I had this idea so I made two pieces. Both are basically the same, but just a little different. The tea cup and pot stamps are from the Tea Party set from Lila Grey Stamps. The words "joy", etc are from SU!. I love how it really does look like the tea pot is pouring out JOY.
The base paper is a tag book that I received from Rubber Paws. I used CTMH alcohol markers to color in and shadow the cup and pot. The sentiments are both written using a black Sharpie.
I could have stopped there, but with my mixed media frenzie in full force, it just looked too clean. So I added white acrylic paint and a punchinella stencil to add the white dots all over. Then I used a fine point BIC pen and just sort of squiggled around.
Here are the two together:
And each one alone:
