Honeycomb paper

3) Punch circle and apply glue on one side to cover completely.
4) Place edge of honeycomb paper along outer edge of circle, going around and keep going towards inside of circle.
Ideally you will go around circle twice adhering flower edge only.
5) Finish center as desired and adhere to art.
My sample uses stamp by Sweet Pea Stamps ("Abbie" by Conie Fong), Nestie by SB, papers from Sam's Club, embossing folder by Crafts-Too,
honeycomb paper by Inky Antics, candi by Craftworks. I used a one inch circle but you may do any size you like.
