It's an Alphabet Challenge and I'm revisiting "R" and this time I'm going with recycle. This snowy scene is recycled from an old commercial Christmas card that a family member received and saved for me to use for this purpose. I love giving it a new life! The image features a group of boys playing hockey so I think this will be a good card for my nephew.
I overlaid the image with Find It Trading Amy Design Wintertide Frame Die, and added a die-cut Let it Snow greeting. This was a quick and easy card!
I would also like to support the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Monday Recycle
Thank you for looking at my card! Wishing you a joyful day!

Has been a great idea using the recycled commercial card with the white intricate frame, they look so well together! I'm sure your nephew will love it!
I have a BIG box of commercial cards to recycle, but not time enough... :/

Such a peaceful and beautiful winter scene!
Beautiful and so restfully looking is that scene. I love the die you used to frame it. Great recycling my friend.
What a great idea! I have a die very similar and never quite know what to do with it, but I had to have it because it was so nice :-)
Beautiful winter card, my friend.
Hugs,

What a great winter scene and your die sets the mood. Wonderful card.
What an awesome way to upcycle an old card Kitty, I just LOVE this! The winter scene in the background makes a beautiful base to work on, but I'm most impressed with your idea to add another scene on top... it looks fabulous! The snowflakes and the little winter village are lovely. I really like the skates hanging from the lamp post as well. The addition of the die cut sentiment is what really brings this card together. Beautiful!
Cheers,
