Hello and welcome to my seventh crowdfunding campaign and first backerkit project! My name is Laura and I run Frog Tree - a small, nature inspired art business. As a part of Pintopia 2, I want to finally create a small collection of 3" carnivorous pins! This is sort of a spin off of Herpetoflora, pairing carnivorous animals and carnivorous plants. (Yes, frogs are very carnivorous and yes I needed to include one, it's in my name!)

I'm super delighted to be partnered with Art by Tuna for Pintopia 2!! When you back both of our campaigns, and we're both successfully funded, you'll get two free pins!! BONKERS. You'll receive this venus flytrap sick cat face from my campaign and the super stinkin cute dyed metal frog from Tuna. Check out her campaign

Lets take a closer look at the pins in this campaign! I love big enamel pins as little art pieces and I am excited to bring these three inch pins to life! All three pins (and the freebie pin!) are plated with black nickel, are hard enamel and each have more than four screen printed colours to show off all of the details!

Left over pins and future restocks of these designs will retail in my online shop for $25 CAD each, so if you are interested, now is the best time! 

Vinyl stickers of all of the Carniflora pin designs will be available as add-ons throughout the campaign! Stickers will be 3" in the longest dimension.

Here is a quick rundown of the timeline post-campaign!

Survey + Add-on Store (1 week post campaign) : Soon after the campaign ends, surveys will be sent out for backers to select their pins for their pledge! You will also share your address, pay for shipping and can add add-ons to your pledge through the add-on store!
Manufacturing (2-3 weeks post campaign) : Once most of the surveys are complete and I have an accurate idea of how many of each design I need to order, manufacturing can begin! Since the designs are a little complex, I expect this to take between 1 and 2 months not including shipping.
Shipping + Fulfillment (~July 2024) :  After pins, backing cards, shipping supplies and stickers have arrived at my studio I can begin fulfillment! While this is subject to change I am estimating fulfillment to take place in July.

Since there are only pins in this campaign, shipping is super straightforward- but don't forget:
