conjured up
Called into being
To conjure up is to bring something into existence or awareness, as if by magic.
The phrase suggests summoning from nothing: She conjured up a meal from whatever was in the fridge.
More often it means to evoke or call to mind: The smell conjured up memories of childhood summers.
The "up" intensifies the sense of something emerging or appearing.
