Hello, happy hump day!

We're roughly one-third through the campaign, and 61% to our goal. Neat! If you haven't pledged yet, you can check out the various tiers here. 

Your early support is much appreciated in helping us reach our goal! 💚

This year I've teamed up with the wonderful Milkbun to create some extra cuteness!

Back both of our projects and receive the following Cross-Collab Freebie Pins. I designed Baby Pudu to match Milkbun's MAGIC FOREST Make A Scene Kit. Back us both, and you'll receive both cutie mini pins pictured below.

Click either graphic to be taken to Milkbun's campaign!


As always, thanks for joining me on this sweet adventure.

Hi All!

As of this morning we are 60% funded! Yahoo! This campaign is shaping up to be a slow but steady climb toward our goal, and I am confident we'll be funded by the end of next week. 💚

If you missed out on any of these cuties or simply wanted one (or two) more, they have now been added to the Add-On shop for you. They will be made to order just for this campaign, so please don't hesitate to grab them while you can. 

Please keep sharing out the project on social media. Below are posts I've made on Bluesky, Facebook and Instagram for you to share:

I hope you have a wonderful week!

Hello! Exclamation point minefield ahead!! 

Wow! Thank you for your support in these early days! As of this update we're exactly 50% funded on our main goal! I think for such a large goal, that's incredible!

I am so, so happy that you're here. :) 

Let's keep the good feels going: If we hit 200 backers total, everyone who has pledged for a physical tier will get the Mood Ring Chocoturtle sticker for FREE!

Share this project with someone you think will love it, and let's see how far our little turtles can swim. 💚



Thanks for joining me on this sweet adventure,

Hello all!

Happy New Year! 

This project has been a long time in the making, but we're almost ready to hatch. Eee!

If you're receiving this update, you already qualify for the Teaser Page Follower gift. Yay! Please make sure you back the project within the first 48 hours if you'd like to get the bebe Berry mini pin as a gift, too. And if you've backed any of my crowdfunding projects before, you'll also receive a cute matching sticker of Minty. :)

Today I took some photos of Mint Chocoturtle with her keychain attachment. I think it looks like she's swimming upwards, which is very cute. This also gives you a good idea of her size. I'll be taking some lifestyle photos of her next.
 




I plan on doing some more food shots with the turtles, as well as a few handheld photos to better show her scale. What kinds of photos would you like to see of the plushies? Would you like to see video too?

Yay! I hope this update wasn't too long. We're almost there! 

Thanks for being on this tiny turtle journey with me,
Shelly

Wow! I can't believe we're only six weeks away from launch. January 22nd is the big day! 

I'm busily working on graphics for the campaign and for production. In the followers only section below is a small preview of potential tag/box art. Please make sure you're following to access it!

Are you new to the project? Here's another good reason to follow if you haven't already ;) You'll receive this adorable mini pin as a FREE gift when you pledge at any level with physical rewards.
