A card for my brother

First of all let me say a huge Thank You to Mina, CraftyLoops, Sue, Wendy, Isswizz, Jules and Irene for being so kind as to add your name to my Followers and for your  lovely comments.  Looking at everybodys blogs I do realise just how much I have to learn.  This card I made for my brother who has completely rebuilt an old Austin and has made it into a little roadster not unlike these.  It also gave me the opportunity to try out my one and only mask.  The images are from the Nostalgia cd. and the backing paper is from Debbie Moore's Shabby Chic cd.  I have to add that the photographer has been complaining that he does not get a mention - so Gerry consider yourself mentioned - despite the fact that Lord Litchfield would have been less fussy.
