Fab Freebie: Home Sweet Illustrated Home

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Random.org has surprised us this week and selected a male winner for the first time in foreverrrrrrr (shocking, we know). His name is… Thomas (and he’s looking forward to time off this holiday season). Congrats dude! (Congrats buddy? Congrats fella? I dunno, I’m so used to saying “Congrats ladies” I’m kinda at a loss).

One of our favorite things to give are custom house portraits (we’ve actually purchased two for my parents in the last year – and even bought one for ourselves). So as we enter the giving-est time of the year, we figured it would be fitting to give one of you the gift of a house portrait too. We recently discovered Rebekka Seale’s too-charming-for-words illustrations (Sherry’s ridiculously smitten), so wrangling her for a giveaway was at the top of our holiday to-do list. Happily, Rebekka was game. So she’s here to offer up a gift certificate for a custom house portrait along with the winner’s choice of any art print from her Etsy shop. Feel free to keep them for yourself, or wrap ’em up and put them under the tree for someone else. Note: Rebekka’s all full on house portrait orders until after Christmas, which is why she’s doling out a gift card for one, which can be redeemed after the holidays.

    SEALE ME!!!
    I was just talking to my husband about doing one of these for his parents. Love the idea. We’re going small on Christmas this year, but I can’t wait for my twin niece and nephew to open their gifts.

    SEALE ME! I am sending a Christmas package to my daughter in Istanbul, Turkey. It’s our first Christmas apart. :( Her special gift? A dinosaur-head necklace that replaces one she lost in Ireland in May.

    I’m looking forward to Christmas morning, where even at 26, I’ll wake up my parents and my dad will go downstairs to “check that Santa came” :)

    I’m looking forward to spending time with my family and our new-ish tradition of Christmas Night Family Wii Boxing Smackdown. (releases frustration and burns off the calories from too many Christmas cookies!)

    Seale me! I’m really proud of a sweater that I found for my dad this year – it’s a kind he’s been wanting but can’t find, and I found one at Express for an awesome deal on Black Friday + free shipping + my two coupons *_* Score!

    I’m looking forward to spending time off with my family and watching all of the holiday specials (no matter how corny they are)

    SEALE ME!

    I always love Christmas Eve – just me, my husband, our two girls (3 and 5) and this year our new puppy. Santa drops off a board game while we are at church and we come home to play it – sometimes in new jammies – before they go to bed. A nice quiet family night before the chaos of the big day!

    My hubby is always stealing my e-reader so he is getting his own Kindle for Christmas! (So I guess it’s really a gift for me too! Haha).

    SEALE ME! As silly as it may sound, I look forward to stuffing my precious daughter’s Christmas stocking. She is 3. Thanks so much for such an awesome giveaway! Even a chance to enter it brightened my day. :)
