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 SACRAMENTO! I spent 5 years in the Midtown neighborhood of Sac and fell in love with the people, the weather, the fresh produce, the houses, and even the crazy homeless people that wandered the streets and everyone knew their name.

    I LOVE RICHMOND! Because it’s where we bought our first house and because I know I can go to all of the great local stores and thrift shops recommended by YHL! :)

    I LOVE RALEIGH, NC

    Aside from being my home town and where I currently live, it is the perfect place to come home to after traveling anywhere! Perfect weather, perfect people, and perfect place to live!

    I love Indianapolis (where I grew up and currently live)!! But there isn’t one in her shop so I’d go for Chicago – it’s where I lived for a few years right out of college.

    I LOVE AUSTIN!

    I love it because there is so much to do outdoors, the climate stays warm most of the year, there is lots of great food, music, & things to do. Most of my family lives here– we just bought a house in Austin and love it!

    P.S.- I reeeeally need the Austin print, I love it! <3

    I LOVE PITTSBURGH:) SEriously the best city around, especially if you’re a Steelers fan (or into hockey, soccer, and baseball). It’s a big city that doesn’t feel TOO crowded. I love it!

    I LOVE RICHMOND! It is a great city with culture and arts but it is still a small town too! It has southern gentility mixed with a cool hipster edge.

    I LOVE ST. LOUIS!

    Born and raised, but I love it so much. My fiance and I will need to move away in a couple years for his job, but we plan on moving back ASAP so we can raise our kids in this amazing, family-oriented city. Plus, practically everything here (zoo, museums, brewery tours with tastings) is FREEEEEEE!

    I LOVE SAN DIEGO! It’s where I went to college and lived for 5 years. I especially miss it after this never ending winter we have had up here in Philadelphia.

    I LOVE Gatlinburg, TN. Wen went there last year to celebrate our anniversary and I fell in love with the place. It’s quaint, surrounded by gorgeous mountains, the people were friendly and it was just “the perfect town”. I want to move there!

    I LOVE DENVER! I was born in Minnesota, but moved to Colorado when I was 6 years old, and am a Colorado girl through and through! I love our mountains, the blue sky, the culture, the weather (yes, even when it snows)- just, everything about Colorado, and Denver in particular

    I LOVE ATLANTA! My now-husband went to college there, so it became our second home after my many visits over the course of five years!
