So for my Anything Goes… I went with a shaped card and paper piecing. I’m not big into shaped cards but with this image it was super easy! I also paper pieced PJ’s scarf and ice skates, which I learned an easy way from Mel Stampz. (THANK YOU!)
I attached the paper pieces with Helmar ZapDots.

The rest of PJ, I colored with copics. Used a clear sparkle gel pen on the snowflakes and brushed Shimmerz over the entire globe.


Look how easy that was to make a shaped card? I just folded the paper in half and cut the globe out but stopped short at the top leaving about 1/2 inch still attached for the back flap. Now I realize that Copics bleed through so I attached another piece of white cardstock on to the back and cut it to shape of the globe and it completely covered up the copic bleeding.
