Created by Jody Eklund

SOVEREIGN reimagines the courts of a standard deck of playing cards with illustrations that are gorgeous and intricate.

One last thing!

Hey everyone!

I wanted to send out the last update before Sovereign ends next Thursday. Yup, we only have 4 more days left. 

I thought we might hit the 800% stretch goal and unlock the Antique Metal Card, but doesn't look like that will be possible.

But wait...there is nothing that says I couldn't change the amount the stretch goal is. I really want to make the card, so how about unlock it now? What do you think...should I unlock it? Yup that is what I thought you'd say!

The Antique Gold Metal Card is now unlocked. You can add it on to your current pledge for $30 U.S. and $32 INTL.

See you all at the finish line!

Hey everyone!

I am so thankful for all your support for Sovereign. Without your support, Sovereign would not be a reality and the extras planned could not happen. Thank you!

Confusion Understood

I have heard from many of you that you are confused about the Swap/Add-on option for the Exquisite Set. I am so sorry for the confusion. My desire was to allow people that were able to get into an Early Bird tier to not have to get out of their coveted reward tier just to get the Exquisite Set. Please don't worry, once the project is finished, BackerKit will clear up the confusion and help you to confirm your desired rewards. I always try something new in every project. Some are good and some not so good. I don't like to confuse you, so consider this something I will learn from.

MetalLuxe

I am so excited to use MetalLuxe for the Exquisite deck. Using MetalLuxe should really make for a beautiful deck. While getting files sent to USPCC I was told that MetalLuxe couldn't be registered with other colors on the cards. There are too many variances with the registration. This of course, threw me for a loop. I wanted the multiple colors and sought for a remedy all last week. 

This happens sometimes, but I feel that my solution is a good one. I had to eliminate the multiple color design and just stick to the Gold Foil. I have to say, the one color Gold makes for a more sophisticated and luxurious look.

I hope you will agree, these look amazing!

Stretch Goal $102,000 (600%)

I have been thinking through how to offer something that would be worth your desire for a better project. I am still working on it. Because it is something I have never offered before. it took me a bit to figure out the details.

Add-on for $35 U.S. / $37 INTL.

This is a prototype rendering. Not real thing.

Stretch Goal $136,000 (800%)

I want to show you all something that I have been working on as well for another Stretch Goal. It's a metal card. It is meant to be a collector's item for the Sovereign series. I have seen this done before a few years ago and I've always wanted to do something like it. Let me know what you all think.

This is a prototype rendering. Not the real thing.

Sincerely, 

Jody

400% STRETCH GOAL UNLOCKED: EXQUISITE SETS ARE AVAILABLE!
over 4 years ago – Wed, Jan 29, 2020 at 07:52:49 PM

Hi everyone!

I feel like it wasn't very long ago I sent out the update for the 200% Stretch Goal being unlocked and now the 400% Stretch Goal...Wow! We are chugging along. Thank you all for your awesome support!

Introducing the EXQUISITE SET:

A gorgeous way to collect all of the decks in this Sovereign Kickstarter. It will include all three decks, Sovereign Blue, Red and Exquisite editions, gilded to perfection. The cover will have the Sovereign emblem laser engraved on to it.

This will be limited, Only so many will be made, so you can not add it to your current pledge (unless you are in one of the Early Bird Tiers). You will have to be in a tier that has the Exquisite set in it. 

Thank you again for your awesome support!

Sincerely,

Jody
