This party by Estonian designer <a href="http://www.tm.ee/">Marlen Kärema</a> proves that you don't need a lot of money (or licensed characters) to have a child's party. It also proves that you can have fun while keeping things elegant.

All you need is black and white tape, colored paper and a sense of play. Ahoy!
