Chic ‘n Cheap Living Contest: Watercolor print giveaway by Cate Parr/Silver Ridge Studio (International)

This giveaway has been in the works for a long time and is the end of my belated blog birthday series of giveaways (happy birthday little blog!)

My pen pal, Cate Parr is the fabulously transplanted English rose that now resides in Los Angeles. She recently became a full-time artist (congratulations!) Cate operates Silver Ridge Studio on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/shop/silverridgestudio) and is one of my favorite artists, fashion or otherwise.
She is graciously giving away a print from her model ink watercolor series. Please see my review of her prints here.

Want a 10% discount off anything in her store? Please e-mail me at cncliving {@}gmail.com to get the code (per Cate’s request, this discount is only limited to the first few people that request it).
