Sunday came and left and we were left with the hard task of picking a giveaway winner. As with the featured artist (which we have to pick tomorrow) contest, picking a winner is always hard because you guys/gals always link such amazing shops. Yet, we knew what we had to do, so we got our hands dirty and picked our winner. We are proud to announce that the etsy member "Giftbearer" is our winner, with her promotion of "Celiefago's" shop. If people don't remember the rules, just scroll down to the giveaway post and everything will be made clear. Giftbearer will get a free print of her choice from our featured artist, Wade Solowoniuk. We would also like to thank Wade for giving us the print for the giveaway, please check out all these great artists.
