    Oh, I just LOVE Princess Matilda! She's so sexy with all her curves, and her purple dress is to die for :)

    Your peacock makes a lovely waiter, I must thank him for the cup of strawberry milk! (Who could turn down the offer of strawberry milk?)

    Thanks so much for your visit - do come again. I just love making new friends.

    Isn't this fun?

    What a lovely party. Everyone looked so divine, and I confess I am jealous of your peacock! I have always wanted a peacock or two to wander in my garden. I tried strawberry milk for the first time and found it to be as delicious as it looks. Thank you for a magical time.

    I am absolutely enchanted to meet all these talented people at this mad party! But the best is seeing the beautiful thigns you all make (guess I have stumbled on a cricle of craft artists?) it all so beautiful, are you all selling on the web? Sorry, but had little time to check what is everyone doing exactly.. This is just like a cocktail party, all small talk, but hope will get to know all of you better in the next few months. Everything is gorgeous.

    I had a positively pleasant time at your tea party-what a lovely gathering it was. We should do it again sometime soon! I especially enjoyed all the whipped treats and sugary confections. And the butterfly that landed while we were sipping our tea that you captured-the perfect end to a perfect party!
