This is a phenomenal page! I like the lamppost, and the brick road is fantastic, along with the telephone pole and lines. You captured the old time feel wonderfully!
wow.....you are ROCKIN' these heritage pages for this album, Lauri! You're definitely right about having the ability to design for historical time periods! So cool how you set up that scene at the bottom with the stamping and sidewalk. And the telephone pole with stitched lines is brilliant! FAVE!
WOW!! Such a cool layout! Love all of the history and cool old fashioned embellies! I'm really enjoying all of the fun layouts from your ghost tour! Keep 'em coming!

absolutely STUNNING! I adore the colors and the elements you put on this LO.I don't know how you did to make this rain effect-I mean I know what you used, but it is perfect!-it seems to be in that year. very good job Lauri
WOW!!! This is great, love everything about this lo, love how you turned your bricks on their sides to make it look like the streets!!! And the wires from the light pole are great!! I too am born and raised in Washington. Great Great lo, can't wait to see the right side!!!!! Oh, love your lamp post too!!!
I just love love love this page!! It turned out fantastic. Everything about it really gives the viewer the feel of 1911. Love your creation of the powerlines to match the upper photo! This is SO going into my Faves! Love the silohette of the gentleman with the umbrella and the splashing across the page for rain! This is just a great great LO, my friend!
I love love LOVE it. And being a native, I love it anymore! With it being all black and white it has a vintage feel but also an ominous feeling without necessarily using "scarry" pieces.
Well this is the left side of my 2 page LO of Seattle in 1911, I'll start the right side tomorrow if I can which will be of Seattle down on the waterfron, the old Coleman dock in 1911. These LO's are still part of my "Ghost Adventures" album I'm making. The purpose of these pages is to transition the reader from the "Market Ghost Tour" my Mom & I took at Pike Place Market to the next tour we took called "The Last Gasp Tour" for those of you following the story line.
If you read the story I journaled of Linda Hazard then you know she was one of Seattle's firs serial killers. The Last Gasp tour I will start scrapping soon is Linda Hazzards house & sanitarium that is supposedly haunted that Mom & I went to. I caught what looks like orbs in a couple of the photos, possibly an apparition (I need to blow tat photo up bigger to be sure) and some creepy images in the windows. And I'll be journaling the stories of this nut job woman, and tell about the E.V.P.'s (Electronic Voice Phenomenom of disembodied voices) that the paranormal group caught on their investigation of this house, etc.
But aside from the ghost stories, I love stuff with history from time long ago. I think old family heritage & vintage photos is where I produce my best LO's so this page was a lot of fun to make, and though this album is on the darker side I've enjoyed making something completely different from the norm and challenging my creative imagination on a subject one just doesn't come across everyday to scrapbook. I don't even scrap Halloween stuff, so this has been fun.
Thanks for looking and for your comments. Happy Scrapping everyone! And stay tuned for the right side LO...
