Sonoma Country!

Ok so I've recieved my Sonoma Kit... the latest Noel Mignon goodness last week and finally was able to get a couple things done... I can't wait to play with this kit more!
Here is a layout that I did for the challenge today. We were challenged to watch a recent Project Runway episode and draw inpiration (how cool is that??).. anywho I chose the one where they were asked to use natural elements in their design... here is my take on the challenge.


Here is another layout I did that I just love, SO very typical of Makenna!! this girl talks non-stop! lol!





Well we are in full go go go mode again here, baseball starts tonight. 3 have practice and I will be running my butt off again over and over. Somehow I will get it all done and fall into bed tonight! hehe
Okay I'm off to work... have a great day everyone!

thanks for stopping by! :)

Been over to see friends, went bowling and plan a big Six Flags trip this week too! Should be fun! Oh how I miss sleeping in and just not doing squat with the kids!! :)

Here are some cards I have done for CPS in the past couple weeks! Can I just say how in love I am with this Bella Blvd. paper... I have had it in my stash forever and dug it out to play along in the recent blog crawl and it's yummy!
