I played with
this technique a couple of years ago, and decided to play with it again.
Cut tissue paper about 1/2" larger than you want. Stamp image over the tissue paper (I started with a piece of left over light green tissue paper).

Gently wrinkle the tissue paper until it's covered with creases, be careful not to tear.

Gently spread the tissue paper over a piece of card stock that is covered with adhesive, and press down.

You can trim the edges and stop here or add a little shimmer.
I rubbed on some Moonlight Brilliance ink to soften my stamped images.
