Paulina's birthday party was last weekend & we had SUCH fun. Here are the invitations I made up (with lots of help from Miss P):
{ invitations created using scraps of pink paper & lots of ribbon }
I copied bits & pieces of the wording from the story & from websites I checked out. I scanned in the image of the White Rabbit from my old colouring book from when I was a little girl:
{one of the few items from my childhood which survived!! }
We attached tea bags to the invites so each guest could make themselves a cup in anticipation of the Mad Hatter's Tea Party to come:
{ making tea in Great Aunt Pauline's teacups }
{ something is brewing... }
My sister, Leah, & our fabulous nanny, Arlyn, helped me with the preparations. The party was held in our unfinished basement where the bar will be (one day....). And Paulina & Sebastian were great assistants as well.

{ testing to make sure icing is not poisonous }
{ me & Sebsy prepping }
{ Leensie & Mama getting ready }
Soon we were ready for the arrival of our guests who were greeted with:
{ our welcome sign }
We are ready for our guests....
{ table settings }
{ take a bite }
{ eat me }
{ tea with the white rabbit }
And the guests arrive!!!
