I have not been in my craft room for several days because I have been trying to get the house decorated for Christmas. I wish I could say I have finished the decorating but I still like putting up the trees. But I do have the mantel decorated, all the beds have their Christmas quilts, the Christmas dishes have been put in the kitchen cabinets, the breakfast room Christmas tablecloth has been ironed and put on the table (it is under glass), the couch has its Christmas pillows and all the Christmas flower/lights arrangements are in place. So I'm off to a good start and I'll get those trees up tomorrow or Saturday. Said all that to say this....I have missed creating this week !!! I decided to slip in my craft room and make a tag because there are a few hours left at 25 Days of Christmas Tags. My inspiration was a tag done by Kimber McGray when Jillibean Soup was guest on day 17. I liked how Kimber used the patterned papers and turned them at an angle. Guess I better get going...those trees are not going to decorate themselves!
