Cute & Adorable {Basic Grey: Olivia}

I'm back today with more Basic Grey :) My largest stash based on manufacturer is definitely Basic Grey but I haven't used in any ages till just recently. I love the Olivia line and had forgotten how much until I was in search for paper for this picture. I've had this picture for over a year but wasn't sure what I wanted to have for the title & journaling...


Enter this month's journaling challenge at Birds of A Feather - to scrap a conversation. I ask my oldest daughter often if she likes being a big sister and the answer has pretty much stayed the same for the past two years. She really does love her little sister to pieces and I'm so excited to know that they have each other to grow up with! MY sister is one of my best friends :-)

This LO is also for the challenge at The Paper Variety to use polka dots!

I lifted this layout from one I saw in the My Mind's Eye April newsletter. The sketch is by Jana Eubank but the layout I lifted from is by Tamara Jensen. I tried to find a blog link for her but gave up (I admit, pretty quickly, lol).
