Hello campaign followers and backers; extras from the campaign are finally listed on Shopify and Etsy. My Shopify prices are a little lower than Etsy prices due to lower fees; Etsy is recommended only if you are an EU/UK buyer because it will handle VAT for you.
Backers, please check the backers-only section of this update for a coupon to get the leftovers at a discount.
If you like my art and want to see more, you can follow me on social mediaand subscribe to my newsletterto be notified of new items.
Guest Artist Pins
If you're looking for guest artist items, you can check their shops soon, or message them on social media.
For those of you who ordered keychains, please note the keychains come with a protective film that needs to be peeled off.
Please contact Backerkit supportif there are any issues with your rewards. Backerkit support will forward your message to me. Do not message me on my shops, social media, or comment on the campaign page. Since the leftovers are now listed in my shops and the guest artist pins are going to their respective artists, I can no longer guarantee complete replacements for any lost or incorrect orders. But I will do my best if you reach out after this update.
Themed Monster Enamel Pins
If you enjoyed this campaign, please consider following my final campaign: Themed Monster Enamel Pins. It will be next year, but you can follow the pre-launch page now. This campaign will feature monsters themed in different aesthetics, below are some sketches of the planned designs.
Featured Artists
Last but not least, here are the featured artists if you missed them! They have commissions open if you want your own Pride Angel; and lots of Pride and angel merch if you are on the hunt for more.

Hello Pride Angels backers, I have a quick update for you all tonight. If you were interested in the second funding attempt for the Pride Angels pins that were not funded in this campaign, they are now available in the Blood & HolyWater preorder store. The preorder store will close in about two weeks on December 6. If you backed the Blood & Holy Water campaign, you'll have the option to add these pins to your order as addons in the survey.
If you received your Pride Angels pins, I hope you love them! If you haven't yet, be sure to check tracking through Backerkit. You can contact Backerkit supportif there are any issues with your rewards.
Hi there backers, I'm happy to announce all the rewards have been shipped out! It should take 1-2 weeks for domestic (USA) shipments to arrive and 4-6 weeks for international shipments. Your tracking information is available through Backerkit.
For those of you who ordered keychains, please note the keychains come with a protective film that needs to be peeled off.
You can contact Backerkit supportif there are any issues with your rewards. Backerkit support will forward your message to me. Do not message me on my shops, social media, or comment on the campaign page - if you do that I may miss your message.
I graded and packed everything myself, so there is a non-zero chance of human error. This was my most challenging campaign to fulfill given all the different items, so please be kind when reaching out if you do find any issues. I will happily accommodate replacements or exchanges if needed.
A few people have inquired about the additional freebie sticker: if you find it in your package, that is not a mistake. If you missed it please read the backers-only section of this update.
For anyone who has not yet filled out the survey or had other issues with their order, I have reached out via your Backerkit email. If you do not follow-up on this email, you will not receive rewards.
I'm planning to list extras in my shops sometime during the first week of December. If you're waiting to buy leftovers, look out for a backers-only coupon; and please be aware that my shops will be open for only a few days in December, before I close them for the holidays.
Finally, I wanted to share some current/upcoming campaigns:
My current campaign is Blood and Holy Water, featuring vampire and angel pins. It is part of the Mementos Mori collection, there's lots of cool Halloween pins in this collection and tons of freebies you can get! It is ending November 14.
My final campaign Themed Monster Enamel Pins will be next year, but you can follow the pre-launch page now. It will feature monsters themed in different aesthetics.
Thank you for supporting Pride Angels, and I hope to see you again in the next campaign!
Hello backers, I have graded all the pins and it's time for them to ship! You should have received an email from Backerkit about your shipping address being locked. If you missed it, please double-check your address in the survey hereas soon as possible.
If you filled out your survey late and I cannot fulfill your order, I will email you to inquire if you would prefer delaying your shipment for a few months, while additional pins are made; would like to select a different pin; or would be satisfied with a seconds grade pin instead. Please make sure you can access your Backerkit email. If you would like more information on my pin grading system, please see myAbout Page & FAQ.
Once you receive your package, feel free to contact Backerkit supportif there are any issues with your rewards, they will forward your message to me. I can accommodate replacements or exchanges if needed. Please do not message me on my shops, social media, or comment on the campaign - if you do that I may miss your message.
Let me know if you have any questions in the comments. I'll be back with another update to let you know when the pins have all shipped out to you.
Hello Pride Angels backers and followers, about five days from now is the launch of my new campaign Blood & Holy Water. This campaign is launching on Halloween and will feature vampire and angel enamel pins. I was inspired by how much shared imagery there is between vampires and angels and wanted to capture that in a pin series.
Blood & Holy Water is part of the Mementos Mori collection, which features six pin campaigns with spooky, Halloween themes. There's a ton of freebies to be had!
Mementos Mori pin set: pledge to all six Mementos Mori campaigns to get a mini pin from each campaign.
Each campaign may offer additional freebies on top of these collaborative rewards, including stickers and more!
You can go to each campaign's pre-launch page by clicking on the images below.
I wanted to give you all assurance that I am committed to fulfilling Pride Angels first and foremost. Usually I like to completely wrap up one campaign before launching another but the Mementos Mori collaboration ended up being scheduled for Halloween so there is a little overlap. I anticipate Pride Angels to overlap only with the funding stage of Blood & Holy Water (which is ending November 14), so it should not conflict with fulfillment.
If the Blood & Holy Water campaign sounds interesting to you I hope you'll consider pledging! But I completely understand if you prefer to wait for this campaign's pins first before pledging. If you miss the Blood & Holy Water campaign, just like in Pride Angels there will be a post-campaign preorder store, where I am planning to fund some old pin designs in new colors and the Pride Angels pins that didn't get funding in this campaign.
If you have any questions or concerns you can leave them in the comments. I'll be back with another update once the pins are ready to ship. I'm about a third of the way through pin grading so I hope to start shipping pins out in early November.
