Sketch challenge

Hello again! It's time for a new challenge over on the Polka Doodles blog, with a rather nifty little sketch being this fortnight's challenge. I love using sketches - I should use them more often in fact! It's great how you're freed up to think about colours, images and embellishments without worrying about placement - the results are always fabulous!
I used the Work & Play 6 CD again for this one - the cleaning lady is such a fab image and I love that vacuum-patterned paper! I've been playing with coiled flowers lately, which I made by tightly coiling a strip of patterned paper using a quilling tool. It didn't give quite enough colour, however, so some bright felt flowers remedied this, while lilac gems and buttons finished the look. I hope you like it! Have a great weekend :)
