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’ve always wanted a letterpress and I think this is the perfect one! Happy Birthday Wishes!
I would like to make cards for all occasions to send to friends and family. There is nothing better than receiving a hand-written note by snail mail.
What wouldn’t I do with this ingenious machine! I just had a baby girl 5 days ago and would love to get creative on a birth annoucement!
I would love to make some baby shower invites (my first ever!) with this sweet little thing.
I am dying to make letterpress cards and prints. I have never wanted to win something so badly, and I never win anything. Pick me! Pick me!
with this letterpress i would create custom stationary and business cards for my new bud of a company.
I’d make and send out holiday cards in a concerted effort for the first time, but then also hopefully make paper goods for the wedding as well.
oh my LOVE! What couldn’t I do with this! If only I could get my logo as a press! I love throwing baby showers, birthday parties and sending out christmas cards. Which one first??? That’s the hard decision.
I’m getting married in June and would love to use this for wedding stationery!
I took a lot of printmaking classes in college and I would love to try my hand at being more precise with a letter press machine to make cards and notecards and lots of fantastic gifts for loved ones.
Win a letterpress machine? Are you kidding? I looked through the available plates a bit and I love that they’re such great designs. I think it would be fun to make a stack of beautiful thank you cards as gifts for new brides or moms. If I won this machine, I’d probably feel guilty not giving it to my book-artist extraordinaire sis.
I have recently fallen in love with making cards. This machine would be amazing to complement my new hobby :) wish me luck!!!
Are you kidding? What wouldn’t I do with this machine?? Note cards, invitations, tags, biz cards… even better that I can have custom plates made.

I love the art of letterpress! This is a lovely machine and I would love to have it to create handtags for my new jewelry line as well as make christmas cards for the holiday.

I particularly have my eye on the jubilee holiday plates. Beautiful designs.
Uncanny! My husband and I were JUST talking how much we’d like to get a letterpress machine. We would happily churn out cards, gift tags, coasters, prints – everything!
