I’m totally squealing with delight over this giveaway. Oh. My. Gosh. At Alt in January I had the awesome opportunity to see this machine in action & meet a couple of the lovely ladies behind the creative scenes. I’ve been drooling over it ever since.

Good luck!!
I would first use it to make a cool paper banner for my sewing room with inspiring words. Then I had this idea of making a couple of prints to decopauge onto small pieces of wood or something to make decorative hanging blocks. Haven’t completely thought it out yet, but that’s the basic idea.
I’m the go to girl for all of my friends and families invites, this would bring it to whole new level! I love the custom plate option, so affordable!
Ohhhhh this is awesome! I am a professional bridemaid and I always open my big mouth and volunteer to make the invitations (shower,bach party,wedding ceremony,etc). this would be magical!!
Ooooh. I would use them to make holiday cards & Christmas present packaging, new business cards, party invitations, self promo…I’d pretty much die of letterpress bliss!
Also, I saw your tweet. Yay!
Ooh ooh I’d use it for everything!
Letterpress is sexy! Adding texture to stationary gives it such a sophisticated twist.
awesome giveaway! I would definitely be using this for Christmas cards!
oh my gosh. what i WOULDN’T do with this genius device!! i don’t think i’d EVER buy another birthday/thank you/christmas/etc card again for the rest of my life…
If I won this, I would help my BF letterpress her wedding invitations!
Ohhhh, I want to make Christmas Cards!!!
That would be a fun thing to use to make party invitations and maybe some business cards.
I have my own cupcake business and this would be perfect for all my branding pieces.
