Jubilee and Karmen are your typical magical forest gals. Their whimsical wings and fancy dressing make them your typical modern fairy.
About Miss Jubilee
With a taste for the trendy, Jubilee knows the best way to show off her fay style is by finishing up window shopping downtown, donning her magnetic fairy mask and fluttering back to the forest.
About Miss Karmen
With a taste for tropical daiquiris and salsa, Karmen knows the best way to show off her trendy fay style is by dancing on the beach with friends until sunrise. Afterwards she dons on her magnetic fairy mask and flutters back to the forest.
**! The fairy paper dolls are handmade, signed, have many moving joints, delicate semi-translucent wings, a genuine swarovski crystal and magnetic removable fairy mask !** Because the mask is magnetic - you can remove and replace the mask onto the paper dolls face easily.
The paper doll fairies be propped up against other obviously less memorable things, or easily framed. Each paper puppet is approximately 9 x15 inches in size. Backed within a pochette and shipped safely as always.
Both shops are back open! Thanks to everyone who cleaned it out a week before Valentine’s day — hope everyone got some great hugs and love with their Crankbunny goodies! Been able to do inventory and most of all the Crankbunny cards / paper puppets are back on sale (though a little low on certain items - eeek - time to call up my printers!)
On another fun note!
The fine folks at Tattoo Savage magazine gave a page feature to a few of my Victorian Tattooed Paper Puppet Dolls in the Feb (April 2012) edition. The magazine is out now and I was able to do a spotting at my local newsstand which was a neat surprise!
Sammy* is a silly lovable pit bull! Sometimes Sammy gets the short end of the stick because of the “pit bull” name - ridiculous when most pit bull dogs* are goof balls with big hearts. The Sammy dog greeting card with fun moving googly eyes will make anyone smile.

This card has three custom paper cut-out hat options: regular no hat, party hat, silly heart hat. It also includes a A6 sized white crisp printable envelope. This card is also available as a set in packs of 5, 10, or more for birthday parties, thank you cards, invitation etc — just contact the shop!
The sale of this card goes directly each month to two rescue groups : the PBRC (Pit Bull Rescue Central) and a different specific monthly chosen rescue group. The amount and details will get posted on the blog at the end of each month.
The donations go to animal rescues who focus on finding homes and giving medical card to Pit Bulls in need, promoting responsible dog ownership, and standing against breed discrimination.
*There is no Sammy in real life. Sammy represents all the amazing dogs who have found their forever homes or are waiting in animal shelters/rescues to find a permanent loyal loving home life despite being labeled a “pit bull”. Pit bull isn’t a specific breed. It’s a term used to describe all dogs with similar features known to the public as “pit bulls.” It encompasses American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers and mixes of those breeds.
Krampus is one of Santa’s best & also meanest helpers each year! He sets off with St. Nicholas each Christmas holiday season, warning & scaring naughty children. Little known fact though - Krampus is really just a happily elected elf in a big monster suit.
This paper puppet doll has many moving joints and adjustable parts! The Krampus monster head is removable to reveal an Elf. It can be propped up against other obviously less memorable things or easily framed. The puppet is approximately 7 x10 inches in size.

Sir Kyleian Nenada is a male character from Victorian times long ago. Known for a thick heavy Siberian accent somewhere mixed with a south drawl, Kyle knows the best way to show off his tattoos is when hocking limber for whiskey and sleeping tenderly with the forest wolves.
This paper doll is part of a larger series of different Victorian tattooed historical characters.
