Hard to pick a winner. Great plays on "hour" and "our," great suggeston of variable data printing, and a fantastic entry that just said, "Hi. Me again." But Matt's entry would not only grab "attention." It simply and clearly communicates the big deal in five words.

ATTENTION. You get it here.

Now check out the actual assignment the contest was based on from St. James Mercy Hospital.
