Hi everyone!
We are entering into the final days of the campaign! Thank you all SO much for such a wonderful and successful journey.
As we near the end, we are very very close to unlocking the divination coin! My fingers are crossed we can reach it in time! And perhaps the Bat enamel pin? We will see!
I also wanted to share with you all this picture and video from my manufacturer! The sample has been completed and just in time to share it with all of you!
(Sorry if it's a little blurry!)
I also have a video directly from my manufacturer showing off the deck!! I am SO beyond floored with how stunning they look. I am also obsessed with the UV on each card! So shiny!
Thank you all so much for your continued support, I am so thrilled to bring this deck to life.
Final few days, let's finish strong <3

Hi everyone!
We currently have 10 days left of the campaign! Exciting!
I wanted to make this update because I had quite a few people reach out to me and ask about the Bat enamel pin. It is a stretch goal I REALLY want to make happen, and it sounds like a LOT of people do as well! Which I totally understand, it's one of my favorites!
That being said, I decided to adjust the stretch goals a bit to make it a bit easier for us to hit this goal.
We are currently on our way to hitting our 10k goal, but I have also created this new $12,000 goal that will unlock the Bat enamel pin! I really really want to make this pin happen!
Thank you all so much for backing my campaign. I have also heard from my Manufacturer that they are going to be sending me some pictures either tomorrow or Tuesday for what the finished cards will look like. I have been waiting for these photos for so long and I am so excited!
Hope everyone has a great rest of your Sunday!

Good morning, everyone!
I am SO excited to say that I woke up to us surpassing our second stretch goal! That means every person who has pledged $45 and up will get this super awesome FREE enamel pin!
I am so happy we get to bring this pin to life. I have really found so much excitement in making enamel pins lately.
Thank you all so much for joining my campaign and helping to bring this Oracle deck to life.
I also had an update from my manufacturer that they are working hard now on the sample and making sure everything looks good for print! It's not the best picture in the world, but here is a picture showing off the UV spot treatment that will come on each card! (Keep in mind they haven't been cut into circular shapes yet in this preview, but they WILL be circular!)
What you are seeing is just a screen shot of the shine that will come with the cards! Whenever you move the cards, the animal and flowers inside the front of the card will shimmer! Once I have more pictures I will be updating all of you! <3
Anyways, the next stretch goal is our $10,000 goal! With this goal we will unlock the divination coin customized for this deck! I just finished the super rough draft of what I want it to look like and I am VERY excited about it!
Thank you all so much for becoming a part of this journey. We still have 17 days left of the campaign!

Hi everyone! We did it! Well, YOU ALL did it!
We have reached our first stretch goal of $5,500 which means we have unlocked the free Snake sticker for all of you have who pledged $45 or more!
Thank you SO MUCH! I am so excited that we have gotten here! I was really excited about this sticker design!
I also wanted to update you all as I decided to make a few changes to the stretch goal line up. There were some stretch goals I REALLY REALLY want to hit, and so that being said, I have made a few changes! First up is our next stretch goal at $7,500! It was originally going to be another mini print, but I really want to make this enamel pin a reality! SO! I bummed it up in the order of stretch goals!
I really enjoy making enamel pins, and so I really wanted to push so that we can make this one!! This enamel pin will be 1.75", Hard enamel, come with two butterfly clasps, and feature a recolor of The King Fisher design!
So yeah! That's pretty much it! I am SO excited!! We still have 21 days left in the campaign to make this happen! <3
Thank you SO much!

Update! + Stretch Goal Information!

Hi everyone!
I wanted to sit down today and craft you guys a great update for how we are doing within the first 5/6 days of the campaign.
So far, we are doing amazing!
Because of that, I wanted to share some awesome information about the deck with you.
First up is the UV spot treatment. This feature will make certain parts of the card pop! I have selected to make the animals on each card be treated with the UV. As soon as I have a sample of what this will look like ON the cards, I will be sharing it here! But for now, here is an image from google on what Spot UV treatment roughly looks like. (credit to Graphicburger.com for this Logo Mock up!)
Here is an example of where the UV will be on the cards!
Next up will be the Booklet that the deck comes with! This booklet will be square and fit inside the box with the cards! The booklet is around 22 pages and has an omen and interpretation for each card! It also comes with a beautiful poem about the deck! (Written by Ally Whitney <3 ) The booklet also explains a little bit about what exactly oracle is!
I've created this little mock up to give you an idea of what the book will look like.
Next up is the box! The box is going to be really cool! This is the example that my manufacturer sent me when we were picking what kind of box this would be.
(Image is from my manufacturer, Deck is: "Accurate AF Tarot" )
So from this image you can see the box is square and the cards will be removable very easily from their box! The booklet will fit nice and snug inside the box above the cards! The design of course will feature The Phantom Fauna artwork~
And then I also wanted to talk about stretch goals!
The first goal is currently set at $5,500! Which unlocks a free sticker of The Snake for everyone who has pledged $45 or more!
We're getting closer every day! I'm really excited for some later on stretch goals too, and just in general I cant wait to create this deck!
I have already been talking to my manufacturer about the deck and what it needs, so it is all formatted and ready to go! I am hopeful that production will be speedy and so I can fulfill rewards quickly as well!
Thank you so much!
