Greetings Hoarders,

Wow! We are killing it! You have unlocked 3 of the planned 6 designs already! And many of you have given me some great suggestions in the comments on the sixth design! Keep those ideas coming! 

We have some real keeners out there! How did you get all your shopping done already? 🤯 Though I am there with the buying of your own gifts, I don't think I've bought a single gift yet... I better get on it; I guess >.<.

The little present Derpy Dragon will be the first one to join the hoard! 

I really like this guy. He reminds me of an old fanart I made many years ago (2013) where I first discovered fancy brushes in Photoshop.


Ok, this art is very different.... but thought you might enjoy it anyway <3 And now that I look at it, I am inspired to turn some of these into Derpy dragons...   Ahhhh good old minions....

For today's poll, I would love for you to tell me your favourite holiday activity! This will also determine your second design you unlocked! I think my personal favourite thing is spiced wine...and soups, and my husband's smoked turkey dinner... (I might be hungry as I write this update...)

There is still time to claim your early bird sticker if you haven't backed yet!


I have also added the engagement stretch goals where you can unlock colouring page just by participating/voting in polls, liking posts, and commenting on updates! These will be voted on once we figured out all the pins. Simply click the achievement banner at the bottom of this update to see how far we are! We are really close to unlocking the first one in just the first 24 hours.


I look forward to seeing you in the comments! So glad to have you join the weirdling tribe! 

Yours in art,
Therena

Greetings Hoarders,

It's that time of year when stress skyrockets and wallets bottom out. (Who else is Dopamine shopping for gifts for themselves on BackerKit this season?🙋‍♀️) But it can be a time of fun and shenanigans as well! And who better to bring the Derpy back into the Holidays than your favourite Derpy Dragons!

I am a bit of a Krampus myself, with Christmas always feeling over the top and overstimulating... but... I love sparkles and glitter, and my husband does an amazing job of Christmas lights on our house. Sadly, my unicorn has gone from pristine to the pestilence horseman of the apocalypse and now finally a decayed corpse, so there won't be a flashy unicorn in my yard this year. But I digress; this is about dragons, not unicorns! (I should know better...but here we are)

If you are new here, welcome! 


You have come to the right place to not only shop but hangout with the most amazing weirdling tribe this side of crowdfunding!

And if you are back for more fun and shenanigans, you know you are in store for daily updates, polls, and shenanigans as demanded by the Derpy dragons! So welcome to the fun zone, or should I say Derpy-zone? Can that be a thing?

To kick off our daily polls tell me how you have started celebrating the season in today's poll! This will also unlock the first Derpy design.

One idea I already thought of is a Santa Derpy... Why didn't I think of this sooner? Who knows. Maybe because I think Santa is kinda creepy.... (Old guy climbing down my chimney? No thanks!) But if we do Santa, then I should also do a Krampus Derpy... now there is one I can get behind! (Monster climbing down my chimney? Yes please! Don't judge...monsters are less scary than humans - I made a "I read banned books" pin for a reason!) But don't let me hog all the ideas! I want to know YOUR thoughts and holiday ideas!!!


If you are here because you discovered the campaign through the Holiday Market, there is one VERY IMPORTANT thing you should know. Digital stretch goals and rewards will be delivered in December, but, physical rewards will ship in January for pledges without Festive Derpy pins, and in February/March for Festive Derpy pins. All backers will get a downloadable digital Holiday card if you were hoping to give the gift of Derpies to someone this year. Or perhaps you are just early with your shopping!


I think this is all the important things I had to think about today. If you already backed, THANK YOU!!! I love you guys so much, you are the reason I keep creating!!! You made my Holiday sparkle just a little bit more!!!


And if you haven't pledged, yet, check out these colouring pages you can unlock and enjoy this season! PLEDGE NOW<3

Plus you can still get your early bird sticker!





Festive sparkles not your thing? No problem, you can add any of my previous pins in the Stuff-Your-Stocking tier, including heavily discounted bundles of the full sets in the add-ons!


Yours in art,
Therena

PS: Are you a previous backer, pledge now to help upgrade the returning backer reward from a sticker to a mini pin for your collection!
