Kaleidoscope

And here is the next letter in the Craft Barn's alpha challenge......letter K.

Turns out there aren't really that many words beginning with K - Lee came up with this suggestion and it is Kaleidoscope. I interpreted it as "just go mad" so I did - I gessoed the background first leaving the definition free and then I stuck down various gems and I had some little mirror squares that I've had for ages and never used - perfect! Then I sprayed on some purple and pink Dylusions and a bit of perfect pearls, then I dabbed some glue on and added some glitter, stars and micro beads. Finally I used black soot distress stain around the edge.
