Dear you,

If everything goes well, we receive all card decks from the printer on Dec 21st!

It was our biggest hope and plan we could get them all to you by Christmas, but we're afraid we can't guarantee that PostNL is able to deliver so quickly in a busy December month!

Please let us know if your deck is supposed to be a Christmas gift for a loved one, then we'll send those decks first.

For the rest of you, please bear with us, the printing house and PostNL, as we all do our best to let our hummingbird fly off as soon as she can!

Love, Ernestine and Annabel

Dearest supporter of The Art of Flow,

we wanted to share the news with you that we just received the 2nd proof print of our deck and she looks beautiful!

Let my biggest fan (aka daughter Filine of 8 yrs old) show you a card she picked that was (ofcourse;)) perfect for this moment: 'Gratitude'!

Now Annabel and I planned the last meeting with our graphic designer to fix the last details and then we're off to print the first edition!

Here's a little preview especially for you!

(Shot with my phone, so forgive me, but enjoy!)

Let you know more soon!

Thanks for being here and have a lovely weekend!

Love, Ernestine and Annabel (and Filine:))

Dear you,

we did it! We made it past 80% of our crowdfunding goal!
That means, that 'The Art of Flow' is ready to fly!

We are so very grateful for your support. We want to thank you for your pre-orders, donations, the big and small ones. And also, all of your sweet messages! It is heart warming to hear that you are just as excited as we are.

It really feels like 'The Art of Flow' is lifting off with a big family surrounding us. Thank you!

Now, with the last hours still running, very last pre-orders can be made... After that, we will prepare everything, to get the hummingbird to fly to your doorstep as soon as we can.

We will keep you updated on the flight of 'The Art of Flow' and when you can expect to hold her in your hands.

Thank you so much for being here,

Ernestine & Annabel

Hi there, wonderful contributors to the Art of Flow,
!! We reached 2/3rds of our goal amount and we can share the happy news that the flight of the hummingbird will lift off no matter what happens next!

Now: we have 4 days left to get as far as we can!

--> If you know anyone who would like to contribute by preordering, for herself, or a loved one, a yoga-studio, coaching space, concept store etc, please let them know, so we can reach as much of the goal amount as we can!

Thank you for being here!

Dear all,

how has your weekend been?

This is where we are: at the amazing percentage of 57%!!

But with 11 days to go and 43% to go, you can imagine we need all the help we can get!

So...if you know anyone for whom this card deck is a great gift, or a helpful tool to find the flow, please let them know about our crowdfunding?!

We'd also love to get in touch with : concept stores, yoga studios, wellbeing centers, facilitators, coaches, pracitioners who'd love to spread the word and art of this beautiful deck:)!

With eternal gratitude for your help and the contribution you already made,

love Ernestine & Annabel

Today, we got a big surprise!

We received the totally unexpected, but INCREDIBLE news that the 'Prins Bernhard Cultuur Fonds' has supported us with a big donation!!
We never expected this, didn't even think about an organization like that being willing to support a project like this!

But Voordekunst told us we might have a shot and went for it.

So here we are: all of a sudden at 55% of our target amount!

And this on a day when we talked about feeling the pressure of 'having a goal' and a limited amount of days left to reach it. On a day that we decided to reach our goal from a place of trust and inner peace. Also if that means that we would adjust our goal in the end. To go with the flow:).
Looks like the universe blew the wind beneath our little hummingbird's wings to fly high!

Thanks to all of you and the Prins Bernhard Cultuur Fonds for your support until now!

Dear you,

please know that we can't see yet what you donated exactly. We do see some personal names with the motivations, but it's only until the campaign has finished that we get to see who to thank for what exactly!

Please also know that we are equally thankful for every amount however small or big that you donated.

Dear all! Wow, what a start!!

Last week, Voordekunst said to us: 'it would be great if you get could to 20% in the first week.' That's a lot! We had no idea if we could get to this amount...

but look at where we are with all you: 36% of our goal has been donated!!

From the bottom of our hearts: thank you for lifting off with us!

Yesterday, someone asked me about the guide that accompanies the cards. What is it exactly? This person was not yet familiar with card decks, so I was happy she asked the question!

The guide that you receive with your cards has 48 messages, one for every card.

This message is written a bit like a poem, but has a practical instruction as well sometimes. Like a guided meditation, or a yogapose.

You can turn to the guide when you've picked a card, but you can also read it as a booklet without picking a card. Just as you can pick a card without turning to the guide, to interpret the drawing yourself!

Wow, we are truly moved by the loving first responses to our deck! I, Ernestine, didn't know donations could come with a motivational message, so this was a heartwarming surprise! Thank you!!
