Here's the lineup of the Rebirth & Ruin pin collection~
Orb of Renewal 🤍🌿✨
A hand gently holding a glowing orb, surrounded by delicate sprouts that thrive in its light—a symbol of life emerging from the void
Thornbearer 🖤🥀✨ (Pintopia collab freebie pin)
The Thornbearer free collab pin features a hand delicately wrapped in sharp black thorn vines. Blood cracks through the decayed statue hand showing that beauty can still emerge from pain.
(To get the free matching pin below to the "Orb of Renewal" pin above, you must back my campaign here and my collab partner Allison's campaign "Eternal Bloom" during Pintopia 2025! You'll also receive Allison's free collab "Vesper" pin)
Matching hand pins together <3
These 2 pins were designed to match each other and Allison's campaign <3
Eternal Rest 🦊🌿✨
A peaceful fox adorned with delicate lily flowers and mushrooms sprouting from its body, surrounded by greenery—a serene symbol of nature reclaiming what was once lost.
The Hollow Perch 🦅🪶✨
A bird skeleton perched gracefully on a branch, its hollow chest bursting with mushrooms as it sings
Crowned with Decay 🦌🌿✨
A deer skull covered in Hosta flowers, vines and fungi. Under the soft glow of the full moon, the deer skull transforms into a vessel for beauty and rebirth.
Each pin in this collection is designed to bring an air of mystery and elegance to your collection. Perfect for anyone who finds beauty in the macabre 🖤🥀✨
🌿✨ Don't forget, if you grab 3+ pins during Early Bird hours, you'll also receive this free Lotus mini pin as a thank you for your support! <3
Pin specs:
All large enamel pins in this project will be hard enamel, roughly 2.25" tall/wide. Mini pin will be roughly 1" wide. All pins will have either a gold or gunmetal finish. All pins will have 2 rubber posts on the back of the pin as well as my backstamp logo.
When you back both my campaign "Rebirth & Ruin" and my collab partner Allison's campaign "Eternal Bloom" you'll get a limited edition FREE pin from BOTH projects! These are Pintopia-exclusive pins and won't be produced again so be sure to back during Pintopia this year! :)
Allison's free collab pin "Vesper"
My free collab pin "Thornbearer"
My Thornbearer collab pin was made to match Allison’s campaign featuring cracked statues AND my first enamel pin Orb of Renewal! The Thornbearer pin is not available in the add-on shop so be sure to back mine and Allison's campaign!
Unlock more of the collection as we grow! New pin designs will be voted on, potential designs include:
Celestial Decay: A crescent moon entwined with blooming vines. Moth’s Rebirth: A moth with decayed wings, radiating luminescent spores.
Forest’s Keeper: A rabbit skeleton hidden by vines and blossoms.
Fungal Bloom: A cluster of mushrooms in vibrant colors, growing from a fallen tree branch. Ashes to Bloom: A phoenix mid-rebirth, its wings trailing fiery embers that transform into blooming flowers and mushrooms as they fall. The bird's body appears skeletal in places, symbolizing the cycle of death and renewal.

Hello there! :) I'm Jess also known as JBlake Design at anime conventions / @jbzydraws online!

I run my Etsy Shop here and I create lots of unique fanart and dark original art! This will be my fourth crowdfunding campaign including my successful Pintopia campaign "Femme Fatale", my "Halloween Township" ita bag/enamel pin campaigns on both Kickstarter/Backerkit, and my "dumb bitch juice" keychain preorder campaign that reached all across the US and several countries worldwide.
