Having problems with this code challenge

Here are the instructions:

We have an image file, 'smiley.png', located in the 'img' folder. Add it as an image above the texture background. Set it so that it doesn't repeat, and position it in the top-right corner of the div. Then, add 'img/pencil.png' above the smiley image layer. Set it so that it doesn't repeat, and position it in the bottom-left corner.

Here is the code I used:

.sketch {
    background: url('img/pencil.png') no-repeat bottom left, url('img/smiley.png') no-repeat top right, url('img/texture.jpg');
}

I solved it. I was just missing the background colour hex value at the end of the declaration.
