Learn something new every day: be curious. That’s the theme of the essays that I was assigned to illustrate for Patti Digh’s latest book: “What I Wish For You“. I used my own ceramic work from the Dream Archives series, combined with my digital Ztampf! works to create the illustration. Can you tell just from the photo below from which kits are they? The elements I used here came from 2 obvious kits. The first 3 persons who got it right will receive $3 coupon to Studio Ztampf! Shop ;). Post your answer in the Comment field of this blog post. You have until noon time of Monday, 25 April 2011 (US EST/ New York Time Zone) to post in your answer!

What I Wish For You - Patti Digh

Now, the wonderful little book itself is filled with heartfelt insights for any age, old and young, at any stage in their life. As her older daughter prepared to graduate from high school and fly away to lead a new life as a college student Patti reached out to readers of her popular blog, 37days.com to gather wisdom from the far corners of the earth to help guide her. She asked: “What advice do you wish you had heard – really heard – when you were graduating from high school or college? What words could you benefit from hearing again?“. The result is this book, an invaluable collection of poignant wisdom from regular people from all walks of life for every one. Get yours now!

I have also been one of the contributing artists for two of her previous books:

hi Fhung! this may be a repeat, the first time looks like the comment did not submit…Adventouriste is used for the wings & Nocturne Delights for the overlays is my guess.

Adventouriste and Lumoz Whimzy

Maddie Says:

Hi Flung,
I guess it’s from Lumoz Whimzy and Adventouriste Steampunk Paper and Adventouriste Wingz.

I read the “Four Word Self Help” and “Life is a verb”, and I am looking forward to read “Creativity is a verb”. I saw your artworks in those books and looking forward to see the new one.

Anita Says:

First, congratulations! I figured the first one to be Adventouriste as well but am having a hard time with the second. I recognize it but can’t place it. I think I may have even had it at one time! I have a lot of your stuff. And I lost a bunch of my older kits when my external hard drive crashed recently. I had just moved some things over briefly from my laptop to make room, and of course in that moment, without a secondary backup, the drive crashed!

Fhung Says:

Thanks, Anita! And I am so sorry to hear about your HD crashing! Ouch!!! If you still have the order numbers, perhaps I could look them up and see if it is possible to issue you a re-download coupon or something…

Fhung Says:

Yay! Congrats to Bianca and Maddie who have gotten it right! the metal wings are from “Adventouriste” and the sparkle overlay is from “Lumoz Whimzy”! I’ll email you both the $3 Coupon Prize soon :).
Thank you all for participating!

--bianca Says:

Yay! Thank you so much! Just what I needed, a little lift to inspire me to scrap. BTW, I adore Lumoz Whimzy and if you ever choose to make more general glowing overlays, I will be first in line to buy them!

Fhung Says:

You’re most welcome, Bianca! Thanks for your support – more glowing overlays will sure be available later :). Have you seen Sparkle Sprays Overlays?
