old aliens

 

Alien paper dolls from an old file I found on a flash drive. Greys, Greens, and blues. Ehtta (ET) Kozmiquex (cosmic) and Moonchild are out of this world and here to land on earth's fashions

Dress a Doll Kelly

 

Sometimes I totally forget I made a thing or if I shared it or not. I designed this base inspired by Mattel Barbie's little sister Kelly (also sometimes called Shelly or Shelley?) the base comes in two variations one with undies for those who do not care for doll nudity and one without. There doll is bald so that one can design hair for it. I designed this in 2020 using Adobe Illustrator and I think I may have posted on Facebook. But seems I never uploaded it to the blog. Anyway, feel free to print it out and design outfits. 

Old Alice

 

Sometimes a project gets pushed aside forgotten about abandoned.  Here is an Alice I created in 2022 I started coloring the three black and white pages but never finished the third page. Since it's unlikey I will, I posted what I have completed, two colored pages. I never finished because I ended up not liking the color pallet I went with on the last page. I am going to try and start/finish post some more projects even if they aren't done. 

Gilbert

 

This single page paper doll is in my Doll Reader folder. Pat Stall is the artist. I am unsure if there is a second page missing. Black and white boy from 1879 with 5 costumes. 

Polly Parker

 

This paper doll features the doll Polly Parker. Each page has a different style/theme. Sea Breeze and Holiday in the Hamptons. Lisa Miller is the artist .These are from February  Haute Doll 2013. 

Advertisement Dolls

 

Here are a few double sided trading card type paper dolls the dolls can share clothing. These were unmarked from any particular brand. But the idea is that a vendor could put their own advertisement text on the inside of the dolls and an incentive to buy more product to get more dolls and outfits.They fold in half and the outfits usually fold over the head or wrap around 

Paper doll scrap outfits collage

 

If you have a box like I do of spare bits and pieces of cut paper doll outfits, you can use them for collage, altered art, making cards, decorating mail, mixed media or other. The above are four collage canvases I created using my scrap left over clothes; I sorted by color then played with the layouts I like to use these as computer desktop or cellphone digital wallpaper ad well.   The convention is a blast. I am exhausted but having tons of fun. Highly recommend. If you've never been to a paper doll convention, go! The people, collectors, and artist of the community are absolutely wonderful.
