Who's the winner of our October prize draw?
Last week, we entered the names of all our newsletter subscribers into our regular prize draw and picked one at random to win their choice of any of our prints.
The winner was Laura Barnard from Peterborough, UK! Here's her response:
Well, this is incredibly exciting! I’ve loved that print from the first time I saw it and have recently got married, moved house and have been talking about what prints to put up. So this could not come at a better time and has completely made my day!
Laura chose a copy of our famous Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite print which she's just received:
Words and photos cannot describe how beautiful this print from @kiteprint is (that I was lucky enough to win!). pic.twitter.com/oqatBhrqe0
