An 18 inch doll wears a donut costume. There's a purple frame around the photo of the 18 inch doll in the frosted donut costume. The words "free pattern" are above and at a slight angle to the left of the photo of the 18 inch doll (not an American Girl doll, but one that looks a lot like American Girl dolls). The Chelly Wood dot com logo appears in one corner of the picture.

Inside a purple frame (with tiny white polka dots), we see an 18 inch doll (not one of the American Girls dolls but another brand) wearing a donut-shaped pillow as a Halloween costume. The words "free pattern" are at a slight angle over the top of the photo, and there's a white arrow that curls from the "free patterns" words to the pillow shape of the donut pillow worn around the doll's shoulders. The Chelly Wood dot com logo appears in one corner.

Here we see a turquoise blue linen border around a photo of a vintage Ideal Velvet doll, looking at her from the back, regarding the jeans she's wearing from the waist down. Her long hair has been pulled up, and we can see that these are jeans or dungarees with a high waist, like the kinds of pants or jeans that were popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The doll stands with her back to us. The words above the photo say "free pattern" and below that is the logo for Chelly Wood dot com.
