For the first card I wanted a whimsical, sparkly card to go with this pretty angel image from American Art Stamp. The main image was colored with Copics. The angel wings were painted with Pearl-Ex and future floor wax. The flourish at the bottom is from a package of grunge board. I inked it with Aqua Mist Palette ink. Then colored it with glue pen then sprinkled it with Dazzling Diamonds glitter. I added a half a scalloped oval punch with a sentiment at the bottom and dots of stickles along the edges. I have a hard time letting such a wide open space stay uncluttered!!
I made the sheet of card candy for the May Gallery on Embellish It and I'm going to give it away as blog candy this week! It's a 4.25 x 5.5 sheet of Basic Grey Two Scoops paper that is covered with popped up flowers made with the same paper and stamps from Fancy Pants Pollen Dust set. I also added lots of glitter, rhinestones, buttons and dimensionals to make these fun embellishments to just put on a card or project. The flowers each have a dimensional on the back so you just need to lift them off the paper and they are ready to use.
To enter the giveaway just leave a comment on this post - and don't forget to leave your email or blog address so I can get ahold of you if you win! I'll pick a random will over the weekend.
Thanks for looking!

Love, Love, Love the card candy!!!!!!!!!! It's sooo sparkly and pretty. If I win them I would probably hate to ever take them off and use them. Lol!!
Oh...my...gosh!! Those flowers are SO beautiful! But then, what did I expect....everything on this site is gorgeous!
P.S.-Is there REALLY a scrapping substance called future floor wax, or is that the brand "Future" floor wax put on scrapping projects? That cracks me up!!!
This is the coolest way to do up some flowers for blog candy. It's so colorful and glitzy. What fun. Thanks so much for offering it as blog candy.
I love the wide open space with the touches of sparkle ... thanks for the chance to win.

Those angels are so beautiful, love your card Michelle. Can you tell me if all the stamps at AAS are mounted or do they sell also unmounted stamps?
