The secret to success is to score and pre-crease the pattern template. Overlap the end segments to make a continuous strip, then a ring. To achieve the slat appearance, cut the purple sections on their angled and short sides, then stick them down on the wrong side. (Print the wrong side of your card in matching purple for the see-through version.)

It would be fun to enclose a jingle bell in the see-through globe.

Happy pleating!
