Latest Updates from Our Project:

ONE DAY LEFT! Please spread the word
10 months ago – Wed, Apr 17, 2024 at 01:09:49 PM

Hey everyone!

We have ONE DAY LEFT to unlock the I BELIEVE pin! As I write this, we're at $1,676/1,700 to get it unlocked. I believe we can get it unlocked!


Before the project ends, I wanted to send out a few final reminders:
  • Pledging for more than 1 pin now is a better deal than adding on extra pins later! If you were thinking about increasing your pledge, now is the time to do it.
  • If you also pledge to the Cat Chaos project, you get 2 free pins! These are only available to those pledging for both campaigns.
  • You can select add-ons during the survey later on, BUT I highly suggest you add them onto your pledge now to help us unlock that final goal. There are bumper stickers, buttons, lanyards, mini pins, and extra unlocked pins available as add-ons.
  • Once the project ends and your pledges are collected, a survey will be sent out. This is where you get to select your choice of rewards, add on any last minute items, and shipping costs will be calculated.

Spread the word! Help us get that last design unlocked before pledges close. You can share my recent Creatures posts from Instagram and Facebook. This is the final push!

Thanks so much everyone,
Traci

Only 5 days left! SPREAD THE WORD

Hey creepy cuties!

We're down to the last few days of the campaign. We've gotten so many designs unlocked! As I write this, we're at $1,600/1,700 to unlock the I BELIEVE pin. With your help, I think we can get it unlocked. If you don't already, follow me on Instagram and share some of my posts with your friends!

I've been looking through some of the polls and updates I have sent out and just wanted to share what I learned from the results:
  • The Jackalope design is super popular! I wasn't expecting this, but based on the poll, it is the #1 most popular design.
  • You guys want the I BELIEVE pin in GREEN! I hear ya! As long as we can get it unlocked in the next few days, it'll be green.
  • You Mothman and Ghost Cat pin lovers are very passionate!
  • You guys are FUNNY! I love reading through your comments. <3

I'm also really excited about the add-ons I put up! We have the bumper stickers, extra buttons, AND I made some mini pins and lanyards available as add-ons. The lanyards and mini pins were originally from the Mystical Kickstarter campaign, but they seemed so fitting with this campaign! Any that are selected as add-ons will help fund them being restocked.


Thanks for putting up with all these updates! Let's get the I BELIEVE pin funded!

Have a nice weekend everyone,

Goal Update and New Add-ons!
10 months ago – Wed, Apr 10, 2024 at 08:13:34 AM

Β All of our original designs have been unlocked! YAY!



Up next, the I BELIEVE pin! The green version won the poll, and it unlocks at $1,700.

I also put up some new add-on options.



The Mini Star and Mini Bat pins are now available as add-ons! They were originally from my last crowdfunding project, the Mystical Kickstarter. They will be restocked with the help of the Creatures campaign! The Mini Bat pins have black nickel plating, and the Mini Star pins have gold plating and glow in the dark! If we get the I BELIEVE design unlocked, I may add a Mini Star silver plating option as a new stretch goal (if the demand is there.)

Out of curiosity, I attached a poll to see which your favorite Creature is! I'm just trying to get a sense of which designs are your favorites.

We're in the last stretch of the project! Let's keep unlocking whatever else we can. Please KEEP SHARING the project with your spooky-loving friends!

Thanks for the support everyone!

Cactus Cat is SO CLOSE + New Stretch Goal Added
10 months ago – Sun, Apr 07, 2024 at 11:29:07 AM

We are SO CLOSE to unlocking the Cactus Cat! We've actually reached $1,500 a few times, but it's been fluctuating back and forth. We still have 11 days left to get as much as we can unlocked!

We've unlocked the other goals so quickly, I decided to add more stretch goals. The "I BELIEVE" design below will have glow in the dark text. If you want this design unlocked, you are welcome to adjust your pledge levels to include it!



Which colorway is your favorite? Go vote in the poll! If one is way more popular than the other, I'll likely only have that one produced. If they're pretty close in votes, I might just make them BOTH stretch goals. Now is your chance to decide!

DON'T forget when you also pledge to the Cat Chaos campaign, you get these 2 free collab pins. This is the ONLY way to get these pins!



Thanks for your support everyone! I can't wait to see how much we can create together.

Raccoon Stretch Goal UNLOCKED! Up next, Cactus Cat! + EU/UK Backer Info
10 months ago – Thu, Apr 04, 2024 at 08:18:15 PM

Hey, everyone!

What a great first week for this project. We have unlocked the initial goal AND the first stretch goal! That means so far, you will be able to pledge for the:
  • Β UFO Pin
  • Mothman Pin
  • Jackalope Pin
  • AND Raccoon Pin

We're SUPER close to unlocking the Cactus Cat Pin! As I write this, we're at $1,464/1,500 to get it unlocked. I really wanted to include this one since it's such a cool, lesser known cryptid. Here are some fun facts about the Cactus Cat Cryptid:
  • It is a bobcat-like creature with thorn-like fur and a sharp, branched tail.
  • It is native to the North American Southwestern desert, and has been sighted in California, Nevada, New Mexico, and even occasionally in Colorado.
  • The Cactus Cat is said to slash open cacti and return later to drink the fermented juice.



All of the pins will have glow in the dark effects! Some will also include screen printing (Jackalope), pearlescent fill (UFO), and maybe even polarizing effects (Ghost Cat)! I am working with my factory to make samples ahead of time to make sure the effects will turn out their best. (I wasn't able to upload the video, so a grainy GIF will have to do! See a better quality video of the glow in the dark here on the campaign page.)



REMINDER: If you are in the UK/EU, you are able to pledge HERE through Etsy. Etsy makes it way easier for me to properly charge fees for EU/UK pledges, that way I don't accidentally charge you incorrectly!

Typically, the first 2 days of crowdfunding bring in the most pledges. That means we're in the slow part! Keep sharing the project with your friends and family who would be interested! That, and feel free to adjust your pledges to include additional designs if you want more, or pledge for some add-ons.

We're so close to the next stretch goal, I'm going to start working on some more! Keep an eye out on the next few updates since I'll be sending out more polls for you to vote in. Thank you!!
