almost 3 years ago – Sun, Jul 11, 2021 at 01:57:30 PM

Hello everyone!

Happy Friday! Sorry I didn’t update yesterday, but I was traveling from LA to Indianapolis for Indy pop con! This was my first convention in over a year I had to fly to, so it was a super busy day!!

But I wanted to make a quick update and let everyone know that we unlocked our first stretch goal!! Everyone who pledged $45+ will receive a FREE sticker! :D

We are also SO CLOSE to the next goal!!! This next goal unlocks our expanded guide book! Gonna be adding a TON of pages, because I’m just too excited!

Thank you guys SO much!! This is doing incredible! I am so floored and so thankful <3 I plan on doing a big update and updating the kickstarter page with more art and updated stretch goals once I am home from the convention.

I’ve also been thinking about a stretch goal for a plushie…so stay tuned!! :)

Thank you everyone!!

We Fully FUNDED! + WOW!!
almost 3 years ago – Sat, Jul 10, 2021 at 10:27:58 PM

Good morning, everyone!

Well it was very hard to sleep last night knowing we were SO close to our goal! I knew we were close but I had to go to sleep in order to wake up early today! And I was SO excited to wake up to see that we were WELL BEYOND our funding goal!! 

We did it! Thank you SOO much! And in less than 8 hours!

That is just CRAZY!! I am SOO thrilled that you all enjoy this deck as much as I do! It seriously was such a passion project. 


When I first started the deck, I began with The Fool, which I normally don't do. I usually begin with the Minor suits so I can get an idea of what emotions, personality, etc the deck has. Once I get the flow I then move onto the Major Arcana. However in this deck, I had to begin with the Fool. I did a doodle of a chunky little business cat and well...78 illustrations, we are here!!


What happens now?


Well, now that we are funded, we move onto some stretch goals!! I have TONS planned, but only a few listed so far. The first one is at $7,000 which we are getting very close to! This goal unlocks a free sticker for any backer of $50 or more!!


I'm going to be out of town for this weekend, but once I get back, I am going to be working on artwork for the Divination Coin ($15,000 stretch goal) and a few other artworks for the kickstarter. If we are able to fund past $25,000 for this campaign I have some really fun ideas in mind! I've been wanting to design plushies again for a while now, so let's leave it at that!


Thank you SO much!


Again, a HUGE thank you to all of you for making this happen!! I've already begun the talks with my manufacturer to get the cost of everything and begin setting things up. I want to make sure this deck is PERFECT for you all!  


Once I am back from out of town, I will be sure to post a bigger update with some more artwork and details on how the rest of the campaign is going to look.  We have 29 more days to go, so let's keep it moving and make some magic!
