The last 4 days have started!! In this lengthy update: a new pledge level, new add-ons, info if you want to switch pledges, combined shipping, freebie collab pin backing card sneak peek and some other important stuff!
Thank you all for the fun responses on the sketches of the Tomato frog and Fringed tree frog! Tomorrow I'll be meeting up with Roundbirbart and will finish both the frogs. So just keep an eye out on the project page if you wanna see them finished. Don't wanna clutter your mailboxes with so many updates! (Unless, you want me to make Frog Update #9 to show off the Tomato frog and Fringed tree frog! 👀)
With the last 4 days upon us and many questions, so here's some extra information:
The Early Frog rewards are linked to your email of your account. So you can switch to whatever pledge and still keep the Early Frog rewards! Nothing to worry about.
There's one new pledge level: 'all 16 frog pinsThe whole pond'! With this pledge level you can choose 16 frog enamel pin that are unlocked. Fingers crossed we unlock the last two so everyone can choose one of each frog design. This pledge level also contains the extra board fillers set!
The 'All 12 frogs pins' pledge level has been changed to '12x enamel pins' and still active.
The board filler set is now also available as a separate add-on. Previously I mentioned everyone can just choose the 'One frogtastic frog' add-on to also pick the board fillers. But for overview on my end I decided to split this up. 'One frogtastic frog' is only for the frog enamel pins. 'One board filler set' is only for one set of board fillers. Please switch add-ons if necessary! Important: The tadpoles cannot be purchased separately. They are only available as one set of 3 different tadpoles!
Each pledge of 3 or more pins will have one set of board fillers added for free automatically. No need to add an add-on for that, unless you want another set added.
The four stretch goal frogs (Black rain frog, Fire-bellied toad, Tomato frog and Fringed tree frog) plus the board filler tadpoles will also be available on an additional sticker sheet! This one can also be found in the add-ons section for €3. These are not added to the Early Frog rewards so you have to add them yourself if you want these too.
One of the tadpoles of the board filler set will be black nickel. I played around with the idea and decided to go for it. So the board filler set will contain 2 gold plated tadpoles and 1 black plated tadpole. The overview on the project page have been updated accordingly.
The campaign ends on 13th of February (22:00h Amsterdam time for me) and after that there cannot be made any changes to your pledge and add-ons. So be sure to double check everything before then!
When the campaign has ended I'll set up the Project Survey which you will receive a few weeks after. In this survey I'll collect the shipping address, any additional info and you will be able to pay for the shipping. (I looked at the page to set up the survey and uh.. woah. I'm gonna need some time and lots of tea to figure this all out, haha! Luckily Roundbirbart has offered to help. All to say: please have patience for me while waiting on the survey, thank you so much)
For those who missed: our combined shipping deal! 🐸 💌 We forgot to add this to the campaign page, but we’re offering combined shipping for those of you who back both Frogtastic Frogs and Birds of Rotterdam our partner project!
Since Roundbirbart and I are locals we will meet up and do the bulk of the fulfillment together. When you opt in for combined shipping we will bundle all of your pins into one package and only charge shipping costs on one of the campaigns. Those who opt in will be charged for shipping on Birds of Rotterdam, and will have their shipping fees waived on Frogtastic Frogs.
If you’re interested in combined shipping you’ll be able to let us know during the project surveys!
And last but not least a sneak peek for the backing card for the freebies! Since we'll be offering combined shipping we can actually place both of our freebie pins on one cute backing card! It'll be a vertical backing card depicting a little pond with reed on the background. The ducky and frog pin will be pinned on the card so it will look like they are on the water surface on their lily pads. This is still a rough sketch so expect the end result to be a bit more refined.
Phew I think that's it! Thank you all so much for taking your time to read these updates, please, if there are any questions do not hesitate to ask them! I'd love to help or figure things out for you.
Thank you all so much for the support and the fun reactions! I'm truly grateful to have this campaign as my first ever and to have it go like this, truly Frogtastic! 🐸
