CONGRATULATIONS!! We have a winner!! Thank you all for your sweet wishes and thoughtful comments! I loved how so many of you want to learn calligraphy for service-oriented purposes.
I chose sort of randomly. I just scrolled to a random page of comments and picked my favorite (because it’s my birthday and I can). I love that Meghan wants to do things for others. So I chose her.
Meghan’s comment: I will use my art of writing calligraphy to personalize 2014 planners and notebooks and have a sale in my school for the benefit of the families who were affected by the flood and the earthquake here in the Philippines. My schoolmates can get personalized items with their calligraphed names on them; they also helped put smiles on the victims’ faces.

So many things I could do with this! I’d love to make pretty prints!
I have a friend that I would LOVE to give this gift to!
I would use it for holiday cards!!
I could definitely use this for my business!
My handwriting could use some help!
AMY WEBBER (webberae02) deserves this set! She selflessly gives her time, money, and creativity to all of her friends helping them plan weddings, showers, and all types of celebrations! Winning this set would probably be the first time in awhile she has gotten something for herself to play around with!
Can we give this to someone as Christmas gift? That’s what I’d love to do with it!
What a great giveaway! I’d love to learn calligraphy
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I’d love to make pretty cards.
I’ve always loved everything to do with handwriting. This would be so fun to win!
I would LOVE to win this! I have been asking my hubby to get this for me – for Christmas, for Valentines, For Mothers Day, For my Birthday and again for Christmas. I don’t think he gets the hint.
If I won, I would definitely start sending snail mail more. I would make some beautiful art for my home and maybe start and etsy shop?

WHAT. Happy birthday! Crazy that you have been doing it that long. Kudos to you for not getting burnt out and continuing to do what you love enthusiastically.
Uh, greatest giveaway ever! I would make shweeeeet posters and stationary sets and give them as gifts. Also, I would probably jump up and down squeaking to my engaged friends about doing all of their invitations.
Following via facebook, oooof course.
Aaaand it would be my pleasure to follow you on pinterest! You can find me at pinterest.com/chloetate :)
After I complete the course, I will design my own holiday cards and address them with my lovely new script. I really hope I win!
Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

I would love to learn to calligraphy! I’ve been itching to try it for ages. As a graphic designer, I think it would be an amazing skill to add to my arsenal. I’d love to get into making hand lettered stationery. I’m such a sucker for it I’d love to contribute to something I love so much!
I would write love letters to my husband! They should be as pretty as our love is.
