The gorgeous Waterways Kit was revealed last week during the Scraps Of Darkness/Scraps Of Elegance Blog Hop, and now this week it is the Design Team's turn to show it off.

With this project, I went in a totally different direction. I can tell it was a full moon, because my mood went from summer and sweet, to crazy and cool!!

This is a hanging banner that I created using this month's Creativity Kit. I love this add on!! It allows me to take some of the kit pieces and put together something totally unique and beautiful!

I did tons of technique and altering work that is hard to see in this photo, so close ups and details, please visit my blog at:

I took the wooden plaque from the Creativity Kit, and covered it using my textured tissue paper background. You can find the tutorial on the Scraps Of Darkness website.

The mermaid is an image I got from Google Images, and then totally altered.

I am now dreaming of Mermaids and far off beaches, but it looks like I will be staying here in Tennessee, and will just have to comfort myself by getting to create some more with this FABulous kit!! If you get to head off to some exotic place, please be sure to collect some sea shells for me, and blow a little sand and sun this way!! Hugs till then~Renea
