Today's teapot inspiration was a beautiful light house teapot. Mothermark is holding the teaparty in Peggy's Cove, Novia Scotia which is JoAnne's (JotJot) favorite vacation spot. I can certainly see why - with the relaxed atmosphere and gorgeous scenery (a photographer's paradise for sure). Mothermark booked us accommodations at a lighthouse since all the hotels were booked up (tourist haven that it is and all). We may have to help her negotiate in the future because as part of the deal, she agreed we would catch 42,000 lbs of fish for the lighthouse owners or something like that. We agreed to bring a bunch of fish instead of having to go out on a commercial fishing boat (since that is dangerous - at least it is on that show on TV called Deadliest Catch). I brought quite a few fish with me as you can see because I have Danielle at the Oceanstone Inn booked for three sessions (you can call Danielle at 1-866-823-2160 if you want to book her too). Danielle has studied many different forms of massage, but one of her specialties is Ayurvedic Massage which is from India and she also uses the Suikodo technique which she apparently learned from Master Mitsuki Kikkawa. I have been a little stressed lately and buying, I mean catching, all these fish was hard work!

I just had to come back to see this vision again! How I love this creation of yours. So creative ... I'd love to CASE it, but somehow I can't see myself coloring and cutting a gazillion fishies! Wow this card just blows me away.
