***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 ALBUQUERQUE!
I didn’t always, since I’ve lived here my whole life, but that old adage that distance makes the heart grow fonder was true for me, and now I’m back for good. There is really no place like it: it’s beautiful, diverse, just the right size, and I have green and red chile readily available to me all year long.

…because it’s the only city I’ve lived in for my entire adult life (not counting college) and it has so much to offer. Also, because there are no skyscrapers. I think that makes the city so much more beautiful than other cities in the U.S.

“I LOVE CHARLOTTESVILLE!” After traveling around the world and to all 50 U.S. states, my hubby and I choose to live in Charlottesville back in 1997. To us, it is the. perfect. place. to call home. We love the Downtown pedestrian mall. We love the blue-ness of the politics. We love the three-degrees-of-separation (rather than seven) of knowing people. Even my license plate says: ILOVCVL. Maybe Kimberly will do a Cville City-scape for me….
