Dolly Dingle's Little Playmate Dotty Heard

Here's another full page Dolly Dingle paper doll from the artist Grace G Drayton. This one is from March 1920 (?)  I have two copies.  I love her little doll with 3 tiny outfits and a tiny hat.  The doll has 5 dresses and two hats, including a very cute Bo-Peep costume.

Halloween Fairy

It's October!  I'm very eager for Halloween.  Here is a little paper doll I've designed quickly inspired by fairy themed Halloween Costumes.  I used Adobe Illustrator for this doll.  She has four costumes, three hairstyles, and three pairs of shoes.  The base doll was created using this image below.  I have a few more Halloween projects in the works.
