DCD Challenge #90

Today sees my first card as a DT member over on Die Cut Dreams.  Yes some of you may remember I've been there before...... I had a change and joined DCD Christmas challenge blog, but Susie is closing that down after the present challenge finishes on Friday and she kindly asked me if I'd like to join them back at DCD, so of course I said yes.
This weeks challenge is for you to follow a sketch and here it is.
And here's my DT card.
The image and BP are from a CD by Debbi Moore and it's called Crystal Dreams.  I had to make this quickly, that's why I chose the ready printed image, I'd have stamped and coloured it if I'd had time.

DDSB #57 Follow That Sketch

Oooohhhhh I've just realised I've made a booboo for this weeks challenge on Digi Doodle Shops Best, which is to follow a sketch.  Well, I only forgot to follow it didn't I...... lol  That's what you get for rushing things!
Here's the sketch
 And here's my DT card.
 Well I suppose I got the image shape right and my gems are in the wrong place and I've also missed some off.  But I thought that since I've done it I would show you anyway..... lol.  I've used my Prisma Colour pencils to colour this one.  I very rarely use them and have decided to get them and and use them more.  The image is called 'Gone With The Wind 1' and you can buy and download it HERE  I'd love to have been able to wear dresses like this, wouldn't you?
Why not join us in this challenge, you could win a $10 gift certificate to spend the the online shop, Digi Doodle Shop.
