What a beautiful home. So sad that people had to leave their homes. You inspired me to look up the history of the area. Your sentiment is perfect! Beautiful background! Great filmstrip and fantastic camera ephemera.
I love everything about this one! Gorgeous, couldn't quit looking at it and spotting more details. You work is just amazing! This time I remember to mark favorite on it - I usually forget!
I want this LO! All of it, including the photo. I love the stamping behind the filmstrip and am definitely borrowing that idea. The coloring is beautiful. Wonderful photo and the elements are to be envied (and enjoyed).
This photo dates from 1949 or 1950. Taken by my Grandparents' neighbour who decided not to leave Nikolaiken and remained in the area until his death in the early 1970s.
On the left, mostly hidden behind the trees, is my Grandparents' house. You can just about make out the balustrade of the first floor balcony - the very same one that is featured in a layout about my Mum and her older sister ("Life in 1939").
I did a bit of stencilling (with paste and distress oxide inks), stamping, colouring with brush markers and also used up some rub-ons. All the embellies are no longer available, all relics from the past, just like the photo......
Camera - image from a crafting magazine, hoarded since 2016. Black film strips - Peartree Cutfiles UK - the only relatively new item.
