Pretty Belles

Here's a lovely uncut set from Whitman dated 1965.  This set is numbered 1961 and there is another version 1966 with a different cover from the  same year.  The set includes 2 dolls, Kathy and Karen *my mother's name* along with 6 pages of outfits.  I have a few free days off of work so I'll work on getting some convention photos and souvenirs posted.

2016 Paper Doll Convention

Can I even explain how much fun I've had at the 2016 Paper Doll Convention in Phoenix?!  I will be posting pictures soon!  I met so many great people, artist, and collectors.  I felt so welcomed by the community.  I am certainly inspired to create more art and have lots of great finds to share.  I don't know if I will be able to attend the 2017 Convention because it may be too far away (Philadelphia) and I have a lot to work on! However, I do suggest anyone whose ever consider going to a Paper Doll Convention to save up money and invest in this great experience at least once!  I think I have a life time of memories from this wonderful event!  And so much to blog about!

Baby Betsy
