Mad Tea Party 2012 {An Invitation}

One can only guess what is to come, when a certain mad man is found roaming the summer garden for the 5th year in a row!!

Mad Hatter 4

Is it him?

Through the flowers??

I spy that hat!

Mad Hatter 2

Really truly?

Could it mean that the 5th annual Mad Tea Party is around the corner???

Mad Hatter 10

A whisper in the wind.

Followed by –

A slurp of curious flower tea!

A yessssssssssss whips through breezes…

Mad Hatter 7

He clinks tea cups and chats up a storm…

With who? With whom?

Mad Hatter 1

Oh yes, it's true!!

Mad Hatter 3

1865 beckons.

The pen of Lewis Carroll brings us back…

The Mad Hatter sings as he plays!

Mad Hatter 6

It's a hauntingly beautiful tune, can you hear it?

Mad Hatter 5

It speaks of having consulted with the sunflower king about our next tea party!

Mad Hatter 16

Come for tea, oh do please, says he!!

Bring your friends!

Your loved ones!

Oh, anyone you'd like, he exclaims!

But most importantly, bring yourself!!

Notice how yourself, ends in elf?

🙂

Mad Hatter 8

All of a sudden, he jumps out of his seat, and dances!

Mad Hatter 13

We chase him about, deep into the garden…

Mad Hatter 14

As he invites us to the

5th annual

Mad Tea Party!!!

Follow me, he sings out loud…

Ratatat, ratatat!

Mad Hatter 15

Can you believe it is our 5th annual Mad Tea Party???

This is so exciting!!!

Save the date for

Saturday

July 28th, 2012

A huge celebration must ensue, don't you think???

Get out your fancy schmancy pretties!!

Serve treats!!

Put on your extra ruffled bloomers and super fluffy skirts!

Get out your best trousers, and a coat with tails!

Mad Hatter 11

I can't wait to see you through the looking glass…

Here is the flyer to use on your blog:

(Click on image, then simply save it, and use)

Mad Tea Party 2012 Flyer
 

 

Below is the button to use in your sidebar:

Mad Tea Party 2012 Button

 

Wondering what to do if you sign up?

If you are signing up to participate in the Mad Tea Party all you have to do is leave me a comment, with your blog link, stating that you wish to join in…

Then follow these 7 bits of advice (err, rules)…

1)  Share the flyer and/or the button on your blog as soon as possible and link back to me.  I will then add your name to the "Mad Tea Partiers" list in my LEFT hand side bar, and link back to you. 

2)  On the day of the party, Saturday July 28th 2012, please make sure to post a Mad Tea Party post of your own, on your blog, linking to me.  Other partiers will be visiting you on that date. 

3)  IMPORTANT – On the day of the party, after you have your own Mad Tea Party blog post up and running, please leave a comment at my Mad Tea Party post, including your "Actual Party Link."  It will serve as an archive of all partier links. 

4)  Blog hop with the other partiers on the day of the event and have a mad blast!

5)  The party usually lasts two days or more.  Leave your blog post up for a couple of days if you can.  It will take folks several days to make visits.

 6)  For a more enjoyable and easy visit for your guests, please consider removing word verification for comments during the party.  This will make things so much easier for everyone.

7)  Double check the list to make sure your name is on it, if you want it to be :)

Note:  If you sign up, please make sure you post a party post on your blog for Saturday July 28th.  If you sign up and later find that you can't make the event, please let me know as soon as possible, and I will remove your name from the list.

 

 You have lots of time to sign up, right up until the very last moment if need be, we are flexible.

 

If you don't have a blog it's okay, you are invited to visit with us here and at participating blogs on the day of the event.

Can't wait!!

Mad Hatter 17

I hope you can make it!

I am so happy to be able to host this event for a 5th year!!

Let's make is a mad blast!

I am giddy wacky excited!!

Thanks for being so great!!

If you'd like, you can visit past Mad Tea Parties here.

 

Love, Vanessa

  17. I am smiling from ear to ear like the Cheshire Cat!!! Whoopie! The Mad Tea Party… Yes! I want to participate…
    Your party usually falls on my brother Troy’s birthday, June 26 or there about, this time it is falling on my sister Nancy’s birthday and also the day my husband proposed to me so many years ago…A perfect day for celebrations and tea parties!!! Thank you for the five weeks to prepare for it. Oh, and I noticed your magnifying glass on the portion of the book that said ‘they have been ill….very ill.’ and I immediately thought of how appropriate to find a ‘fitting’ thought right in the very depths of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ as you were very ill not so long ago. Glad you are getting back to your normal s’elf’ again. I do so love looking forward to this splendid Mad Tea Party!!!
    This week has flown…I don’t know where it has gone! And it is exactly midnight so I must not turn into a pumpkin…must go to bed!
    =^..^=
    The Cheshire Cat just stretched and yawned…he is ready for the festivities!

  18. Oh! My ears and whiskers! I almost forgot to mention Mr. Lovee aka The Mad Hatter…I love it when you guys go ‘all out’ for the announcement of the Mad Tea Party…it’s almost as fun as the party itself!
    hugs,
    ; )

  19. Wooohoooo…i love it and i´m lucky to be a part of this Mad Tea Perty again…my second time…yeah….we have fun again…see you at the Party.
    Have a great time

    Don’t get to see many pictures of you so it was a treat to see your lovely face!

  101. Susan G says:

    Ok Mr. and Mrs Fancy Twist! You know I am soooo in! but it will be broiling hot so I may have to think about this long and hard. This may be the last summer my mom is with us. So I had already thought about taking her out for high tea, with my daughters…but that won’t exactly be “mad”, would that still b ok?
    If yes, Please add me. (we may even do our own tea party at her apt. so then maybe we can make paper hats or something)

  124. Hello V, can I join in this year again as well please ?
    I am sorry I noticed this only late-ish, but then that’s part of the whole tea party thing isn’t it ? “I’m late, I’m late.”…but not too late I hope 🙂

  125. Am I too late?
    I mean, I know rabbits are always late, by my nose and whiskers, but I’d really like to be part of this tea party.
    I have tea. And cups. And Miss R White and her Alice doll will attend.
    I’ll post up banners and flyers and get back with the links.
