National Parks Oracle Deck

Hi everyone!

We have some production updates to share. First, we've received the pins and they are gorgeous. Here are some photos:



We're in the very final stages of layout and proofing of the guidebook and box. We're thankful that amongst various uncertainties, the business with tariffs is finally settling down (maybe?) as we get ready to go to print. 

While we were thinking shipping in January could be possible, with the impending holidays and Lunar New Year in the mix, we suspect that timeline is going to stretch into February. We'll have a better sense of that from our printer as we deliver the files. 

Thanks as always for being patient with us as we get these last few pieces wrangled! We're looking forward to this deck as much as you are.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your patience while we roll along with production! Here's the update on what's happening, some looks at the final artwork proofs from our manufacturers, and a glimpse at what's in-progress!

The notebooks have been ordered and are currently in production, with an estimated arrival date of early October.


The bandanas have been ordered and should be arriving this week!



And the final artwork for the pins has been sent to our manufacturer and those will be sent to production next week, with an estimated arrival date of late October to early November.


The last pieces that are still in development are the oracle deck and guidebook! We're finalizing all of the artwork for the cards, laying out the pages of the guidebook, and honing the meanings, facts, and features. We made a few changes to better fit the spirit of the deck, the most important of which was swapping the polar bear for the harbor seal (we opted for actual territory despite being such a well-known symbol of both Alaska and conservation). We'll keep the little guy as a sticker, though! Bonus!

Here's one of my personal favorite finished page spreads from the guidebook (I just love puffins):



Because of the constant fluctuations with overseas manufacturing and tariffs and the especially chaotic nature of reality right now, we're tentatively expecting that shipping will happen in December 2025 or January 2026. We will keep you posted as things progress!

Final friendly reminder! If you still haven't responded to your survey yet please, please, please do it ASAP. We are still missing more than 50 surveys and we will NOT be accepting any late responses once the order is placed with the printer. If you do not get your survey in before then, you may be forfeiting your reward and we cannot provide any refunds for late responses. If you have not received your survey or need help finding your survey, please send an email to [email protected] and we'll be happy to help! :)

Thanks again for bearing with us—all of us Honey Scamps are so grateful for your continued support and can't wait to get all of these goodies into your hands!

Hey folks! We've had a few inquiries about surveys so I wanted to clarify one point – backers who chose Pay Over Time will not receive a survey until the 4 payments are completed. That should occur in August. Once your payment plan is all paid up, you will automatically receive an invite to the survey.

For everyone else, we'll be locking surveys on July 31st. There are about 70 of you outstanding and we'd love to get your orders in ASAP to minimize fulfillment time. Please check your email (and spam folders) for the invite or reach out to us if you need the link to your survey (email us at [email protected]). 

Hi everyone! Thank you for your patience while we've been setting up the Pledge Manager. We just passed our review and everything should be good to go, so we'll start sending out the first batch of Backer Surveys later today. A random selection of backers will be part of this "smoke test" so that we can make sure the surveys are working properly (and iron out and any wrinkles if their not) and then the rest of the surveys will be sent out by this Friday!

Be sure to check your email inboxes for your Backer Survey, and if you don't receive one by Saturday June 28th, please reach out to us at [email protected]. Surveys will close and lock on July 31st.

And if you missed the live campaign, there's a second chance to get the oracle deck and all the other goodies in the Pre-order store!

Thank you again for your support! We're hard at work finalizing all of the art and guidebook content and we can't wait to get this project into the production phase.

Popping in to say thank you, thank you for your support for our National Parks Oracle Deck! This campaign has been a huge success and we are thrilled that we get to make this deck and its associated accessories. Thanks to all 672 backers, this has been the Honey Scamps Art Collective's biggest project yet. We are growing and that is in large part due to each of you!

What's Next
Now that the campaign has ended, we're excited to move into the next phase. We've already started working on the backer survey so that you'll be able to select your rewards and we can place orders with our manufacturers. We are expecting to have the survey out to y'all by mid-June.

We also plan to open the pre-order store for late pledges so stay tuned for that in the coming weeks.

For any retailers who are interested in stocking our deck, please reach out to use at [email protected]

We want to keep you informed every step of the way as we move into production and beyond, so we encourage you to continue following along on our campaign page for the latest updates and announcements. And as always, feel free to reach out to us via email if you have any pressing questions or concerns!

With gratitude,
The Honey Scamps Team
