Giveaway: 6 prints from Matouenpeluche

Happy Friday!  This weekend's giveaway comes to us from the very talented Sam of Matou en Peluche.  Sam's work is simply exceptional and I bet most of you are already familiar with it (she's been featured here before).  Sam is incredibly talented, prolific, creative, humble and kind to boot. I've been following Sam's blog and shop since I started blogging and I can tell you that her work only gets better and better.
Sam is offering 6 small prints (4x6) to the winner of this giveaway.  If you've been wanting to start an art wall or are looking for prints to fill it out, this is definitely the opportunity for you.  I have two of Sam's prints in my bathroom and they make me smile every morning when I get ready for work (that is no lie).
How to enter? (up to 3 entries)
1.  Visit Matou en Peluche and tell me what you like. This entry is mandatory to win.
2. If you're a regular reader of D&OC you get a second entry. Just let me know how you follow.
3. Blog, Tweet, or Facebook about this giveaway and let me know you did.  Make sure to leave a separate comment!

Yay, I love Sam's work! She's an incredibly talented artist with a fabulous blog. It's so fun to see Sam's new drawings posted on her blog each week (and so tempting too!). I have 6 of her prints, and would love to add to my collection. I have too many favorites to list, but the birds James, Stefan, and My Little Chickadee would look great added to my collection, plus I still need a set of fabulous ladies. The Diana print is one of my favorites too!
