AAA Cards - White Space (Christmas) Challenge

Hello crafty friends,

Can I share a secret?  I'm not good w/white space.  So when I started working on a card to submit to the current AAA Cards - Maxi White Space w/optional twist of Christmas in July I tried to keep my design as white as I could manage.

And this is what I came up with.  Somewhat busy, but technically there's a lot of white space, right?

Thanks for stopping by and wish me luck.
