sunny give-away

pve design illustration for jmclaughlin

There is something about the sun that makes me feel happy (along with nearly 400 followers!). In honor of the sun, and a few days reprieve from the snow I am hosting a wonderful give-away from my first sponsor, J.McLaughlin. For many years I have been illustrating for them and they graciously have offered a give-away.

Ladies and Gentlemen, you are invited to go to the J.McLaughlin site and look at new arrivals. Select the favorite item you would love to win.\The winner will be announced on friday. (Randomly selected!)

Winner is Kelley from drawworm!

(posted friday 2-19-2010)

What would make your day a little warmer? Leave a sunny comment and become a pve follower if you are not following already!

what a generous offer from a beautiful store! I often walk by the store and look in longingly but my pocketbook doesn't agree with my taste LOL. If I were lucky enough to win, I would pick one of their beautiful needlepoint belts - probably the green chasing monkey design 50248 because it's SO cute!!

Jackie said...

Love your illustration! My favorite is the Firenza silk dress in the blue and white print. Stunning!!
