Ok ... I'm not sure this classifies as a CAS ... I am SO not good at those. But, this is what came to mind when thinking about summer food. We camped a lot when I was a kid and I can remember the fire, the screened-in room we took with us to eat in, the bacon and sausage for breakfast cooking on the griddle, and how vivid the smells were in the open air.
The 'stars' are dots created using the glitter gel pen, and the fire has some of that on there, too. I used the sewing machine to sew the edge with little leaves. It's a stitch on the machine, so it only took a couple of minutes.

Great card and your story almost makes the smells and sounds of camping come through. I hear the fire crackling and can smell breakfast! Good job with the sewing too.
