~~  Impress (I've used Peddler's Pack rose) onto glossy cardstock with Memories Black ink.  I hear that StazOn is great, too.  Embossing would probably work instead, I suppose.

~~   After the ink has dried thoroughly, pour Diamond Glaze glue (from Judi-kins) all over the image.  Feel free to use your finger to spread around.  There needs to be enough glue to really stand up.

Any thin places won't turn out right.

~~   While glue is still very wet, take 3 bottles of refill ink from Tsukineko (probably any DYE ink will work, I just like Tsukineko).  Only use DYE ink.  Splatter glued image lightly with ink.  A little ink goes a long way, since it starts spreading across the surface of the wet glue.  After several seconds, if the ink hasn't spread to cover all the surface, either use a little brush (I use my fingers) to 'fine tune' where the ink should go or splatter with some more ink.  The idea here is for destiny to take it's course, not for every card to be exactly the same.  Art, people!  Art!

~~  After you're happy with the way the color has spread, add doo-dads.  My favorite things to add are Judi-kins' microbeads.  I've also experimented with glitter and embossing powder.  If you use a leaf from the yard, make sure you completely cover it with Diamond Glaze so it won't turn brown.

~~  Put your gluey product somewhere the cat won't step in it and let it dry for about 24 hours.  The end result is so incredibly pretty you won't believe it!  I made some of these for an auction at our school and received about $15 each card!
