Latest Updates from Our Project:

We are now 100% Funded! Time for Stretch Goals!
almost 5 years ago – Wed, Jul 10, 2019 at 11:52:26 PM

Happy day, friends and Backers!

Last night, we breached the funding goal with the help of all the wonderful folks like you who have spread the word and supported this campaign.  I'm so excited that I'll be able to produce these first entries into my Birthstone Goddesses enamel pin collection!  May this be the start of a beautiful venture!

Stretch Goals Feature

Now with the funding goal behind us, we can focus on reaching those Stretch Goals and still have roughly 11 days to do so!  I've got some exciting goals to strive for, including vinyl stickers inspired by the Goddesses of Summer that will be added to all Backers with physical Rewards.

Unlocking at  $2700

And then we have the BIG Stretch Goal - the addition of LIMITED EDITION versions of the Goddesses of Summer enamel pins as Reward options on this campaign!  These Limited Edition pins would be made available at a limited run of 100 a piece, with each pin hand-assembled with a dangling Swarovski crystal and presented in its own acrylic jewelry case.  It would be the swankiest!

Unlocking at $5600

So we can't rest on our laurels yet!  Let's keep sharing and spreading the word so we can unlock all the lovely things!

My thanks again to all of you who've helped out by backing or sharing!  I couldn't do this without you and that means so very much to me as an independent artist.

New Tier Added! Lady of July Original Art Bundle
almost 5 years ago – Mon, Jul 08, 2019 at 06:04:16 PM

I've added a new original art bundle today with the ink drawing of Lady of July's pin design accented with 23k genuine gold leaf!  This 5x7 in. ink drawing will be matted in a black core white mat cut to 8x10 inches which will be ready to pop into a standard sized frame.

Here's a peek at how this drawing was made in a short 2 minute time lapse of the inking and gilding process:

To claim this original, pick the "Art Collector - Lady of July Bundle" Reward from the list of Rewards and complete your pledge.  You can also switch to this Reward if you've pledged for another.  You'll also be able to add different pins and prints in the Add On shop which will be available once the campaign has successfully completed.

If you miss out on this Goddess, the Lady of June's original art bundle is still available!  Next Monday (7/15), I'll post the third and final Goddess of Summer's original art bundle, so keep an eye out on your updates if you'd like to claim her!

We're only a few hundred dollars short of our goal right now, so keep spreading and sharing the word, everyone.  I'd really love for us to reach those Stretch Goals, too!

Thanks so much for your fantastic support, thus far!

New Original Art Tier! Lady of June's Ink Drawing Bundle
almost 5 years ago – Mon, Jul 01, 2019 at 09:12:55 AM

Happy Monday, everyone!  I'm so excited to report that we're about 80% funded, which is amazing!  To help push us over the finish goal (and also help us get those sweet, sweet Stretch Goal items), I'm adding original ink drawing tiers inspired by each pin's unique design.  Lady of June's original tier has been added today!

I've hand inked the design with archival inks, then accented key details with genuine 23k gold.  You can watch a little 2 min time lapse of how I created this drawing here:

This drawing is 5x7 inches and will be matted up to 8x10 inches in an elegant black core mat so that it will be ready to frame when it arrives to you!  It will be signed and dated.  There will be only ONE available, which you can currently find in the Reward tiers on the project page.

Don't want Lady of June's drawing, but are interested in July or August?  Stay tuned to the Updates, as I will be releasing each original drawing's tier every Monday for the next two weeks!  They will be available on a first come, first served basis.

These art bundles will be thematic to each Lady, meaning that the pin and print will be of the Goddess featured in the ink drawing, but don't forget that once the campaign ends, you'll be able to use my Add On shop to add additional different pins and prints (or more of the same kind).

As ever, keep sharing this campaign with your art and pin loving friends!  Word of mouth is the most powerful tool an individual artist like me has in their arsenal for these kinds of small projects.

More soon!
