Not only is it a lot of fun to find photos, edit photos or just use magical words in your MAD TEA PARTY post...
it is also so much fun to see what the other players have come up with.

a giant, pink FLAMINGO.
"Oh, Fla....have you seen a rabbit....a rabbit that's
very late for an important date ?"

RABBIT HOLE."

I am here to be WITNESS TO THE FACT that it is
GOOD FOR THE SOUL
to be GROWNUP and act SILLY sometimes
and to
fall into fantasy
every now and then !!!

I did all this over a 2 week period....i loved every minute of it.....
and PLEASE, if I got this classical story wrong....
bear with me...it's been a long, LONG time since I was with
ALICE IN WONDERLAND.
Thank you for this fun party, FANCIFUL TWIST....

Oh Yes! Oh yes! Oh yes!
ReplyDeleteFantasy and magical, are balm for our weary selves! Especially in the world we live in, today.
Pretty and Faerie Land and sparkles and Sprites and Magical Imaginings and Deep Forests and lace and dried roses and twinkling lights and moon beams and sounds of the Woods and .... And anything one can imagine... Are balm for our weary selves.
Thank you for inviting me to your delightful Mad Tea Party!!!! I'm sure you had a ball, doing all this! One thing I miss, with being on a Mac, is not finding a free/easy program, to put sparkles in my photos!!!!!!!!! Oh well, I'll just enjoy those, who can. :-)
Party hugs,
Tessa
...who is off with the Faeries...

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I just loved everything about this. Your photo editing added lots of whimsy and fun, and I agree, it's good to be silly sometimes. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever and creative! The photos just added to the whimsy and wonder of it. Your grandson makes a terrific Mad Hatter, even better than Depp. I am glad that you are having fun! Go have some more that we may peek over your shoulder and catch some of the joy of it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot. Loved every part of it.
ReplyDeleteLoved the story and the pictures were awesome.
