Gladys has the flu bug !!

Hello Ai fans !!
Today I am using Gladys sku # P1551 to create this get well card , how sad does she look , totally hits it right on the head , I know we have all been there a time or two.
Gladys 2-27 001
My creative process started with the coloring my image , then I found a 6*6 My Minds Eye Bramble Rose ( this papers are so gorgeous  , also 6*6 papers have smaller prints and work perfect for cards) , I cut my image with the ornate die and chalked inside edge of it while die was still on with a soft yellow to create a glow  ( this let you have a white frame around the edge ) .I then laid this on several papers until I found just the right one , I then found matching card stock to create my layers , I made square layers to add behind the die , I  added paper piercing on each corner , I added stitching to my bottom layers ,  I added my ribbon to top two layers before I attached to base card stock.I often use wax paper when cutting my doilies out ( help come off die easy and the punch outs come out easy , its like waxing your die when you have lots of small cutouts ) , so I am using the wax paper cut today. I attached my image at a slant and added ribbon and hand-made flowers with yellow stickles in centers , I made a sentiment banner with a layer , I hand cut these .I added glossy accents to water and ceramic mug , glass , I added glitter pen the thermometer and remote .These small details add lots of wow to your card so don’t forget to add them .
