The panels were part of the template we used. We used a stylus to lightly score the fold before we stamped the shade. Then let the ink dry well before we actually made the folds and taped together.
I have two templates for these shades. One has a wide wavy edge and this scalloped edge. I'm sure you could make a straight edge-paneled shade as well.
I'll see what I can do about scanning the template and posting.
