Mad Tea Party 2011


What time is it????

I don't want to be late!
Yes, it's that time of the year again!!



Having heard the call to come to Tea...

'MAD Tea' that is,







the girls were all pretty happy to
BE here
for THIS years get together.
(you see...LAST year, they were nothing
but a twinkle in their creator's mind ;-)




Yes, the one and only, very whimsical Vanessa Valencia,
from 'A Fanciful Twist'
has again thrown out the annual
intangible web invitation
to join her in this crazy
Tea Party Nonsense
that is quite MAD.


So....because they now can,
the girls (Millicent, Chantilly and Paige) decided on a Mad Tea Party
 in the Rose Garden.



It would be a marvellous excuse,
to dress up in the favourite gowns and
don their best wigs and hats.




Of course, NO Mad Tea Party
would be much fun
without the company of  the charming Marques,
to regale them with his make-believe stories
about his past adventures.













After they had all had their fill,
of cups of TEA and nibbled on
delicious sweet treats
till their contented tummys could no longer fit
another morsel in... 









They all joined with Marques in lounging around on the lawn,
for a spot of cloud gazing...



finding strange and peculiar shapes
 amongst the clouds,
that kinda looked a lot like
teapots and cups and saucers....





I hope you have all enjoyed
this years Mad Tea Party. For other delightful parties please go here to view the MANY more that are on offer over at
'A Fanciful Twist.'


...PS.thanks Vanessa!

Oh...and the girls and Marques can all, be found in my Etsy shop, Lilliput Loft.

    So sorry I am late
    For this important date.
    I'm still making my way down the list.

    With too little time
    I'm leaving this rhyme
    For I'm adamant about wanting to persist.

    All this running about
    Has left me dry in the mouth.
    Might I have a cup of tea?

    Your cakes of rose
    and those with berries
    Are all so tempting to me

    Oh my, the time
    It goes so fast
    I must be on my way

    But fear not friend
    I shall return
    Please……Have a beautiful day.

    Your photography is absolutely beautiful. Completely 'other worldly' and thank you for doing this for us all. I enjoyed my visit very much. I do have to tell you though that while I was scrolling down I could not and I mean could not tear myself away from your bali garden on your sidebar. That crocodile just adds the spark of WOW to it. Love your blog, *smiles* Norma
