a couple of January Paper Camellia layouts

We have had a super cold week around here... today the kids are finally back at school... though we are having a late start in hopes that it warms up a degree or two, I guess!

I have a couple of layouts that were on the Paper Camellia blog this month.  This first one, I used an ombre paper to punch out some hearts and then arranged them down the side of my page from dark to light.  

And for my second layout, I gathered up bits and pieces of patterned papers and tags and filled my page with a sort of grid pattern.  I  stitched around each piece and then embellished with sticker letters and wood veneers.
