Project Update: Funded + What's Next!
Heyyyyy folks!
Sorry for the radio silence the past couple days. Behind the scenes since the campaign came to a close, I was working on an issue with the processor for payments, related to Big Daddy N and the artwork for this campaign. Thankfully, it's been resolved -- though you may notice things look a little different around here. No need to worry -- nothing has changed, and the pins will look exactly the same. Any visual changes to the campaign are purely CYOA.

Now, with that aside, the fun stuff!
- We raised $2,674 with 88 backers, far exceeding my goal for this campaign! I have to say thank you a million times for this -- art is my full time job, and as a partially disabled person, it truly means the world to have so much support. It allows me to not only keep a roof over my head, but continue doing what I love, and for that I will never be able to express my full gratitude.
- I'll be sending smoke tests for surveys in the next few days! Basically, this will be a trial run of surveys to make sure everything is set up properly. Only a few of you will get these!
- The main surveys will be sent MARCH 1ST, and due MARCH 14TH. Please keep an eye out for the survey to hit your inbox!
- The preorder store will open early next week. There are three pin designs avaliable to be funded post campaign -- Choccy Chip Teddi Graham, Peppermint Magnet, and Swedish Fish Wish. Each pin requires 12 backers to be funded. I had previously stated this would require 10 backers, but I realized I didn't calculate in the cost of platform fees into that number, my bad! These will be avaliable in both the survey and the preorder store!
- We did hit the $2500 incentive goal for a free sticker for everyone! Unfortunately, around 17 of you have failed payments currently. This is common with Pintopia as many pledges pull at the same time, which can cause banks to flag it as fraud. My request to you all is to fix those card issues as soon as possible -- As soon as we get back to $2500 with cards being resolved, I'll let you all know and the sticker incentive will continue as planned! I'll be emailing those of you whose cards have had issues early next week.
Thank you all again for helping make these pins a reality! I'm looking forward to getting surveys started and finalizing my order quantities soon. I hope you all have had a great week, and I'll post another update soon when Smoke Tests go out!

Project Update: DOWN TO THE WIRE! Incentive if we hit 2500!
Yo folks!
It’s THE FINAL COUNTDOWN — there is LESS THAN AN HOUR left for this year’s pintopia!
I’m nearly at the goal I had in mind for this campaign — so, if we hit $2500, I’ll throw in a free vinyl sticker with EVERY PLEDGE!
Let’s end on a high note!! 🎉🎉

Project Update: 48 HOURS LEFT! Creamsicle is UNLOCKED + POST CAMPAIGN GOALS!
Can you believe it? It's the last 48 HOURS for Pintopia, and this campaign!
As a reminder, by pledging during the campaign, you're getting the best possible price for these pins -- My standard pin price is $15, and during this campaign you can get the pins for just $13 each! And, the more pins you pledge for, the more of a discount you recieve!
Additionally, if you pledge for 3 or more pins, you'll get a Konpeito pin for FREE -- and your choice of the regular or shiny variants was unlocked thanks to YOU lovelies who've backed the campaign so far. If you're sitting at 2 pins right now, I'd highly recommend adding on one more -- you'll get 4 for the price of 3!
I'm also officially announcing that... ✨ CREAMSICLE IS UNLOCKED! ✨
Also, don't forget that I am cross-collabing with Itty Bitty Mini Made -- if you pledge to both of our projects at any physical reward tier, you'll get both of these super cute pins for FREE! You'll get Gengar with your order from me, and Sprigatito from IBMM! Check her campaign out HERE!
One last thing -- Some of you have asked about the other three possible designs I revealed during an earlier poll: Choccy Chip Teddi Graham, Peppermint Magnet, and Swedish Fish Wish. I wanted to let you guys know ahead of time that these will be avaliable as post-campaign stretch goals! Essentially, during the period I'll be collecting surveys from you all, you will also have the chance to help fund those designs! All you'll need to do is pledge for them via your survey or on the preorder store. I'll have more info on that when the time comes, but for now here's a sneak peak! (Yes, each pin needs just 10 backers to fund!)
That's all the housekeeping I have for you folks! Let's end this last 48 hours on a strong note -- the Sweets will be on your doorstep before you know it!
Thanks again for all the support,
Katze
