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.

I would be able to make some beautiful cards for the holidays and invites for birthdays…we have several birthdays in the fall and winter and so I think this would help me create more professional cards in less time…
Wedding, wedding, wedding! I need to make invites, and food labels, and escort cards, and favor tags…so many things! This would be uber-helpful, and so classy.
I love sending out cards and I would most def. use this for party invites! There is just something so classy about letterpress invites and I want to be classy!
I would LOVE to use it to make tons of note cards for every occasion and holiday! And I would use it to send random notes of inspiration and encouragement to my creative friends!
Cards, Scrapbooking, decorating. Really there are a ton of things I could use this for! So cool!
love the L!

Holiday cards, definitely. The Jubilee printing plates…swoon!
Ok, this is so cool! Birthday cards, place settings, love notes…so many fun things to make! Love it!
If I won that machine I think the first thing I would do is make some fun calling cards. Then thank you notes. Then recipe cards. And then a million other things. This is an amazing giveaway!
Oh my. I am going to cross my fingers and my toes in hopes that I might win this one…I actually just saw this product for the first time in Hobby Lobby last week. I looked at it for ages…
I would use this for my wedding :)
I think the question is, “What wouldn’t I do with the letterpress machine?” Ha. But if you have to have an answer, I guess I could start listing things . . . cards, envelopes, invitations, announcements, anything I could think of, really.
Hey Melissa!
I would make business cards for myself and probably some cute holiday postcards to send to loved ones. Love your site and this great product!!
Invites to my holiday party!
I would give this to my sister for her birthday or Christmas, both of which are coming up. She has been taking letterpress classes for the last few months and has the largest collection of paper products known to humankind. She is also SO generous I can’t even express it, and I would love to give back to her for all the patience, time, energy, and resources she’s given me.
That Christmas card above is gorgeous! I need to make a whole mess of them.
are you kidding me right now? my favorite things to make are birthday cards, wedding cards, and shower cards. i also would DIE over some new business cards for my photography. i would then go crazy making invitations, little cards to attach to favors, love notes for my hubby, etc. such an amazing giveaway!
Wowie. I will make: Business cards; Greeting cards; Theme party coasters; All of my friends jealous.
i think i need this more than anything!
I WOULD DO EVERYTHING WITH IT.
I am literally salivating right now. This thing is gorgeous and looks really versatile.
I want, I want! ;D
What an amazing opportunity! There really is so much one can do with this — calling cards, tags, greeting cards, invitations. So much fun!
What an awesome giveaway! I would use it to make some beautiful cards and embellishments for scrapbook pages!
I love holiday crafting!! I would love the Jubilee plate!! How awesome is your blog and this giveaway!!
I would love to use the Everyday for decorations, gifts, and cards.
In addition to cards and little book pressies for my niece (who loves to draw), I’d try letterpressing onto velvet and other starched fabrics for my multimedia crafts.
I would *love love love* to have all of this, but especially the Baby printing plates, as someone I know just may have some news to share very soon and would need little announcements to share their good news :)
I can’t possibly imagine owning such a piece. Oh the possibilities for what I could do are endless…. Where to begin. I would just be thrilled and probably spend days (and nights) just trying out anything that came to mind. Pick Me!!!!
I would make Christmas tree decorations!
Holiday cards for sure! Man you are having some wonderful giveaways!
I love the everyday Damask printing plate, but of course which one wouldn’t I love to have?? I think making some prints out of this plate would accent my bedroom in my new apartment really well!
I would use it to make cards to send to my grandmother!
I can’t even begin to talk about what I would do with this. I’ve been so into letterpress prints lately, and I can’t even imagine having my own! I’d definitely pick up the Halloween plates because I’m obsessed with throwing a Halloween party every year. But I’d probably have to collect them all for making cards and things all year long!
Oh mercy you weren’t kidding. This is such a great giveaway!!! I would love to use this to make personalized notecards — I love notecards. You can never have too many. I would also use it for invitations. I would use it for anything and everything I could. I LOVE it!!!
I love this letterpress and would use it for everything- party invitations, business cards, holiday cards, etc..
I would love to make my handmade cards more beautiful with a letterpress.
This would be perfect with the holidays coming up. i would send out home crafted cards to everyone!
Amazing giveaway. I would love to make cards with all the L press loot. I do my best to make fun, individual cards by hand for birthdays, babies, holidays, etc. but this would really take it to another level. How much fun it would be to have all these goodies to use to create new things.
Their jubilee set is perfect for Christmas cards! I love making my own cards to send out! Thanks for the giveaway!
Oh my goodness. What wouldn’t you do? I’m not super crafty so having something like this would totally help me be more creative. Besides cards I’d like to try out some decorative prints for my kids’ rooms.
I would definetly use the letterpress to make Christmas cards. I LOVE Christmas cards! :)
This would be a great Christmas present for my wife. She has been in the letterpress industry for years, and would love a way to do it from home.
I’d love to use this machine to make cards and notes for people to brighten their day!
I would love to make my first-baby announcement. It’s such a great tool for it!
How exciting!!!
I would *love* to use the L Letterpress to make some baby announcements for our little baby on the way, who maybe just maybe will be a little girl this time!
