Happy to honor Linda, a faithful stamper along with her buddy Sonja. Also revisited TLC832, the kaleidoscope squares tutorial and am adding this to the ABC14 challenge...Q for quadruple. Four panels on this card.
Based on a Natasha Foote video, I wanted to try heat embossing on mirror card. It sort of oxidizes it, removing some shine and making sort of an oil slick look with different colors. Quite interesting...not all mirror cardstock reacts that way, according to her. Natasha doesn't do a lot of 'out of the box' creating but I do enjoy her, she receives so much joy from her stamping. This is what I chose to CASE: XOXO by hotwheels at Splitcoaststampers
I used a stamp that I used yesterday for the IC, realizing that it might work well for the kaleidoscope square technique, which I wanted to revisit anyway. Added some sequins, Liquid Pearls and twine. I kept Linda's basic layout and colors. Congrats, Linda and enjoy your week.

This is exquisite, Jean. I love the effect of the heat embossing on mirror paper. Now I'm curious to try it too! The kaleidoscope technique is perfect for the letter Q. Beautiful card!

The tarnished foil technique looks quite interesting. I may have to give it a go very soon. Love how you repeated the stamping and assembled the squares. Thanks for honoring Linda with your lovely card.
