Well, I'm still VERY optimistic! Lots still in store.

@Sunz the international shipping for 1 and 2 decks is only $1 / $3 additional postage.

Cheers!

We made it to 50%! WOO!

Now onward to 100% (and beyond, cause it would be lovely to reach the stretch goals. )

Hey everyone!

Only one week left to meet the goal for this campaign!

I just posted an update and revealed a couple items and an extra stretch goal that I'm considering for the future.

I appreciate your support, so if you've been thinking about supporting this project, no better time than right now!

Hey! Quick update for international backers. I just had a request about the 3 deck tier shipping cost.

Now, 3 decks will not have tracking for better pricing for international backers. Here's a quick recap of the first few tiers:

US
1 deck = $14
2 decks = $25
3 decks = $35

International
1 deck = $15
2 decks = $28
3 decks = $41


Hope this helps!

If this does not fund, I hope that you will relaunch. Maybe you could print some prototypes from MPC and give them to Youtubers that do deck reviews and get more backers through that.

I hope that this funds, on this try or on the next one.

Thanks @Räpylätassu! I do hope this funds now, too!! It's now or never.

I can't understand how this adorable deck hasn't funded. I (honestly) love that some artists have a huge following and interest and can fund in a few hours - just wish all the decks I love would have similar support. I'm pulling for you, Sarah - I don't have a lot of card buying friends but will post this to my Facebook timeline. I'm hoping you do fund and do another deck - as you grow fans it will get easier. Your quality is on point.

[sprouts1115]

sarone13 - It seems your signature gives an error.

[sarone13]

Oh shoot! Thanks for catching that, I just added it yesterday. It's corrected now

[sarone13]

I'm raising the stakes!



STRETCH GOAL for Copper Foil on the Tuck Box is now set at $10,500.
(Just $700 away from my original goal)

Here's the update all about it: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sf ... ts/1601455" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Cheers!

Got to get it funded first. I'm spreading the word!

[JazzVox]

80% of the way to funded!
Here's hoping people continue to jump on board in the last couple of days.

[sarone13]

Hey everyone!

Just a few more days to go for these Cocktail Hour Playing Cards and there's a little momentum building. I would love to not only reach the goal, but also get to the first Stretch Goal that adds copper foil to the tuck box. I lowered it recently, so it's much more attainable now.

All support is appreciated to get this charming deck made! Thank you!

Let's do it!

Cheers,
Sarah

sarone13 - You are so close. I would have asked for a full bleed back.

@sprouts1115, I know, we're getting SO close! Sorry to disappoint you with the borders though I think they still look sharp!


The campaign ends tomorrow! I'd be grateful if you check it out:

Last day!

Take a look if you've been wanting to pick up a deck of these cards. Last chance to do it!

[anwar]

Just pledged

Love these cards!

[vasta41]

Psyched! Wish there were foil but a non-foiled deck is better than no deck at all.

[JofDiamonds]

$99 to go

[JuFiN]

Finally gave in and backed for a deck, i was really hoping to wait until it reached the foil stretch goal. It would really be a shame if the deck didnt get funded at all though so I went ahead and backed for a deck. It's not much but hopefully it helps with the final push into being funded!

[sarone13]

WE'RE 100% FUNDED!!

And well on our way to the first stretch goal to add copper foil.

I couldn't have done it without the support of the community here, so my sincerest gratitude to you all. CHEERS!!

[sinjin7]

Thank goodness this funded! That copper foiling is tantalizingly close...

I think you said if you get enough extra decks purchased through backerkit to put it up to the stretch goal that the foil might still be in the future? At any rate, stoked it got funded - now you have your first deck under your belt - woot!

[vasta41]

I'd pay an extra $1 per deck to get foil if that helps in any way.

You guys are so nice! I can't tell you how excited I am to make these cards! And while we had a bumpy ride at the end, we still managed to be only ~ $400 away from copper foil.

You are correct that I'm using Backerkit to manage pledges and set up PreOrders. I'll be promoting that link in a couple weeks everywhere.

I also have something else cookin' that could help us cross the Stretch Goal line. Keep your fingers crossed for me cause it's not over yet.


THANK YOU everyone!

Sarah

Hey everyone!

Just a quick note... the Pre-Order store with Backerkit is now open – through 7/13. If you missed out on the Kickstarter, you still have a chance to pick one up. Thanks!
