Calm before the storm

Photo Details

Poster: APandi

For today's teapot challenge which will make no sense to you unless you check out the following.

Little did you know that before the Alice in Wonderland premier very sedate and low key invites were mailed. by Johnny Depp's people. Because Lewis Carroll (Dodgson) was among other things a photographer of children and influenced by time spent with friend's children, an early picture of the eventual Alice was included on the invitation.
I made the little invitation, which is symbolic of Alice becoming smaller, out of a scrap of paper. Think this would make a cute child's birthday invite when the London teaparty is finished.
