Welcome to Gourmet Pens's very first giveaway! This giveaway is in celebration of a new sponsor and I thought this item would be very appropriate!
Up for grabs is a medium Pelle journal in burnt cognac, as seen here:
Here's how to enter: (Sorry if it's a lot of work but hey, it's a pretty cute journal!)
GREAT NEWS: Worldwide giveaway - this giveaway is open to everyone, everywhere!
1. Leave a comment on this blog post - perhaps tell me what you'd do with a Pelle journal of your very own!
Optional extra entries:
2. 'Like' GourmetPens on Facebook. Come back and leave a separate comment with your Facebook ID. If you have already done so previously, just leave your ID in a separate comment.
3. Follow @GourmetPens on Twitter. Come back and leave a separate comment with your Twitter name. If you are already a follower, just leave your Twitter name in a separate comment.
4. Tweet about the giveaway, linking back to this post and be sure to tag @GourmetPens. Come back and leave a separate comment with your status update. To get the link to your status update, click on "Open" on the right side of the tweet, then click on "Details" at the bottom once it expands.
5. Click here and peruse for a pen/pencil/marker/crayon etc that you would want to use in your very own Pelle. Come back and leave a link to the item of your choice in a separate comment.
Think of each comment like a ballot put in a draw - if you write all your entries on one piece, that only ends up being one entry. In total, you are able to leave FIVE separate comments - this counts as five entries in the draw.
All entries must be in by Sunday, April 22 at 11:59 pm CST. Winner will be announced here on Gourmet Pens on Monday, April 23rd and whoever wins will have one week to email me. If that winner doesn't contact me, I'll pick another winner. (Really now. Who wouldn't want to contact me if they won this?)
Good luck!

Hello - I'd use my Pelle journal in a million different ways over the course of it's life! Right now I need a tough, flexible notebook/journal to monitor my recovery from "stupid-leg-itis" , note all the ups and downs, note all my physio exercises (and record my daily physio) sessions - having the Pelle with me from when I get surgery through to my aim of running a 5km race* a year later would be a great asset.
* OK, fun run.... :)
And I follow you on the Twitter :)
@PensPaperToo
Not sure I'm doing this correctly - you're getting a bit too technological for me....I think this is the link to my tweet about your giveaway - if it isn't....it should be a link to twitter or the internetwebthing. @PensPaperToo.

And you think I can choose a single pen???
I randomly picked one from my shortlist of way too many....here you go:

Awesome giveaway, thank you :)
Good luck everyone!
I've been drooling over this journal since it appeared on JetPens. The use for it would be journaling in my case. It has just the posh-vintage-antiquey look that I want.
If I won I would gift this fine journal to my avid-journaler daughter. Thanks!

I have "liked"the facebook page.
Thanks a lot for the giveaway!
I would probably journal with it.
I have followed you on Twitter, and my Twitter name is @karen_x_yao .

I'd use it alongside my tech items for quick notes and frequently referenced info.
Oh, and I'm following you on twitter now (I'm @elpmike)
I would use the notebook to jot down random thoughts I have, pertaining to thesis or blog. Thank you for the opportunity to win!
I am an inveterate journal writer and I'm always in need of a new notebook.
The burnt cognac is my favorite color of the Pelle Journals. I'm not sure how I would use it, but I'd sure like to get my hands on it.
Wouldn't the A.G. Spalding Bros. Mini Fountain pen be a great thing for writing in this journal?
I have LIKED you on Facebook. I am guessing that my Facebook user id is Christy Comstock
I love that journal. What would I do with it?? I am kicking my letter writing hobby into high gear. It would be great to write my letter drafts in.
I would use the Pentel Slicci gels. I have tried the .25 and love the fine point without the smears. I would like to try the 0.3, 0.4, and 0.7 mm, too!
I have always been pretty disorganised, writing important notes on random sheets of paper and then losing them! I'll be starting university halfway across the world this fall, and this journal would be a perfect way for me to finally start being an organised adult!

analogue preservation of idea's, life lessons and memories :)

durable, broad (so it wont show as much when writing while moving) and dont have to be afraid for my life for carrying a pen worth more than my car :)
really do i need yet another journal? I think i would convert it to a daily planner like Patrick Ng did with his TN... since they are about the same size and all....

I would love this journal to collect quotes.
Can't go wrong with a classic!

Burnt Cognac is a very nice colour so I would devote atleast a couple of pages to tasting cognacs in it.
Use it as a substitute for the Traveller's Journal.
The Rotring Tikky Liner would be a good pen to use with the Pelle journal

Thanks for hosting this contest. I've been yearning for one of those Pelle journals for a while now. Hope my name gets drawn!
love writing in small places, such as journals. I tried many of them. This one looks great, because of the type of leather cover. I prefer to write than to write online or e-journal. Thanks for this great gift.

