Hi my dear friends 🤍
Just a quick reminder - today is the last day to complete your survey.
Tomorrow I’ll be closing BackerKit to finalize everything and place the production order.
If you haven’t filled it out yet, please check your email from BackerKit and complete your survey as soon as possible.
And if you were thinking about adding extra decks - this is your moment ✨
Thank you so much for being part of this journey with me 🤍
Daria
P.S. Dear ones, I’ve received many messages that some of you didn’t get emails from BackerKit - please don’t worry 🤍
Even after I close the survey, anyone who missed it will still get access to complete it. I’ll just need to reopen it manually, which may take a bit more time and can cause some confusion, but I will go through each case individually and make sure everyone is taken care of.
For now, please follow these steps:
Check your spam folder (the email you used on Kickstarter) and also try searching your inbox for “BackerKit”.
We’ll sort everything out, don’t worry ✨

Hi my dear friends 🤍
I have some exciting news - I finally received the funds… yay! ✨
I’ve started sending out surveys, but for now they were sent to a small group of backers first. I did this intentionally to make sure everything is working correctly before sending them to everyone.
If you didn’t receive your survey yet - no worries at all. The rest will be sent out tomorrow.
📩 You will receive an email from BackerKit - please make sure to check your inbox (and spam/promotions folder just in case).
Inside the survey, you’ll be able to:
• confirm your shipping address
• pay for shipping
• add extra decks to your order
I know many of you wanted to get additional copies - now is your chance.
I’ve also added something special, available only for backers:
✨ a deep tarot reading from me at a special price ✨
This is not something I usually offer at this rate, so if you’ve been thinking about getting a reading - this is the perfect moment.
Please complete your survey by April 21 so I can finalize quantities and place the production order.
And yes… we are moving forward with black core cardstock 🖤
I know how many of you were hoping for this, and I’m really happy we’re making it happen.
Thank you again for being part of this project. Your support truly means everything to me.

Pre-orders are Live • Surveys Coming Soon • Black Core Update
6 months ago
– Fri, Mar 27, 2026 at 01:46:20 PM
Hi my dear friends 🤍
I’m coming to you with a lot of updates.
For the past few days I’ve been fully inside BackerKit trying to set everything up properly… and I think I finally did it 😄 It was my first time working with it, so it took me a bit, but I really wanted everything to be correct and smooth for you.
First of all - pre-orders (late pledges) are now open on BackerKit.
If you missed the campaign, you can still get the deck via the link in the project.
Now about the surveys.
I originally planned to send them today, but BackerKit strongly recommends waiting until Kickstarter finishes processing payments (around 14 days after the campaign ends). I want to do everything properly, so we’ll follow that.
👉 You will receive your survey next week.
Inside the survey you’ll be able to:
• confirm your address
• and add extra decks if you wanted more
(I know many of you asked about this - don’t worry, everyone will have time to do it.)
Now… about black core.
I’ve decided that I really want to try to bring this upgrade to life. I’ve already ordered a sample deck with black core cardstock because I want to personally check the quality before moving forward.
To be completely transparent - we are currently missing a fairly significant amount to comfortably cover this upgrade. Part of it is due to failed payments, and this can already add up to several thousand dollars. So if you had any issues with your pledge, please check your email - Kickstarter will usually send you instructions on how to fix it.
Of course, I could turn this into another push, set a new goal, and actively encourage everyone to upgrade…
But I don’t want this to feel like pressure in any way.
You have already done so much by supporting this project, by believing in me and in what I create - and I truly appreciate that more than you can imagine.
If you feel like doing more, you will have the option to add extra decks or choose a reading inside the survey.
But please know - you’ve already given enough.
Everything beyond that is simply your choice 🤍
Just like it is my choice to move forward and try to make this deck better, even if it feels a little scary.
Because for me, this is also a step into something new.
I’ve never done a box like this before. I’ve never worked with black core at this scale. And since there are two designs involved, I need to place a larger minimum order to make it possible.
So yes… it’s a bit of a leap for me.
But it’s one I really want to take.
Now about international shipping.
I want to be honest here again.
My previous three projects were very difficult specifically because of international shipping. I undercharged, and I had to cover the difference from my own pocket - I lost thousands of dollars that way.
On top of that, I used cheaper shipping services:
• very slow delivery
• poor tracking
• lost packages
And again - I covered all of that myself. It was stressful, expensive, and honestly overwhelming.
This time I made a different decision.
International shipping is a bit higher, but:
• it will be handled by a reliable carrier
• every package will have proper tracking
• delivery will be faster and much safer
I truly hope for your understanding here.
At the same time, if you are currently going through financial difficulties and are located outside of the US, you can message me directly. I can try to arrange a cheaper shipping option, but please understand that in this case I won’t be able to take responsibility for delays or lost packages.
I’m also already thinking about improving this in the future - for example, having a warehouse in Europe (Germany or Latvia) to reduce costs. But for now, this is the safest and most reliable option I can offer.
And… I really hope I was able to make my international backers at least a little happier with the black core upgrade 😄
I know this situation is not really in my control, but I’m the kind of person who genuinely cares. My returning backers already know this - I always try to support everyone and make sure you feel taken care of.
That’s honestly my mission.
Thank you for being here with me 🤍
I’ll keep you updated very soon.
p.s. This is the first sample- and it’s truly breathtaking.
I cried when I opened it… the quality is on another level 🔥
✨ Project Completed - And This Is Just the Beginning

