Hello party people!

Wow, as I’m typing this, we are so incredibly close to our artists pay bump at 75K. This is some thing that we have really been working towards!!!

We are a pretty small Indy company, so we don’t have the kind of budget that large companies may have to pay their artists what they TRULY deserve. So we are so grateful for all of the love and support for our projects and for artists. We couldn’t do any of this without you.

We’re constantly thinking of how and what to gift you. We had all of these ideas at the start, but if you have been following us a while, you know that we work organically, and tend to use our intuition, and intuition can’t be planned. So we are probably going to change a few things around with achievement goals, and achieve them sooner than later than we had originally planned. We hope this will keep up the excitement for the last 10 days and make this a super epic bash where everyone gets a lot of really cool exclusive things that you will not get outside the project.

On that note...

We have decided, since we are SO CLOSE to giving all of our artists their first pay bump, we will release the Dream Team card!!!

The Dream Team card is incredibly special to us. It was lovingly created by the one and only Michael Calandra. He painted it for our upcoming 78 Tarot Masters Medieval deck, which will be launching next year. We are including it in our birthday deck, because as the three of cups, it is the epitome of our project. We are the heartbeat and the soul behind every single deck. We work so hard and love our artists more than anything and we really want to celebrate with all of you with this amazing Dream Team card.

It features, Trish Sullivan, Delphine Malidore, and myself, Kayti Welsh. We are the three founders of 78 tarot. Without these incredible souls, none of this project would ever exist. We celebrate every single one of you, and we thank every single one of you for helping us make our dreams come true year after year. 

Next, I want to talk about two of our exclusive add-ons. We are offering these very exclusive add-ons that contain the artwork of cards from the deck. The artwork is being chosen in polls by all of you, and we will be including the most popular vote as images.

This calendar is something that we’ve always wanted to do, but we’ve never really figured out a good way to do it. By offering it to you as an exclusive campaign only add-on, we are giving you the chance to own something that nobody else will own. 

We are using the same printer and it will be printed on beautiful luxurious paper so the colors of the art will really pop. Spiral bound so it’s super easy to hang on the wall flat or to have on your desk flat. The cover will be accented with gold holo to match the card backs. The pages will be 8 1/2 x 11 landscape so the art can be beautifully seen.

We have been voting in polls since the beginning of the launch party pre-campaign, and have chosen a lot of the images already, which you can see below. Want to add it to your pledge? Just select it as an add-on or choose a pledge tier that has it :) 



The next month we will be voting on is July, and the choices are:

Make sure to vote for the image you want for July in the attached poll!

If you’ve been following us for a while, you know our amazing Trish Sullivan is the goddess of tarot spreads. She creates spreads for her personal clients, for publications for 78 Tarot as well as free gifts on our social media and newsletter. She also creates them for herself on her own website, and she is phenomenal at what she does. 

So, for the first time ever, we are offering a spread book like no other. We have been receiving your ideas and your feedback, and we have made it a reality. 

This book will be 8 1/2 x 11, the size of a letter size paper. It will be beautifully printed artwork that you will choose. We have chosen the following so far. More votes to come starting tomorrow!

You are also voting on the themes. The themes of each spread included in the book are something that is community chosen. We are voting on one theme, and one spread art from every single deck we have ever published. We are also including spreads for our zodiacs, our elementals and our witches of the seasons.

This spread book will be spiral bound so you can lay it flat. Our pocket size deck cards will fit beautifully within this template.

The front cover will have gold holographic to match the rest of the project.

This book as well as the calendar are very exclusive, and will only be offered inside backer kit to raise money for our artists. They will never again be sold by us, or even given away in the future. This is the only chance you will have to get these calendars from us. 

Feel free to message us at info@ 78tarot.cards if you’d like to ask us any questions. Sometimes we do not get notifications for discussion posts, we do our best to keep up with everything but it’s very easy to miss things. So if you want to reach us immediately and directly just email us.

That’s all for now! We are so gratefulfor everything and everyone and let’s keep this party going so we can just shower you with more wonderful gifts. 

