From Mistress Antoinette de la Croix and Baroness Shirin of Susa, Kingdom Signets:

We were SUPER busy selecting the winners for the contest, packing up for shipment all the gorgeous backlog scrolls that our talented scribes created and photographing the lot. The category and the winner(s) are listed below. Where there is more than one winner, they are ordered alphabetically.

30 scribes participated in the contest, 28 backlog scrolls were created and another 36 blanks scrolls were submitted for a total of 64 scrolls! Our scribes are the BEST!
