a small planet! You always bring me joy, even as I cry with you!❤
Luise, you are such a beautiful soul. May peace and joy be yours going forward. Thank you so much for sharing your life and art with us.
I love both of your journals. I love your sweet friendship with each other. I love your dear artsy-fartsy hearts and your love and humor! Can't wait to see how you each play in your precious journals! TFS🤗
