This is an idea I had for awhile. We all know you can't emboss acetate because it warps when heated. Well, why not do it on purpose? I stamped the striped flower with black StazOn and colored with alcohol inks on the backside. Then VEEEEERY carefully pointed my heatgun at the acetate. And you know what? You can actually "steer" how it warps! I can't explain with words (would need a video to show you). Just try it and you'll see! It's almost as magical as embossing is :) I added a detail photo to show you the beautiful reflection underneath and the warping close up.
