Hi Pin Pals!
Thank you everyone for getting these surveys completed as quickly as possible. We are 89% done, which means I’m waiting on 16 people who need to complete them as soon as possible.
Also, as a reminder: I have 2 people who unfortunately did not record their emails correctly, so if you see this message somehow, please reach out. 😅
I also have 7 backers who have not completed the initial payment, so check your emails. ♥️ If there’s anyone who still wants pins from the campaign, I have left a preorder store up and running, otherwise I'll put whatever is left in the Etsy store after the last pin is mailed out.
Also, I have BIG NEWS!!
Nearly a year before I was invited to participate in Backerkit's First Ever Pintopia, I had been working on a special Kickstarter that included the second wave of my Fauna Fruits pin collection! This new Kickstarter is currently up and running with LOTS of pins, a watercolor coloring book and other items, some which are first come, first serve so check them out as soon as you can...of course, only if you're interested. I know it's not the same theme as the Ghoulfriends, but some of the items are just practical and fun.
Goals have been set at the bare minimum after the Jaguar pin, and this may mean that I will NOT have any extras to place in the Etsy store, so if you really, really wanted a specific pin, especially at this price, this is your opportunity. This will not affect any International Backers using the "International Only" Tier , as I'll order what you would like and make it available once they arrive.
Just know that you're NOT charged immediately for anything, and Kickstarter WILL let you know 48 hrs before the Kickstarter ends so that you can make any adjustments necessary.
NOW that I've gotten the serious stuff out of the way, I'm excited to show you the new additions!
Watercolor Coloring Book is Available! 25 pages with Water Activated Pigments on each page, and comes with a small brush to scratch that childhood nostalgic itch you might have
Mini Pins are Available! And you can choose which one you'd like! (Freebies are still random)
Traditional Coloring Books are Available! This will have 40 pages and all 45 Fauna Fruit Characters from my collection.
Pin Banners are Available!! I've been waiting to add this one, and I'm excited to share my first banner! Honestly, if you have a whole collection of pins, it's difficult to find place for them, and I heard you loud and clear! <3
Air Fresheners are Still Available while Supplies Last! They're exclusively Add-ons.
Thank you everyone for sharing this Kickstarter around if you do. It takes a village, and I hope you can join us.
Amazing work everyone!! We are 82% done with surveys, which means I’m waiting on 27 people to complete theirs.
I have 2 people who unfortunately did not record their emails correctly, so if you see this message somehow, please reach out. 😅
I also have 11 backers who have not completed the initial payment, so check your emails. ♥️
If there’s anyone who still wants pins from the campaign, I have left a preorder store up and running.
Thanks!! -Ashley

Hi Pinpals!
I just wanted to thank everyone for getting to their surveys so quickly! I know we have until March 31st, but if we do happen to have 100% filled out before that time, we can start the ordering process even earlier.
Thank you again everyone for making this campaign possible!

Hi PinPals!
BackerKit is trying to make some improvements to the survey experience, so we've pushed back the date a bit to give them them time to make those updates. Surveys are estimated to go out during the week of the 27th, so please look out for those. You'll have until March 31st to fill out your survey. I'll give you gentle reminder a couple days before the due date.

Thank you for supporting Gourmet Ghoulfriends which was 1 of 20 projects participating in Pintopia 2023. Thanks to your support 100% of the projects were fully funded!
There are a few next steps I wanted to share:
Expect an email letting you know your payment has been charged. If there are any issues with your payment we will notify you with next steps.
We will need to collect some additional info such as your pin selections and shipping information before we send rewards. In the coming weeks we will send you a survey to collect that information.
Since all Pintopia projects were 100% funded, you will be getting a FREE Pintopia 2023 pin from BackerKit. And if you backed 3+ pins you’ve earned some additional pins. Stay tuned for more information from BackerKit about how you will receive those pins.
Again, thanks for your support and stay tuned for more information soon.
