Introduction


Thanks so much for checking out my project! I am Catherine, the creator of Walnut And Clam! This spooky season, I am so thrilled to bring you to Whisperwood, a spooky little town where my unusual kitties live. I have always wanted to add a few not-your-everyday shops, sceneries and a haunted house to my kitty town of Whiskerwood (click here for more details), but I wasn't sure if these designs will fit well with the town. And that gave me the idea to create another town, that being Whisperwood.

Welcome to the spooky town of Whisperwood, an uncharted land in the kitties world. No one knows exactly where it is, but if you are lucky (or unlucky) enough to find your way into this quirky little town, don't be afraid, the kitties here will be more than happy to help. They might look a bit different from your everyday kitties, but they are all very kind, at first. And don't forget to take the opportunity to visit some of their shops and the must experience scenic vistas. I promise that you will not find them anywhere else. Just remember, you may not remember anything from the town once you set foot away from it. Muhahaha…

Pin Designs



For this project, there are a total of eight hard enamel pins (gold plated), and depending on the size/ details, they are going to fall under one of the following three classes - mini, standard and premium. See below image for a quick reference:




Mini pins, as the name suggested, are small. They are approximately 0.6" tall with only one rubber clutch at the back. If you are familiar with my past projects, they are similar in sizes with the Kitties of Whiskerwood hard enamel pins.
Standard size pins are approximately 1.5" to 1.9", and it comes with two rubber clutches at the back.
Premium pins are either bigger than my standard size pins (The Haunted Meow Mansion measures 2.4" wide!), or they compose of more than one component to make (The Blue Moon is composed of two parts - the main part with the tree, and a separate lantern that is attached with a metal ring).

Different classes of pins cost differently to make, thus their retail price will also be different. When you are making your pledges, please make sure you pay special attention to it to ensure you get the pins you are looking for! Now let's take a closer look at each of these designs~

Sticker Designs


The designs from our standard and premium pins will be available in a sticker pack of five stickers! These are going to be holographic stickers with a glossy finish. The sizes of the stickers are approximately 3" (the longest side of the sticker). You can also get the individual stickers as add-ons. The sticker pack unlocks at $4000 CAD.

Please note, the holographic effect will be on the border of the sticker and some parts of the stickers. Please note, the below mock up only shows the holographic effect on the border.


Please see below for a sticker I did previously with the same holographic effect (holographic effect only applied to the border, water, windows and the ladder in the design).





The Kitties of Whisperwood sticker sheet comes with 13 different small stickers. The sizes of the individual stickers vary. Please refer to below image for an idea of how big they will be. The sticker sheet is only available as add-on. The sticker sheet unlocks at $4200 CAD.
