Stuck with this project.

Hell guys So i'm learning html+ccs.

So I am making a project but I am stuck. Something with my header:

This is what i need to get:

Couple of thinks that i tried:

Tried to put the tree image ass a background-image. but that didn't work wasn't be able to put the image next the h1(make-a-wishlist for santa!)
So then i tried to put image in html. so I can place the image and the h1 as display: inline-block. (so now the image and the h1 are next to each other.)
Problem is i want to push the h1 a bit up so it stays in the middle of the picture.

This is what im able to do:


the header has to be centered.

Anyone who can help me put the h1(make-a-wishlist for santa!) like this:

Code:

<header>
<img src="images/xmas-tree.gif" title="xmas-tree" name="xmas-tree"/>
<h1>Make-a-wishlist for Santa!</h1>
</header>


ps: don't worry about the background i'm able do it.
