Glitter bauble

I loved the paper bauble that Jayne showed us a few weeks ago made from paper circles folded in half. There have been some other versions on the internet recently with circles with a triangle in the middle, but I found it hard to get the scoring even on them. I realised today that the new Fiskars scalloped circle punch would make this easy – because there are 15 scallops round the edge, it can be scored between each 5 scallops and will be even every time.

Tried it out today with 8 scalloped circles cut from glitter papers, and it went together really easily. Now I need to try it with more circles to give a fuller shape.
Thanks for looking!

    Gosh this takes me back, used to spend hours making these with old Christmas cards and a stapler, nowhere near as nice as yours Ruth.