Dear backers,
We did it. The project is officially completed - and I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am to each and every one of you. You didn’t just support a deck… you helped bring this entire vision to life.
This means so much to me. Thank you for your trust, your energy, and for being part of this journey. 🤍
And honestly… this is only the beginning.
🖤 About the Stretch Goal (Black Core)
We came so close to unlocking the black core upgrade - just a little over $400 away.
And I want to be honest with you… I don’t feel ready to let this go.
It doesn’t feel right that such a small gap could stop us from bringing this upgrade to life.
So here’s my commitment to you:
✨ I will do everything I can to make this happen.
After the campaign, I’ll be opening late pledges through BackerKit, which gives us another real opportunity to reach this goal.
I will also speak with my supplier to explore if there’s any way to make this upgrade possible with a lower minimum requirement.
I’m not giving up on this. Not yet.
I truly believe we can still make it happen - and I will keep you updated every step of the way.
Thank you again for being here with me.
We’ve already created something incredible together… and I’m not done yet.
With love,
Dasha 🤍
⏳ Final 24 Hours - We Are So Close!
7 months ago
– Wed, Mar 18, 2026 at 11:22:24 AM
Dear backers,
I can’t believe I’m writing this… we are on the final stretch.
There are only 24 hours left until the campaign ends, and honestly - it still doesn’t feel real. This journey has been so intense, beautiful, and meaningful, and seeing all of you here supporting this project means more to me than I can put into words.
And the most incredible part…
We are getting so close to $25,000.
Which means we are right at the edge of unlocking our next stretch goal - black core cardstock.
This upgrade would bring the deck to a completely different level. The cards would be more durable, feel more premium in your hands, and have that deep, solid quality that you usually only see in high-end tarot decks.
And I’ll be honest with you… this is a huge step for me.
As a small creator, reaching this level of production feels almost unreal. It’s something I couldn’t do alone, and the fact that we are even this close already feels like a dream.
But we’re not there yet.
If we push just a little more - we can make it happen.
So if you’ve been thinking about:
• upgrading your pledge
• adding another deck
• or sharing the project with someone who might love it
This is the moment.
I would be incredibly, deeply happy if we unlock this together. It would mean stepping into a completely new level for this project - and for me as a creator.
Thank you for being here. Truly.
Let’s finish this strong 🤍
With love,
Dasha
