Hello everyone! I've been working on designing the backer's choice stretch goals. Kitsune + Foxfire and Eastern Dragon + Water were the themes chosen by the community for these additional collections that your support helped make possible!


-------------------------------------

The Kitsune set has been drawn and you can see the sketched version below. I'm currently working on the final linework and colors for this set. When complete, this collection will have two colorways available. As far as addons go, the mini pin designs will also be available as stitch marker choices, and I'll be using the deluxe pin illustration for another design option for a sticky note pad.

The projected sizes for these designs are:

-------------------------------------

The Eastern Dragon and water theme is currently being drawn, and should be available sometime next week. 

Thank you for supporting or following this campaign! I hope you have a great day!

Thanks to your amazing support, we’ve received the Stretch Goal funding needed to produce two additional collections beyond the Wyvern Wind and Phoenix Fire pins. I have several themes I’m enthused about, and backers get to choose which two will move forward. Potential themes include Gryphon Rime, Dragon Tide, Kitsune Blind, and Unicorn Glade.

At this time I am not planning on adding additional stretch goals ***. Once backers decide on the themes for the two stretch goal pin collections, I am going to set to work quickly to sketch, share, and finish the designs so you can view them before the campaign concludes. Keeping the stretch goals limited helps to ensure that the production and fulfillment of this campaign stay on track so we have the best chance fulfilling on schedule so you get your pins in a timely manner!

*** If I become an amazing art speedster and finish the 3K & 4.5K pin collection artwork before February 5th, we can talk :-)

Pledge options for 3 Variety Pin and 4 Variety Pin have been added, and include a $2 addon discount.

If you are from the UK and want to purchase items after the campaign, we have a new pledge level for you. This pledge level costs $14 and will provide $14 worth of credit when I make a custom Etsy listing for you during fulfillment. Pledging during the campaign makes you eligible for free promotional pins if you meet the other requirements. These requirements are; being a returning backer (Returning Backer), pledging in the first 48 hours (Early Bird), pledging for 3 or more Lore & Myth campaigns (Lore & Myth Collab), or pledging to Dragon Hoard Keepers (Cross Collab Partner).



• When fulfillment begins, you will be contacted and I will create a custom Etsy listing for you. I will add any items you wish to purchase to this listing. Your $14 credit will be applied, and remaining balance for the additional items, shipping, and VAT will be paid through Etsy.

• This campaign previously offered UK folks the option to purchase items after the fulfillment concluded via a custom Esty listing, but had no way to back during the campaign itself. The issue with this was that by doing it this way, UK folks missed out on the opportunity for the free Returning Backer, Early Bird, Lore & Myth, and Dragon Hoard Keepers promotional pins.

We have reached the initial funding goal needed to produce the Wyvern Wind and Phoenix Fire pin collections. (This includes an alternate color variant for each!) Thank you so much to everyone who backed this project! I did not expect us to reach our funding target so quickly, and I'm grateful for the enthusiastic response! 


-----------------------------------------

If we are able to reach $3,000 in funding, we'll be able to produce another set of pins with a new theme. This set will include one deluxe pin, one standard pin, and 2 mini pins. (plus a pendant necklace, earring pair, and additional stitch markers utilizing the standard and mini molds!) I had a lot of ideas on where this campaign might go, and wanted to let the community decide what theme will be designed and produced next.

You can vote for the next theme by clicking here!

This poll we be used to choose what will unlock as the 3K and 4.5K stretch goal themes if they are reached.


-----------------------------------------

A few extra items made their way onto the page since the campaign launched. Sticky notes, a pendant version of the ouroboros pin*, and stitch markers are now available.

*The armadillo lizard ouroboros pin is exclusive for the duration of the campaign to backers who pledge to 3 or more Lore and Myth projects. We were given permission to reuse the same mold for a pendant version.
