Dorothy Mackaill

Here is another newspaper sheet from the St Louis Dispatch. This movie Dressograph features Dorothy Mackaill with two dresses, a top with matching skirt, two pairs of shoes, and accessories.  This paper doll was published December 27th, 1931.  I've been fighting the summer blues.  It's been 100+ here and it's hard to be motivated to do anything.  Not to mention working two jobs is starting to wear me out, it's hard to find time for anything either.

Crumbs Sugar Cookie

This Lalaloopsy doll was on of the orignal 8 that were released.  This doll has 4 tops, 3 skirts, an apron, overalls, and Pjs, along with 3 pairs of shoes and her pet mouse.  Like the other Lalaloopsy dolls, the character is owned by MGA, the art was drawn by me using Adobe Illustrator software. 

Jane Arden's Wardobe

Been super busy.  Having trouble getting pics off my camera from the convention, decided to fuss with it later.  Trying to get some motivation to work on projects.  Every time I try to start I go, "Now what was I going to draw?"  The idea comes back later in the middle of work...  Anyway, here's another lovely Jane Arden newspaper doll from 1930s,  3-3-35 to be exact.  She has two dresses, a coat,  two hats, and a top with a skirt.

Jane Arden's Wardrobe

Starting scanning my binder of 1930s Jane Arden's Wardrobe paper dolls.  This newspaper doll is from 2/24/35 and features Jane with a chair and four lovely outfits.

Alice in Wonderland

This set is based on Disney's Alice in Wonderland animated movie which was derived from a book of the same name written by Lewis Carroll.  The characters featured are Alice, the White Rabbit, and the Mad Hatter.  The Cheshire cat is also included, but does not have any clothing.  The book has 6 page of outfits, 4 pages for Alice and a page each for the two other characters.  Of course, most of the costumes do not appear in the movie.  This book was published by Whitman in 1976.

Blossom Flowerpot

Here is another Lalaloopsy paper doll featuring MGA's character Blossom Flowerpot.  Blossom has three tops, three bottoms, three pairs of shoes, and one bumble bee outfit.

Marie Osmond

Here is a beautiful set featuring the celebrity Marie Osmond. The set was produced in 1973 by Artcraft.  It has two lovely dolls of Marie and portraits of her brothers on the back cover.  The book has 4 pages of outfits.

Quick 4th of July paper doll

A very quickly done paper doll for the 4th of July.  Her hair reminded me of Pinkie Pie from my little pony, so it's pink.  She has three patriotic outfits.
