Mess Around Card

I saw this challenge on the Saturday Spotlight blog 'Doing the Mess Around'. Well that takes some thought, lol. I took a fabric swatch from one of the wallpaper books I have, pulled the threads around the outside which gave it a 'messy' appearance.

The accompanying wallpaper sample I cut flowers on the Cricut going down each layer 1/4", then I crumpled them and attached the bling in the middle (from a Costco set I got a few years back)
I added the outer rosette from a dazzle from Hot Off the Press (which was attached to the brown card stock). Rub on is from My Sentiments Exactly.  Ran the fabric through the Cuttlebug with the texture emboss folder.
