paper dolls to share

Want to share with you paper dolls i have collected from print material or on the web. What i hope to do is post one a week that you can print out yourself for your own use.....

that being said, let start with some Mary engelbreit......

This is Lilah - she is from a magazine that i used to receive in the mail - but alas like all good things this happens no more. When i first started receiving the magazine - the dolls were printed on very heavy weight paper and a full page in the magazine. As time progressed, both of these things changed - the paper became thinner and the size ended up being just a bit bigger than those postcard inserts that magazines include as inserts between the pages now. The Lilah's were all on the smaller size pages. The originals are all (with the exception of just a few pages) created so that if you only cut out the outfits from each page they would all fit, what i mean is take this first Lilah - cut her and her clothes/accessories out and then take next weeks and only cut out the clothes and they should fit the Lilah doll from this page - what i did was take the originals and tape them to a 8.5"x11" sheet of paper when i scanned them in that way they're all the same size when i print them out - if you resize the images or crop out the borders - theres no way to tell if this will still happen. What i've also done is given you a copy of the original and a copy without the background artwork (you decide which you want).
