Holiday Header ;)

Quick post for the evening, only 9 days until Christmas and I thought it was time to change my blog header :)

You know me I like to multitask because my time to craft is so little these days, have to make the most of it!

This project was inspired by the following challenges...

The 12 Days of Christmas!

Life has been just NUTS lately and as you can see I have not been in blog land since October 20th! This is my longest stretch away from crafting is YEARS!!! Well I am hoping to get back to blogging for fun as life starts to settle down going into the new year. 

Here is a project I created this week for our challenge over at Addicted to Stamps and More... It is a colouring page for my children to colour and I am going to frame it and use it as a Christmas decoration in our home!
