It's The Last Craftastic Monday Link Party of 2013!

Can you believe it's the last link party of 2013?  Boy, has this year flown by!!  We've seen an amazing array of projects linked this year and despite other parties coming & going, I'm so proud Craftastic Monday is still going strong!

I hope everyone who celebrated had a lovely Christmas.  We did, despite my car deciding to take an expensive "vacation" to the mechanic & some other last minute challenges.  But we also had some wonderful crafty surprises, which I'll be sharing soon;)

And as much as I love my craft-related work & this blog, it's been nice having a break to spend time with family and get to things that always get put on the back burner.  I've been thinking about what I want to do in 2014 and will be sharing some of those hopes & ideas in the coming weeks.  

Now let's see some Craftastic picks..

Check out this delicious Caramel Apple Spiced Cider over at Scattered Thoughts of A Crafty Mom:

How cute are these fairy light fingerprint cards from Lovely and Loving?  Definitely going to do some of these next year:

The DIY Dreamer shared this fun & easy how-to for no-sew elf boot ornaments.  I love the candy print felt!

Kims Kandy Kreations showed how to make these minty hot chocolate gingerbread men using just two ingredients:

And Craft Dictator shared a good recipe for gingerbread butterscotch cookies to branch outside of the usual flavor:
