I tried heat embossing on glimmer paper to make this pretty congratulations card for one of my Team Members. I stamped the cocoa pods image from the Lovely & Sweet Set and heat embossed it in gold first, but it didn't show up as well as I wanted. So, I stamped it again trying to line it up as much as I could on the first image and heat embossed it again in white. It shows up better and the little bits of gold that shine through give it a bit more depth!
