Mad Tea Party, Happy Birthday to me and a gift for you!











Its time! for Vanessa Valencia of A Fanciful Twist 2nd Annual Mad Tea Party!

Now I realize Mad Tea Parties are supposed to be for Un-Birthdays but its my birthday so by Royal proclamation of the Queen of Hearts... You are here by invited to my Un-Birthday Party Birthday Party! I have a little party favor for you too, I will be drawing a name from my list of followers to win this enchanting little white rabbit pendant from my shop.


Alice and the Mad Hatter arrived first. Followed by the White Rabbit and birthday girl.
The feast included lemon frosted cupcakes (with gumdrops) chocolate flowers molded by Alice and the Hatter themselves, and oatmeal chocolate chip cookies that mysteriously read "Eat Me" on them!

Imagine our surprise to find Door Mouse at the table sipping tea! Is it just me, or is the party getting more and more colorful?


Of course we saved a special place for you, with a warm cup of Wonderland tea and cookies!
Remember the White Rabbit giveaway, I will do a drawing on July 4th of all my blog followers to pick the winnner!

And another surprise I'm having Birthday sale! All prints in my shop are buy one get one free till July 4th!

would you care for cream or honey in your tea?

Hi :)
That looks like a wonderful party. Very creative & fun.
I would adore that White Rabbit but I would give it to my 13 year old daughter Chelsea who would love it more than I.

Thanks for sharing

Why thank you for saving me a seat at your fine tea party. And Here's wishing you the bestest Unbirthday / Birthday Party there ever was. Loved meeting all your characters even the furry ones.
