Something for the boys!

Hello there! Its hump day - woo hoo!

I hope you're enjoying your week so far...I can't believe that May is nearly over already! What is happening to this year??

Anyway, last weekend I had an action packed time - on Saturday I went to the Burlesque Afternoon tea with Lorna, it was officially my last Birthday treat of this year! We had a fabulous time...the tea was yummy and the entertainment was good fun! Lorna and I both dressed for the occasion....Lorna in full on 1920s flapper style and me in my 1950s dress and petticoat. Here is a dodgy photo that someone took of us

 
Doesn't Lorna look fab?
 
So a very girlie day on Saturday....followed by a more manly day on Sunday as Joe and I took part in a charity car rally. It started with a procession in Petersfield that made us feel like celebrities...this was the view from inside Joe's car....
 
 
All those people lining the streets were fantastic...taking photos and waving at all the participants! It was such good fun. We then drove off in convoy, travelling to several different check points...to be honest the traffic jams were quite cool....
 
 
Finally we ended up in Farnham, our final destination. The sun shone all day and the cars all looked fantastic!
 
So, I do have a card for you today...and it fits in with my car day....
 
 
I've gone with a blue and brown colour theme for my masculine car, along with a fab Mini stamped image. I have coloured my image with my Promarkers and have added my sentiment and some faux stitching.
 
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
 
Crafty Sentiments - show us your stitching
Simon Says Stamp - anything goes
