The final outstanding item for Isopod Colony, the sticky notes, arrived today and are now in-hand. Thank you for your patience with the delay of this item. They turned out great and I can't wait to send them to you!
There are 15 orders left to ship for Isopod Colony. I'll be getting these orders out next week, and with that, Isopod Colony will be a wrap! Thank you so much to everyone who helped make this happen. This was my first Backerkit campaign, and having this project be successful enabled me to produce items that would otherwise have been out-of-reach for a small creator.
I ordered extras of all of the items for this campaign so that I could have stock to take with me to conventions and art shows. For now, I'll be leaving the Isopod Colony preorder store open if anyone would like to order any additional pins or Isopod goodies.
We’re happy to share that all the pins have been produced and are ready to be shipped. We’re very close to getting these into your hands.
Before we begin shipping, we just need a few quick things from you to make sure everything goes smoothly:
Please confirm your shipping address Kindly double-check your shipping address. You’ll have 48 hours to review or update it if needed. After that, we’ll lock addresses and start shipping rewards.
A few surveys are still incomplete If you haven’t completed your survey yet, please do so as soon as possible. We won’t be able to ship your rewards without it.
Shipping fee payment issues Some backers have errored cards for the shipping fee. If this applies to you, please update your payment information to avoid any shipping delays.
We’re truly at the final stretch, and we’re incredibly grateful for your patience and support throughout this journey. Let’s get everything wrapped up and on its way to you.
I had a wonderful delivery at the weekend! All your lovely stickers have now arrived and I've been busy working on the orders from all those who've completed their surveys and picked their moths. Here's a peek at the incredible selection of moths that found their way to my letterbox...
I've also had a very exciting picture my jigsaw manufacturer showing a prototype....
If you've yet to complete you survey and pick your moths, please do so asap so I can get your stickers to you! If you've lost your survey or didn't arrive in your inbox you can recover it here.... https://marvellous-moths.backerkit.com/ just type in the eamil address you used to pledge for the campaign and a new survey will be sent to you.
That's all for now... some of you will be receiving your stickers soon!
