Diecut Divas Hot August Nights Challenge

So its time for a new challenge over at Diecut Divas and the theme is Hot August Nights. Now to be honest when Arlene told me the theme I immediately thought of Neil Diamond - I thought that can't be right, could it?
So after visiting my friend Google I discovered it was a big hot rod festival in Reno. What influenced my card was the many nightscape images of Reno with the cluster of buildings and a big sky full of stars.
