This is the only teapot stamp I have and I like it so I had googled mountains in China. This is Mount LU. In onle of the pictures I saw a table like this with a cup of tea on it. So I made my plank table with Creamy Caramel CS and some copic coloring. I had to draw the tea cups to get anything close to the right scale. This was fun but I got a little caught up in looking at pictures and drawing things. The BG picture is one of the beautiful misty scenes I found online. (Just noticed after posting my card that it looks like the waterfall in the mountains is flowing into the teapot spout. I should have moved it over just a bit. It will water down the tea.)

WOW Pat this is so pretty...what a serene scene. I would love to be at this tea ceremony. You nailed it with wood plank, and the hand drawn cups....fantastic!!

I hadn't noticed the waterfall's position until you mentioned it...it also looks like steam coming out, as does the rivulet above the left cup (which are fabulous, BTW!)

What a lovely mountain setting to enjoy a cup of tea, Pat! Love the hand drawn teacups and teapot on the bench. The bg is beautiful, I noticed the waterfall but wouldn't have picked up on the position so close to the teapot spout if you hadn't mentioned it, ha!

This view from the little tea house in the mountains is so special. As for the waterfall - that teapot will always be full - just hope that it is water coming from a thermal pool. This is a great card.

Great perspective in this scene with the Teapot & cups in the foreground and the mountains fading away into the mist. I had to giggle when you mentioned the waterfall pouring into the teapots spouts watering down your brew . . .I didn't notice that until I saw it in your description. Now when I glance up it's the first thing I see - the power of suggestion . . .
