Jack made a mistake at the party.

And Mary said: It is Jack to blame.
Would Mary just respond with "Jack to blame"?

In situations like Mary points her finger at Jack.

@oristarA,
Izzy's example is good, but if you want to use the word "blame" in this situation (at a party), "Jack is to blame" is too formal and legalistic. Mary would more likely point her finger and say, "Blame it on Jack" or just, "Blame Jack."
