***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.

My son and daughter were both born here, and my dh and I have lived here since we married 13 years ago. It’s the place where I finally put down roots after moving a lot as a child (military family).

I LOVE WASHINGTON DC! After moving here 10 years ago for school, it really feels like home. It’s the perfect sized city – all the benefits of a big city with a small-town feel, and you can be surrounded by nature in less than 15 minutes. And driving past the Capitol, White House or monuments NEVER gets old.
