Fab Freebie: City Love

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

This week’s TWO lucky winners are… Maria G (who loves Kansas City despite being under 12-15″ of snow at the moment) and Fiona (who loves her hometown of Washington DC so much she even loves the traffic). Congrats you two!

Today marks the seven year anniversary of our move to Richmond, VA. Woo hoo! It’s crazy to think that it has been that long, and to celebrate this week’s giveaway is from a city-minded artist: Kimberly of Albie Designs. We’ve had her charming illustration of New York City hanging in our hallway o’ frames for as long as there has been a frame collection there (my sister bought it for Sherry for her birthday a few years back). And now Kimberly has released a Richmond city print. So whether you want her new RVA work of art, or others from around the country (and even the globe) you’ll get your pick thanks to the $100 gift card that she’s offering up to two lucky winners.

    I love Pittsburgh. I’ve been there once for a college field trip, but my husband and I are huge Steelers fans and we’d love to visit together soon!

    I love Austin because I lived there for 12 years and it’s where we got married. I would love to have a print to hang in our house.

    I LOVE CHARLOTTE! Although my husband and I met in Richmond, Charlotte has become home and where we have decided to stay put.

    I LOVE DC! I live in DC now and it’s where I have been since college, where I have worked, and met my boyfriend. I love it because there’s so much to do, free museums, great food, and I don’t get tired of looking around and the monuments.

    I love Spokane, WA!!

    It is the place where my husband and I “became adults,” and where we realized our love for the outdoors. It was the best time of our lives. Alas, we never should have left. :)

    I LOVE SEATTLE
    It is my home, where I have lived my whole life. As much as I loathe the grey and rainy skies during the fall/winter (and even spring), the summers are absolutely amazing. I don’t think I would ever move. Seattle is a wonderful place to raise a family. It also doesn’t hurt that all my family- parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins (about 25 of us and growing) are all here as well. I love my Emerald City.

    I LOVE ARLINGTON, VA! It’s like going back in time and living in some little town in the middle of a huge metro area. Very friendly. Thanks for the giveaway!

    I LOVE FOUNTAIN HILLS, AZ!

    My husband and I moved here almost 6 years ago, as newlyweds taking a chance and we love this sleepy, little town. Close enough to Phoenix and Scottsdale for fun, but nestled all alone near the mountains — so cozy!

    I love Chicago. It’s where my husband and I went to college and started our lives together. Even though we don’t live there anymore it will always have special memories for us.

    I love PITTSBURGH! I now live in Charlotte, but Pittsburgh is where I was born, raised, and educated, and it will always have a special place in my heart.

    I LOVE Laguna Beach!

    My husband and I vacation in Laguna Beach each summer…and every year we imagine “what if…” we moved there! This year, we get to bring our baby boy with us for the first time — going to be so fun!
