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.

Wow Kittie! This is such a wonderful scene you created! I LOVE the use of the liquid applique to make those realistic waves! And I know what you mean about getting old...I don't have the energy I used to...

Ha - I'm sure I'm a few years younger than you, and I don't have the energy sometimes when I get home. Kittie, I always love your beach scenes most of all. I'm making a note of how you added colour to those dies! The perspective of the scene reminds me of a little cove we once found on one of the Greek islands, where we almost had to climb down a ladder to get to it.

We all knew what your favorite tools are, Kittie! As you said, "no brainer." Your card is lovely, and I really like the way you achieved the foam in the water. I'm still working on that!

Oh I'm so glad you found the energy to play today....this is a fantastic card as always. You did forget to mention those amazing magical nimble fingers of yours as a favorite. You inspire so many. Thanks for playing.

Such a calm and peaceful scene! I love your shading on the sand, the grasses, and the fence..wow it just makes the beach come alive. I would have thought that tweezers might be on your list..you usually have such tiny pieces to assemble..lol. Glad you could play today...and I get tired, too.
