My very first challange card

Whilst I was blog hopping this morning through my list of blogs that I like to visit, I was taken in by the Saturday Challenge on

SKETCH SATURDAYS blog

I decided to read the instructions carefully as I have never taken part in any of the various blog challenges before and took the plunge. I know a lot of the challenges involve stamping as not being an avid stamper, I thought I would so something different with toppers and papers from Joanna Sheen's Victorian Birthday CD. I hope I have followed the sketch and the instructions correctly.

I really enjoyed this challenge - different direction for me but good for getting out of "the comfort zone".

Thank you to everyone at Saturday Sketch for the idea's xxx
