Daddy's Little Girls - The Return of Chirper Challenge

Chirper Challenge is back!!!  Dany Poupet, a very talented scrapper from France, is now heading the design team, and there are going to be some wonderful fun challenges coming up!   Check it out!!

My DT submission for the *new* Chirper Challenge is "Daddy's Little Girls".   We were asked to use chocolate brown and pink....lovely combo.  I chose to scrap a vintage photo of my mom, grandfather, and aunt.  I love taking vintage photos and using them in modern layouts....neat feel.   I cut a large (10") flower using the button feature in Paisley.   Added a 7 1/2" circle from George...punched holes...and laced brown ribbon through it.  Added two 6 1/2" semicircles (George) and adorned the seam with an EK Success punch strip (Daisy Chain) and some ivory paper ribbon (Oriental Trading.)  Embellished the flower with more flowers (George), buttons, and butterflies (MS punch.)  The picture has Thickers photo corners added.   The journaling is computer printed on an ivory paper strip in brown...framed with more of that Daisy Chain punch.  Title is American Crafts Remarks stickers for "Daddy's" and "Little"....."girls" is Doodlebug stickers.

I've always loved this picture of my mom and aunt riding their bicycles.  I had this great teal/aqua/coral paper and loved the way it looked against the black/white picture.  Cut the flowers out of the paper and randomly pop dotted them....added rhinestones.   Tucked away some paper flowers here and there.   The coral background is torn, inked, and crinkled.  Finished everything off with some layered ribbon/trim.   what to do for the title....but there in my stash was this great metal "precious". I'm really happy with this one.
