Believe!

I made this card for two different challenges and then realized that I didn't qualify for either one!! Bummer!  But I do want to thank Dynamic Duos and Merry Monday for leading me to the red and aqua idea, even though I didn't get the right blue for Dynamic Duos and I didn't get the circles required by Merry Monday!

Believe

The snowflakes actually are aqua - I just couldn't get the glare off of the main photo.  Here's a different view.

That cute reindeer was another spontaneous punch purchase - after I swore not to bring any more bulky punches into my tiny crafting space.  Then to add insult to injury - I paid full price for it but my Archiver's coupons were waiting in my mailbox when I got home!  Luckily, he's very cute or I'm not sure I could forgive him!!

    Love the kraft reindeer!! I know what you mean about the gargantuan punches...where to store them, the drawer I store most of my punches in is too shallow...argh!!

    What a lovely card, and even though the reindeer was full price, he truly is adorable! Are you sure you don't see circles in your card, because I do: Rudolph's nose gem, the bell, the snowflakes (circular shaped). I say add this delightful entry to MM; it's too pretty to be 'challenge-free'!!

    You ARE a human being, Kims!! LOL! That sounds like the stuff I get up to, but lemme tell you, it's their loss! Your card is so bouncy and happy! I love the stripes and the little nose and the jingle bell collar ... TOPS!! Hugs, Darnell

    (Hey, someone is having stripes ... I'll go see if I can find out - HEY!! It's Paper Smooches, you can totally enter this there!! It's a winner in my book!)

    Love it! The candy cane striped patterned paper forms the perfect frame for this sweet little guy! If it were up to me, I'd say you qualify for the challenges!
