Ready for a Tea Party

Tea parties make my heart sing.  So, in honor of Risa's Friday Tea Party , I am getting out the "good stuff." I am now feeling extra excited for my and Cinderella's very own real life Valentine's Day Tea Party ( Queen of hearts, Mad Hatter tea party to be exact). 

The candy tree is getting ready, for Risa's lovely Tea Party.  Get out the Tea cups and sparkly jewels…A Tea party is the perfect time to drench yourself  in your fancies that you rarely get to wear.

I think I am going to bring two of my favorite little friends that live in my Branch Tree.  They are from FG & Co., and so lovely indeed.

I even collaged myself into a little FG&Co. card to share a big cake plate of cherries.  I am also wearing my sparkly headband (I think it's a stray from the eighties) and added a victorian flower.  Oh yes, and I am bringing my own Tea cup…See it there??

I must make sure all the tea cups are clean…And then, try to choose some jewels…Maybe my huge "diamond" ring…The one that lives in the glass case….

Well, I think I wore that big honker of a ring to my last tea party, so maybe I should try something else this time….

Oh yes, now I think I have some jewels all picked out!!!! That is the funnest part!!! I never let anyone have a tea party at my house without jewels. And, if they don't have any, then they have free reign to choose from my vast collection…I think I am going to do extra sparkly for Risa…

Ah, yes.  I am feeling very very glam.  What FUN!!!!!  I wish we were in the Victorian era and we could dress up and wear these jewels everyday….Although, I must say, I am known to go over the top a tad-bit, in my daily jewel choices…hehe…As for attire, I think I will wear my orangy lacey skirt….
