Party Planning on a Tight Budget

Hi Penelope-
I’m planning a surprise party for my niece's 11th birthday in August, but I don't have a lot of money to spend and am trying to stick to a budget of $100. I'd like to throw a tea party for her, and I was hoping you could help me with some inexpensive party ideas.
