Verve Sketch Challenge

This is my first go at one these sketches although I have looked at them for a while. I dont have any verve stamps, maybe I will need to do something about that. I dont know the name of this stamp set as I stamped it at my friend Linda Higgins house, it is in the new autumn mini though. I decided to make a dreaded male card and am happy with the result.

You can find the sketch HERE

Thanks for looking.