XOXO

PS: A few people have asked us - everyone who buys a deck, pocket or regular sized, will get the PDF version of the book, so that means if you get the hard back you also get the PDF. 

Hello party people!

Wow it has been amazing to see our party grow! Thank you so much for being here and for supporting our incredible artists! Because of all of you amazing people we are so very close to a pay bump for all 111 of our artists! Which happens if we hit 75k!!!! 

A gift for you! 

We have decided that it is a perfect time to release the very exclusive special Frog of Serenity card by the amazing Annette Hassell as many people are celebrating Mother’s Day this weekend.

We know it’s not a happy time for everyone, so we thought offering this special gift would bring a little smile to the faces of those that need it. How can this frog not make you smile? 

Frogs hold a very special place in my heart, and for anyone who knows me you know they are my magical spirit guides. They have helped me through my own journey of infertility which I went through for years before I had my two miracles. 

May this frog celebrate you, comfort you, bless you with abundance peace and serenity. 

We have decided as a special gift that all the exclusive cards will be included with every reward tier that is mailed and not just the decks. The exclusive cards will only be printed in the big deck format (not pocket) but this way if you want to buy the deck later you will have the special cards that will only be for backers. 

That’s all for now! How you are all having a magical weekend. Sending energy and love to everyone, and a little bit more to whomever needs a bit extra.

There is not going to be much to this update. 

Just wanted to let you know we have decided on an early gift! Since we hit 70k today (thank you thank you) we decided to 

Everyone who backs this project will also get this very exclusive card.

The Lucky Chicken will be printed with the deck, but separated! And ONLY backers will ever own this special special card.

When you draw the lucky chicken, you know it’s going to be a good day!



Our way of saying how much we love and appreciate you. 

That is all for now :)

Hello Party People!!!

Happy Friday 🥳🥳🥳

Wow this poll has been so fun to watch! This ends today so make sure you get your vote in for the already unlocked sticker! We are also very close to unlocking the 600 backers sticker. 

Here is what you have unlocked so far! 

And at the time I’m composing this update we are extremely close to unlocking the next community chosen sticker - The Sun - at 600 backers!!!

So, we need your help! Moving to BackerKit means we have a harder time connecting with our usual Kickstarter audience. And I’m pouring all I can into marketing but we are not a huge business at all, and we don’t have the budget giant projects have.

This is where you come in. 💕
We have created an Action Achievement Goal - that I attached to this update. To achieve this goal you must share the link in the achievement goal 500 times. I know it’s a big ask! But we have a big reward attached! We will unlock the coveted Lucky Chicken Card.





This magnificent card was created by the one and only Amelia Leonards and it is a BackerKit EXCLUSIVE card. This means ONLY BACKERS OF THIS PROJECT will ever own this highly collectible card! We have never done this before and are extremely excited!!!! It’s a way of rewarding our Backers and thanking them in an extra special way. It also is an extra gig for artists so it’s a win for everyone!

We set our publishing goal with enough to print and fulfill everything and give our artists 50.00 each for their art. This is way less than they deserve, which is why we have built artist paybumps in. Our first paybump is at 75k and we hope to hit as many pay bumps as possible before the end of this campaign on the 23rd of May. We have 20 days to go!!!

So here are ways you can help us raise money for our amazing artists!

Addons: We have addons galore! Other decks of ours, accessories like pouches and cases and so much more! Here’s the full list:


To add this to your pledge, you simply go to the campaign and click the Add-Ons tab.
We will be fulfilling this in the fall so plenty of time for holiday gifts!

We have two Backer Exclusive Addons. These are the Calendar and the Spread Book. These are extremely special and will only be owned by Backers of this project.



Sharing our project helps so much, and we are so very grateful for every single share.

Make sure to use the attached Achievement Goal Share button in order to be counted towards the 500 share achievement goal to unlock the Lucky Chicken card!



Thank you so much, to everyone who has pledged, shared and sent words of encouragement. We could not do any of this without our community. Thank you so much for loving our artists. 

Can’t wait to unlock the Lucky Chicken Card!!!!!
