This is for WT533 to use our favorite tool or tools that we reach for every time we craft. That was a no brainer for me. I use my big shot, dies, mounting tape and glossy accents on 99% of my projects.
I am off work today and am excited that I am able to play in the WT challenge. I just don't seem to have the energy to play with my crafting when I get home from work like I used to. Ten years ago when I joined SCS I almost never missed playing in the daily challenges and it was joyful and relaxing for me. Getting old is no fun. LOL! Most of my crafting projects now are made on the weekends.
I love making beach scenes and couldn't resist making another one for today's challenge. You can see more details on my blog post at Kittie Kraft.

I have been such a long time fan of your intricate, precise scenes, and love the stamps you design. I remember way back when, one of the challenges was to make a Kitty style card - oh, how I labored over drawing that tree and using the Watercolor Minis set to make my foliage and ground! I used to do the challenges after work but no longer have the energy past a certain hour in the day : ( You are correct about the toll age takes - darn! Anyway, so glad to see you here today with your stunning beach scene; love the gulls wheeling over the sand and glistening water!

Your tools work together so well to make these terrific "Kittie" scenes that I have grown to love. One of these days retirement will come, and you will be back in the gallery full steam.

Oh Kittie! You are such an enabler!!! Everytime I see one of your cards I feel like I must go buy everything you used!!!!
This is beautiful! I always love your beachy themed cards, you do the ocean white caps/shore line foam so well. It just looks like it's sparkling in the sun! Your birds are perfect too!
I love this card!

Beautiful scene! I love the detail in this one. The ocean looks so alive. I love all of your cards...I can usually pick them out right away...but this one is especially gorgeous. Of course it's a FAV. tfs
