1950's Girl scout

I'm in full swing for the final prep for World Thinking Day. 
 I'm co hosting a scout event for 230 attendees and making a display of vintage uniforms and memorabilia including this layout of my Mother in law. 
 
I was inspired by Stick it down February single page sketch
 
and by Let's capture our memories  February color challenge
 
 
Here's my combined effort
 

close up of rub on journaling.  I didn't have much to say about my MIL scouting history as we never talked about it so I thought this captured the spirit of scouting perfectly
 
fussy cut the flowers to add the embellished swirly flower similar to the sketch. 
 I didn't wrap it around the bottom as I used a larger photo
