Last week we showed you a wonderful project by a group of Lithuanian members, who designed and printed their own postcards. They offered to send 16 lucky postcrossers a postcard from their special set… but the response was so overwhelming, they had a lot of trouble picking the winners, and therefore decided to increase that number to 45! :D
So, without further ado, the members who will receive a postcard from Lithuania are: qvovadis, AnaPinto, pierrev, strummer, MrPooney, famvanrems, tiira, Kazoline, budzin, milko, SueJames, Kirst, drup, leojus, niteshyft, cinghiospol, hulottati, Mayangiras, neitrino, Roo17, vchera, TinTin, GSD, SilentSilence, araneia, arti_baki, hillie67, Ilona500, Hansgom, geekerella, ARod26, PoppySu, signhild, Olha_K, diome, emma-cole, sofree, ceoramalho, mahoema, wikinet, MiniP, rhackett, only_rose, Dechen and zie.
Congratulations everyone! And a big thank you to this group of postcrossers, for their generosity!
On a somewhat related note, another group of postcrossers from Lithuania is currently working on convincing their postal services to make a Postcrossing stamp. If you’re Lithuanian and want to help this idea move forward, please join them on this Facebook group. Thank you!

this was such a nice competition, to put one postcrossing-country in the spotlight.
I enjoyed reading and learning all about Lithuania. It's ranking higher on my wishlist to visit.
Cool, how they increased the number of gifts! And I think the number of comments at this article was quite a record, wasn´t it?
Thanks for choosing me! i'm looking forward to the card!

Thank you so much, I too have never won anything. And I too will be sleeping under my letter box. My children love that I am excited about post crossings now they run to the letter box to see if I have one or not now they will be extra excited as will the lady that i nurse. Thank you again to the people that organized this

Congratulations to the ones who are going to receive such a special card ! And to the Lithuanian members: Keep up the good work !!!
thanks :)
Awesome! I can't wait to get the card, thank you guys
Aciu Aciu! :-)
No winner from Poland? These days, I am hardly surprised... :>. And there were soooooo many kind and thoughtful Polish entries which showed first-hand knowledge of Lithuania and its history. I am disappointed in you, guys.
Group for post stamp is same :)
Congratulations to the winners! :)
I've never won anything yet, but I'm going to participate in the giveaways - I believe it will happen to me someday, too :)
to Marynia88:
It was a random selection without peeking into the profiles and nationality.
If you are really interested in the cards, I will share some with pleasure - just send me a message with your address :)
Thank you so much, I cannot wait to see the card. It will be my first received card from Lithuania :).
Yay, Thank you! Totally turned my day around! I can't wait to see my card, it'll be my first from Lithuania as well!
Thanks!! I'm excited to reveive a card :-D
THANKS to everyone who participated! We didnt expect so much attention. AČIŪ! This contest wasnt last one if postcrossing's chiefs will aloud to us make more :)
P.S. Riga is very nice city but it is LATVIA's capital :)
Hi Nevasara, another Lithuanian user has written to me now, so I acknowledge that I jumped to conclusions too quickly. But I don't think my entry was that good, I meant I liked other Polish posts. If you are up for a swap, we can always exchange postcards, since your new set of Lithuanian cards looks really lovely :).
Thank you very much!!!! I'm looking forward to the card!!! :)
Ah thank you! So nice to recieve a card, maybe to practice the language and bring the memories about Lithuania back!
Awesome! Thank you very much. It was unexpected :) and I am pleasantly surprised. You idea is inspiring! Great work!
thank you so much :)Postcrossing rocks! and Lithuanian, you're great!
You've made my day! Thank you!
thank you thank you..wow, i'm the lucky one..yay!
Dear Marynia88,
I beg Your pardon for being this rude but don't You think that You are being a bit... well, overdid? :) Yes, I agree that there are no Polish users that won BUT if we start counting all the missing nationalities...
There are up to 200 countries with hundreds of nationalities and if all of them would start crying and saying such things as 'I'm disappointed in you' because none of their people were selected as winners, there would be, you know, chaos.
Polish people's knowledge was, as you said, fist-hand because Lithuania and Poland share pretty much united history and are neighbours. It's kind of duty to know the facts about your neighbour well.
Once again, sorry for so rude answer of mine. I didn't want to insult neither You nor Polish people :)
And for all the winners — your answers were GREAT!♥
Thank you for your offer. I'll be waiting for this special postcard im my mailbox!
Aciu! ありがとうございます!! Thank you!! And good luck with the rest of the project :) You've made my day :>
Arh, I've just remembered that the people I worked with from Lithuania, taught me how to count but I can only remember du and penki !! LOL!!
Sorry:) I mean that I was happy! Did not notice that my mother's profile was logged in..:)
Super!!! Jus nerealūs!! Keep going and happy postcrossing using beautiful cards ;)
Congrats for the increased number of winners, it means we postcrossers are really good!
THANK YOU very much! I can't believe it, it's the first time I win something from the postcrossing giveaways :D
You have my vote for a new Postcrossing stamp! It would be great. ^^ (I'm Dutch speaking, so I can't read the facebook page.) And congratulations to all the winners.
Aaaah, I'm so excited! Thank you to postcrossing, and to the people who organized the competition!
Emxx

I received my postcard today and think it is fabulous! It is a black and white photo with a child on tiptoes reaching up to kiss her mother, who is very elegantly dressed.
Thank you very much, it made my day!
