I used Raindrop Chloe which will be released on 24th September ... isn't she just a cuties with that umbrella and sunshine wellies!!
The book I used as inspiration is one of my children's favourites ... Dr Xargle's Book of Earth Weather. In it it says "Unlike us, earthlets are not waterproof. They go soggy in a rainblob." Chloe seems to be enjoying getting soggy!!
I coloured Chloe in using my pens and then cut her out. I pleated some yellow ribbon and added some cerise to the bottom of it. The flower is made by gathering 2 lengths of ribbon and adding a blue button.I also made a step card using Ariel .. .my little one, Beth, wants to be a mermaid when she grows up, and is becoming slightly obsessed with Ariel!!! So this book is Hans Christian Anderson's Little Mermaid.
Again Ariel is coloured using my pens and cut out. I trimmed the papers to make them look wavy, and added orange ribbon and ricrac. I layered a flower up and added a copule of bows.Here's a closer look at Ariel ... apparently the hair isn't red enough!!

I'm not familiar with the weather book, but I think your card is darling! I especially like the ruffled ribbon and the ribbon flower.
I also think you did a fabulous job coloring the mermaid!
These are both beautiful cards Cathy, I just adore Ariel!!

Chloe is adorable, but I really love the Ariel card...especially with the paper you picked :)
Great job on both. We have been on a Little Mermaid kick here the past week too.
Gorgeous projects, love them both!
