I've seen your mug - you have nothing to fear! :))
I'm looking forward to the launch and not just because I consulted on it. I gave you my services free of charge because I believed in the design and wanted it to become the best possible deck you could make from it - and I think you've succeeded. You should be very proud of the end result and I think you'll find backers with very little difficulty!
Big fan of this deck. I'll be on board for sure. ;D
Alright, here is the preview link for the campaign: http://www.cocktailhourcards.com
Hope everything is on point for you all! Happy to to hear feedback/suggestions on the project page. :)
Thanks!
Sarah
I think the campaign page looks great, shows your personality I think. The deck stands on it's own and you've managed to make the campaign page warm and inviting while letting us know all the important bits. The pledge tiers are also well laid out in my opinion. Good stuff, LAUNCH IT NAO! hahaha
I like this deck but it's a little pricey at $15. If I can get the 2 for $20 EB deal, I'll be in. But if not, I'll probably wait to see if the stretch goals are unlocked.

@PrincessTrouble! I heard some similar feedback on the other forum. My goal is set a little lower without some bells and whistles to ensure that it gets made! But I'm pretty confident that at least one – if not both – of the stretch goals will be met (I'm marketing like crazy). However, I'm going to take another look at my budget and see if there's a little number crunching I can do. :)
And by the way. Each card is associated with a classic cocktail. I'm introducing a court card each day leading up to the launch with their respective drink, over on my Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/s.ferone (It does happen to be #worldcocktailday today.)
CHEERS!

$15 for a single deck is more like the median or the average than the high end.

For a $15 deck, I expect embossing or foil on the tuck. But to each his own. Good luck with the project. I'll be keeping my eye on it.
One week in and just shy of the half way point!
Big thank you to everyone who's supported so far! Check out the project if you haven't done so yet, I would greatly appreciate it :)

Also, I was also interviewed by Tales of the Cocktail about the cocktail half of this project and shared some process stuff:

Cheers!
It's an awesome interview - hopefully that gave your backing a shot in the arm as well as one down the hatch! :))
WE'RE 100% FUNDED!!
And well on our way to the first stretch goal to add copper foil. :)

I couldn't have done it without the support of the community here, so my sincerest gratitude to you all. CHEERS!!

To quote a certain comic-book superhero, "BOO-YAH!"
So - the project got funded, but the stretch goal didn't get reached. Congratulations, Sarah - now comes the real work!
Good luck!
FYI – I'm using Backerkit to manage pledges and set up PreOrders. I'll be promoting that link in a couple weeks everywhere.
Hey everyone – quick update and a surprise!
Pre-Orders for this deck closes tomorrow, July 13. Check it out before it's too late: www.cocktailhourcards.com
Also, I just looked at the budget and it does seem there is room to add copper foil to the tuck box! (Even though this campaign did NOT meet the stretch goal) It's really hard to plan these budgets, especially for your first Kickstarter. I'm glad all my research paid off and I'm able to offer this feature.
THANK YOU!
Got my decks. Very happy with them. Great job, Sarah.
Hey Sarah,
Any future plans for another deck!?!?
wow a super nice deck! will definitely on board when it's time!

Hi,
I would love to bring these in and sell at our shop in South Africa.
Does anyone know who would sell these internationally?
Thanks
Mike
