Fab Freebie: Home Sweet Illustrated Home

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Random.org has surprised us this week and selected a male winner for the first time in foreverrrrrrr (shocking, we know). His name is… Thomas (and he’s looking forward to time off this holiday season). Congrats dude! (Congrats buddy? Congrats fella? I dunno, I’m so used to saying “Congrats ladies” I’m kinda at a loss).

One of our favorite things to give are custom house portraits (we’ve actually purchased two for my parents in the last year – and even bought one for ourselves). So as we enter the giving-est time of the year, we figured it would be fitting to give one of you the gift of a house portrait too. We recently discovered Rebekka Seale’s too-charming-for-words illustrations (Sherry’s ridiculously smitten), so wrangling her for a giveaway was at the top of our holiday to-do list. Happily, Rebekka was game. So she’s here to offer up a gift certificate for a custom house portrait along with the winner’s choice of any art print from her Etsy shop. Feel free to keep them for yourself, or wrap ’em up and put them under the tree for someone else. Note: Rebekka’s all full on house portrait orders until after Christmas, which is why she’s doling out a gift card for one, which can be redeemed after the holidays.

    “SEALE ME!” what are you most looking forward to giving this holiday season?

    hmmm, I really don’t know. Gifts are great, but I think it has more to do with giving self, giving time, so we (family) can all be together. :)

    I always love the family time that comes with the holidays. Everyone always seems to be able to put aside differences and just relax at Christmas!

    I was hoping to give one of these pieces of art to my dad for Christmas, but since I hopped on the bandwagon late, I am thinking about saving it for Father’s Day. I would also love to have pictures done of all the houses we’ve lived in.

I would love to win this gift certificate b/c I plan on getting a painting of the house I grew up in to give to my parents as a gift on my wedding in September! I love the idea of giving these as gifts to parents and got the idea from Sherry and John!!!