I would love a shiny, beautiful, gorgeous, new multi pen to go with this and I think super silky smooth Jetstream ink would be lovely: http://www.jetpens.com/Uni-ball-Jetstream3-3-Color-Ballpoint-Multi-Pen-0.5-mm-Black-Body/pd/4376
I would fill the Pelle Journal, writing away with the Kaweco Liliput Fountain Pen (http://www.jetpens.com/Kaweco-Liliput-Al-Fountain-Pen-Extra-Fine-Nib-Silver-Body/pd/7503).
Ohh, I would love to use this as my daily journal. It would be a nice switch-up from my usual (and very fountain pen unfriendly) Moleskine.
Just followed you on Twitter :) I'm @angeladamador
I am doing all these optional extra entries! Haha, here's my tweet: https://twitter.com/#!/angeladamador/status/189800608948174848

Alright, last one...my Facebook ID is adamador.
I'd write more... Love the Pelle leather...
What I'd be keen on using to write in such a journal is a Lamy CP11... http://www.jetpens.com/Lamy-CP1-Titanium-Fountain-Pen-Fine-Nib-Black-Body/pd/3618
Gah, I'd definitely use it as a diary and a place to just randomly write things. I love to write!

To complement the Pelle, I would choose a Pilot VP found here: http://www.jetpens.com/Pilot-Vanishing-Point-Fountain-Pen-Fine-Nib-Black-Matte-Body/pd/7246. Equally sleek!
Because it would go great with my brand new Kaweco AL Sport :-)
I can never have enough cute journals/sketchbooks - love it!!
Just followed @GourmetPens on twitter (@concernedowl)
So many yummy things to write with .. I love the thin lines best I think, maybe this
Uni-ball Signo Bit UM-201 Gel Ink Pen - 0.18 mm - Black
I love to carry around a journal with me - to write down song lyrics or inspirational quotes, and draw or sketch beautiful things. My favorite color is orange, so this burnt cognac Pelle Journal is just perfect for me!

I Like you on Facebook. Kitties r teh cute. "Zahra Glassford" is my fb name... obvs much?
If I won this journal, I would fill it with my own custom bound notebooks. I have been searching for a cover like this one for use as my Daily Journal, so if I don't win it, I would surely buy one anyway. Making journals has been a wonderful part of my life for nearly 10 years now. It would be so nice to use this lovely journal to protect my favorite papers.

If I won this Journal, I would write my Daily Journaling with a Black Kaweco Liliput Al Fountain Pen with a Fine Nib. It is the best pen (imho) for journaling while out and about. I have kept a daily journal for over 10 years and I always wanted to try to do it with this pen. I believe it would be great to combine the two for a small sized on-the-go journaling kit.
The pen can be seen Here: http://www.jetpens.com/Kaweco-Liliput-Al-Fountain-Pen-Fine-Nib-Black-Body/pd/7093

And on facebook too https://www.facebook.com/pages/On-Fountain-Pens/277891755627725
What I'd do with this pretty Pelle journal: I'd love to review it on my blog, that would be the first thing I would do. Then I'll most likely use it as a diary, either for travelling or for everyday rants!
And ohhhhhh I've been wishing for a Pilot Prera and this colour looks perfect! http://www.jetpens.com/Pilot-Prera-Clear-Body-Fountain-Pen-Fine-Nib-Translucent-Blue-Accent/pd/6585
Would be nice to clip this on the side of the Pelle Journal and carry both around!
I have never been the sort of person to believe that having an exceptional notebook would make me a better writer, but in light of this marvelous Pelle giveaway, I am beginning to think such an attitude is mistaken. Clothes, as they say, make the man -- perhaps notebook will make the writer.
Hmm, I think I'd be inclined to turn this into a travel journal. Stickers on pages marking places I've been, and each nick in the leather telling a story.
As for pen to use
http://www.jetpens.com/Pilot-Capless-Decimo-Fountain-Pen-18K-Gold-Fine-Nib-Champagne-Pink/pd/2646 I love this one. :)
I would have a companion to the midori notebook I just ordered.
I would use it to chronicle my up move to France. Everything will be included from the highs to the lows. The written word to sketches. It will serve as my memories in future years.
This remarkable journal would be a perfect way to chronicle one's life.
http://www.jetpens.com/Ohto-Rook-Fountain-Pen-Fine-Nib-Silver-Orange-Body/pd/6735
This pen is beautifully compact, making it easy to carry around, and is also a lovely orange, which would match the Pelle perfectly.
http://www.jetpens.com/Ohto-Rook-Fountain-Pen-Fine-Nib-Silver-Orange-Body/pd/6735
This is a gorgeous notebook. If I was so lucky as to win it, I think I would use it for my daily journal, or maybe write poetry in it... or doodle sketches and mandalas... or use it as a book journal... or maybe all of the above if I can't decide!
As for a pen to use in it, how can I choose just one? But I've been looking at this one for quite a while, so perhaps if I win this notebook I'll finally give in to its call:
http://www.jetpens.com/Lamy-Safari-Fountain-Pen-Extra-Fine-Nib-Yellow-Body-Chrome-Clip/pd/1939
I've been debating between a Pelle and a Midori Traveler. My indecision has lead me to having neither.
Already a follower on Twitter - @sph33r
I would undoubtedly try to use this pen in the Pelle if I owned one:
http://www.jetpens.com/Ohto-Fude-Ball-Liquid-Ink-Roller-Ball-Pen-1.5-mm-Black-Body-Black-Ink/pd/6726
If the paper were up to the ink that is. It sort of pours the ink out on the page and that may not work well.
I would write tons of lists and simply pet it everyday. I know it's lovely as I held one briefly last summer and I was loathe to let go...
wow. i would carry this around, even outside my bag, love the color. =)
