JCBC #28 and HHS #27

2 challenges today, all wrapped into one nice little card! The two challenge websites are: Just Christmas and Birthday Cards (JCBC) and High Hopes Stamps (HHS).
The first challenge is to use this sketch as inspiration for card:The second challenge was to DE-Stress your design. This means that you can tear the paper, ink up your edges for an antique look, or use your scissors and de-stress the edges of the paper...You just had to de-stress the look an any way you wished. I used the inking method by inking the edges of the image, the border, and the horizontal element. This is my favorite way of de-stressing!
And here is my interpretation of the sketch AND de-stressing technique. Stuff I used for this card I used:
Images/Stamps: Cherry Blossoms Image {I downloaded from SOMEWHERE!! I am not sure where I found it, though I found it in blurfing (surfing blogs!)}, Short & Sweet (sentiment) SU. Accessories: MS Border Punch, Gems, Brown Ink, dimensionals (images is raised), and downloaded paper from somewhere too!
