Krafty Chicks Challenge #616: CAS

 Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Are you ready for this week's challenge? I'm the hostess and we are looking for CAS, as in Clean And Simple. Here's my card:

I created this card for my eldest grandson as invitations to his birthday party in July. I had to make 5 of them so I wanted something fairly simple, hardest part was the fussy cutting. I let the New Horizon's DSP give the outer space feel. Then traced the astronaut with a Micron pen (he was just too "flat" without the oultine). The planet was created using the "rock & roll" technique; you stamp solid image in base colour, then roll the stamps edges in a different colour.

As I am in a rush this week to create these invites and another set of invites for the youngest grandson also, I didn't take pic of the supplies I use. Life is a tad busy with the Grand Opening of the other pizza shop, gardening, housework, family, crafting and  resting. I keep saying one more week and life as I knew it will go back to normal but there's still yet another week.
