Becca Feeken at Amazing Paper Grace has created a honeycomb bauble decoration. Travel on over to her excellent video tutorial. Becca uses the Spellbinders Heirloom Ornament die. The same principles can be applied to circles if you don't have the die.
This time it is important to use text weight paper. For the last Christmas bauble I loosely used the term Christmas paper but most of our printed scrapbook papers are heavier than text paper. Some of the flexible text weight pearl papers would look lovely. I think Becca's find of double sided purple and gold paper looks lovely and just right for the design.
After my own experiences with glue dots I was interested to read that one of her secrets is to use "very aggressive glue dots". Wonder what the brand is? I know they come on a roll, that much I picked up from the video!!
I still have some supplies of manufactured tissue weight honeycomb paper. This tutorial has me wondering if I can cut through the block with either of my die systems.
