Freshly Made Sketches #111 Challenge

I am still trying out different challenge sites to see who I have the most fun with and vibe with. I decided to try the Freshly Made Sketches one this week,  Y,ou can find them here if you'd like to play along Freshly Made Sketches

Here is the picture of the challenge:

And for someone as anal retentive as myself. The unequal side to middle and unfinished line played with my head a bit...it's why a completely asymmetrical hairdo has never worked for me! Lol So here's my entry...not my favourite piece I've ever done...but it's okay I think. I like the small details. ;) 
 



The Products That I Used:
Crumb Cake Cardstock
Chocolate Chip Cardstock
Versamark 
Wild Wasabi Embossing Powder
Silver Embossing Powder
Ornament Keepsakes Stamp Set
Holiday Ornaments Framelits
Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine
Jewels Basic Pearls
Natural Cotton Ribbon
Raspberry Ripple Stitched Satin Ribbon







1st Kiwi Stampers Holiday Meeting

The 1st Kiwi Stampers Unit get together for quarterly meetings where we laugh so hard our bellies hurt a bit after (it's like cardio), we eat some treats, we make some cool things and even learn some new techniques from the crafting goddesses in our group. We also have the choice to participate in swaps (you make something for as many people participating and then trade each person for one of theirs - gives you ideas and examples to show others) and a secret Santa exchange where you create something using SU product for $5. So...We have 21 items to make...but this year there's a twist. Last year one of those Goddesses I mentioned made a VERY cool framed piece of art with squares...so that's what we are doing...make a square:
* 2 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches (if embossing in Big Shot, 3x3 as it shrinks)
* Colour scheme is Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Champagne/gold Sparkle (you do not have to use all colours but it needed to be complimentary)
* Christmas Themed
* Current SU Product

Here is the teaser pic:

But wait...there's more..... Lol (insert suspense music here!)
