2 cards 4 challenges

Good morning everyone.  What a morning.  I've been printing pics for my Christmas album, but something kept happening to the  program.  I would get the pic picked and set up to print, and it would tell me there was an error and boot me out of the program.  On top of that I was waiting for the tow truck to pick up DH car (it wouldn't start yesterday), and the truck had a heck of a time getting in the driveway.  Too soft, too narrow, he kept sliding into the snow bank, he's chewed the driveway up I hope we don't get stuck.  The little guy has his appointment today with the pediatritiion, to make sure he's getting all the help he needs at school, and check his progress. 
Anyway, I'm back in the groove.  Did two cards last night.  This one is for 365 Cards Day 310-White space.  You were to keep decorations confined to the blacked out area.

Here is the sketch.
