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 DENVER! My husband and I met here after moving from North Carolina and Tennessee, and we love it, even with the foot of snow currently on the ground! I think it would be cool to have pieces of art that showcase the places we’ve called home.

    I LOVE RALIEGH, NC because it is the first place my husband and I lived after we first got married over 3 1/2 years ago. It has a special place in our hearts. :) It has become home.

    I love Ann Arbor for it’s unique atmosphere, restaurants, and culture. I love Detroit because it’s the underdog of cities and it has so many cool people, nooks and crannies, and spirit.

    I LOVE JARABACOA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC!
    My husband and I met in the DR and were married in Jarabacoa. His family lives nearby and he spent most of his childhood there.

    I LOVE WASHINGTON D.C.

    My husband used to live in DC and introduced me to it when we first started dating–now it has a special place in my heart.

    I LOVE TOFINO

    Why? It’s where a little town is nestled into thick green forest which meets sandy beach next to blue ocean.

    In my opinion, it’s the most beautiful place in the world.

    My boyfriend and I used to sneak off to Vegas every Fall for a little getaway just the two of us. We came to love it so much we got married there last Fall and it was perfect! We LOVE our home near Philadelphia, but Vegas will always always be special to us and I think we’ll be making great memories there for years to come.

    I love WINNIPEG! It is not the city I was born, but it is the perfect mix of homey, artsy, and it has a little something for everyone (and now even an Ikea!). While there are a ton of cities I would love to visit, I am delighted to be so content where I am. Even in the coldest of cold winters.

    I love my tiny hometown of Hiltons, but I dream of spending more time in London and Paris. I was able to travel to both last year, but it was far, far too short…

    I LOVE TULSA! It’s home and I can’t imagine living long-term anywhere else, but I also love Chicago, Paris, Honolulu, Austin, NYC, San Francisco and London…just to name a few. Ha!

    I love Bonn, Germany. It was my first city I lived in while in Germany, I lived there for almost 6 months in the middle of the city and absolutely loved being so close to the Rhine River and the fresh farmer’s market everyday in the city center.

    I LOVE TOKYO!!!

    Just because it’s so different than Toronto but still oddly felt like home when I was there on vacation :)
