Having Trouble with background position

Think I'm doing the positioning wrong, but can't figure it out. Any help would be great, this is my code:

.sketch { background: url('img/pencil.png') no-repeat left bottom, url('img/smiley.png) no-repeat right top, url('img/texture.jpg') #EED293;

}

Try something like this,

.sketch {
  background-image: ;
    background: url('img/pencil.png') no-repeat bottom left, url('img/smiley.png') no-repeat top right, url('img/texture.jpg') #EED293;
}

I think you just mixed up your positioning by the order of the words left bottom and right top, they should be switched as shown above. Thanks! Ben
