Cards Galore Scrapbook Challenge

I am relatively new to scrapbooking this is my first real page (as opposed to digital page).  These are 1930s photos of my great aunt and I have made the page for her daughter.  I have left the journaling panel empty so that she can write in it as she has so many memories.  The papers are by American Crafts and the theme orf the challenge is anything goes.
