Cut a 9" circle.
Cut 2" strips of another paper. I cut 4 and had left over pieces.
Punch the edges, one side only. I used MS's lace punch.
Ink the edges softly.
Cut every two scallop. Fold them in half as if you were making a pleat.
Start gluing them unto your circle. Make sure they overlap, this way you can follow the "circle shape".
This is what it looks like when you have glued them all the way around.
I sewed it with a zig zag stitch.
This is what it looks like after you sewed it. I did it about 1/4 ' from the edge to give it more dimension.
