 I was thinking about this whole "Alice in Wonderland" theme for a birthday party! One of my favorite chapters in Lewis Carrolls "Alice in Wonderland" book is the one where Alice goes to the "very merry UNbirthday" tea party with the Mad Hatter, the March Hare and the church mouse. Then I thought why not throw a party now? What a fun surprize for the kids! Shhh... don't tell the kids, I have alot of planning to do!

:)

I made this banner with this theme in mind!

Here are some close ups!

As you can see I used many papers from GCD Studios Homespun Chic Collection by Melody Ross! The bright colors are so fun, perfect for a birthday (or un birthday!) party! I am so glad I save all my extra scraps when I create a layout! I used border punches by Martha Stewart for the edges, inked them with Staz On Ink in Cherry Pink!.  

The stamped images are from Clear Art Stamps. The flowers are coffee filters, punched with a scalloped circle punch and sprayed with a little Glimmer Mist. The acrylic banner is actually two different banners (Birthday Banner and Acrylic Large Banner) combined from Clear Scraps. I ran all the acrylic pieces through my Cuttlebug. 

Aren't the images fun for a party? I am thinking some balloons to match the colors in the papers!!

 Does anybody know where I can find some really big tea cups?

Well I hope you are inspired to do your own project! Maybe you can throw an "unbirthday party"! If you do I want to see your pics! Link it to me!!! And thanks for stopping by!

Oh and here's wishing you a very merry unbirthday!
