Go to Hasbro Game and Toy Instructions and if you scroll down there's some .pdf files showing how they're designed--would be pretty easy to duplicate if they're not still selling them, though I think used ones can be found online. Another variation on that which is currently in production is:
Hello Kitty Fashion Tracing Plates

I had one of those! Actually I think we had two different sets over the years...one from the eighties and one that had belonged to my Mom's youngest sister as I recall, and must have been from the sixties. Barbie.
