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 New Orleans, LA because that’s where I was born. My Southern roots will never go away, no matter where I am!

    I love NYC! We spent three months there this fall, after three years on the Caribbean island of Tortola. It was the best life experience ever and such a departure from our life in the British Virgin Islands. Thanks for sponsoring the giveaway! Fun fun!

    I LOVE NYC!!!

    I dream of living there, instead of uptight DC four hours south. When I’m there, I walk aimlessly, looking up at the soaring glass. I stuff my face with apple cider donuts from the Union Square farmers market. I stroll the Literary Walk in Central Park and sit on Jim Henson’s bench. I walk and walk and dream.

    I love Richmond.

    Never thought this city would bring me so many wonderful things. Now I’m surrounded by family, friends and awesome neighbors. Life is good.

    I LOVE PORTLAND (MAINE)! It’s where I’m from, where I returned after 9 years in NYC, and where I reconnected with my husband after 13 years.

    I LOVE FAYETTEVILLE!

    Of all the places I’ve moved and lived in my life, this is the city I always go back to because it is the heart and soul of Northwest Arkansas (my beloved state) and the home of my Arkansas Razorbacks. Woo pigs!

    I LOVE MINNEAPOLIS!

    I LOVE MONTREAL! we need some Canadian representation of these beautiful prints. Montreal is where I went to school and worked for 8 years and I miss it terribly – a print of Halifax Nova Scotia would be lovely too, however I see the city everyday.

    I love FORT WORTH!
    Born and raised in Fort Worth, and couldn’t imagine living anywhere else. Friendly people, fun events, and just a great place to raise a family.

    I LOVE JACKSONVILLE, FL!
    It’s where we lived for a little over two years, both of my boys were born there, and our best friends still live there! Miss it!

    I love Charleston!
    Such great memories of traveling there as a kid. We’d camp in tents and ride our bikes to the beaches or to the downtown area with all the beautiful homes. <3

    I LOVE NORMAN (Oklahoma)!!!

    It’s where I went to college. It’s where I met my friend who introduced me to my husband. It’s where we got engaged, and it’s home to some of my favorite memories and even some of my favorite people. It’s where my favorite place is to get frozen custard, and it’s an amazing place to watch a college football game. Even though I only make it back once or twice a year (if that), Norman always makes me feel like myself, and it will always feel like home.

    I LOVE CAYE CAULKER VILLAGE!

    It’s technically not a city, but it does take up a whole island in Belize! It was one of the stops on our honey moon and it totally rocked. It’s hot, has excellent snorkelling and delicious food.
