***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.

City of Festivals!
We’re on a Great Lake.
We get all four seasons, but less snow and extreme cold than areas even 45 minutes west of us.
We have plenty of our own art and culture (inclduing our famous Calatrava art museum addition), but we’re also just a short car or train ride away from Chicago so we can join in on theirs easily too!

Anissa says
I *love* London. I lived there as a student for 4 months in 2003 and since then my heart has been firmly entrenched in central London, regardless of where the rest of me wanders. I love the vastness of the British Museum, the beautiful parks in spring time, especially the Albert Memorial. I love the pubs and the canals and the people. When I get off the plane at Heathrow my heart starts pounding because I’m finally back.
My husband and I actually had to put a moratorium on visits to London because we’d go whenever we went on vacation, and we weren’t seeing any of the rest of the world!
No matter where I roam, my heart belongs in London. <3
Taryn W. says
