Distressed Thank You - The Deconstructed Sketch DS44 & Perfect Sentiments Challenge PSC24

I thought that I had better use some of the roses that I made last week when I found out how to make these beautiful roses using the Fancy Flower Punch from Stampin' Up.  I got a bit carried away at the time and made heaps of these roses using up my scraps of cardstock.

I have made a Thank You card using browns and creams as this toning went with the colour of my roses.  I am entering this card into the following challenges:

1. Perfect Sentiments Challenge  PSC24 where this week the challenge is to make a card with a Thank You sentiment, however the twist was to use some form of distressing on the card, eg. torn paper, roughed up edges, inking, crumpling etc.  I have used torn paper, roughed up edges and inking distressing techniques on this card.

2. The Deconstructed Sketches  DS44 based on the following sketch:
