DA Flower Zine

@daflowerzine / daflowerzine.tumblr.com

ARDENT BLOSSOM is an unofficial fan project designed to celebrate the world of the Dragon Age franchise. This zine is built around flowers and floriography, and will have flowers and various flora of Thedas at the core of each art and writing piece.

Pre-orders are CLOSED!

Thank you so much for your support. Please keep an eye on our socials for various updates about production and shipping!

Reminder that the shop was for PRE-ORDERS. This means bundles will begin shipping in about two months!

In the meantime, feel free to reblog or reply to this post showing off your Rook - tell us what flower you think represents them! (SPOILER-FREE PLEASE!)

Questions? Leave us an ask or email us at daflowerzine @ gmail(dot)com.

‼️ADDRESS UPDATE SURVEY IS LIVE‼️

🌻ARDENT BLOSSOM bundles will begin shipping APRIL 2025.

If your name or address has changed since you ordered in Sept-Oct 2024, please fill out the Address Update Survey.

If your name or address has changed, you MUST complete this survey by April 15th, 2025. If you do not complete this survey by April 15th, 2025, then your bundle will be shipped to the original street address you provided when you pre-ordered.

All customers should have received an email containing the link to this survey. Please look for an email in your inbox from daflowerzine @ gmail(dot)com. More information is contained in the email. You can also find that information in the Address Update Survey, linked here: https://tinyurl.com/49s7azf8

If you have any questions, please complete the survey and leave your email address in the comments section at the end. Or, send us an ask.

Hi!! Just out of curiosity, I remember something about April deliveries being mentioned. Have you got any updates? Thank you so much for making this zine!

We sure do!

We will be sending out an email asking for updated addresses to all customers within the next few days. PLEASE make sure to add our email to your contacts (daflowerzine @ gmail dot com) to avoid the email going straight to spam.

99% of our merch has arrived and is sitting ready to be packed (sitting in the garage for now - pic below!). We're waiting on a set of unannounced stickers that we added on as a special stretch goal and some custom shipping supplies, and then we'll be working on packing and shipping about 550 orders!

We will post on Tumblr and Twitter when the address survey goes out. Keep an eye out for updates on the super special stickers, as well as a few other pieces we haven't previewed yet!

Please note that all digital PDF orders will be emailed out once shipping has begun!

The mods are SO excited to finally get this zine out to our wonderful customers!

Please be sure to sign up to our mailing list here if you'd like to get emails about the status of our leftover sale: [LINK]

Presenting our BOOKPLATES!

Each game-specific bundle will receive the bookplate for their particular game, and full bundles receive all three!

DAO: Duncan by @prosodi DA2: Fenris by @hergnomieness DAI: Dorian by @fensyl

Bookplates are full-page stickers that you place sign with your name and place inside your zine to identify EX LIBRIS - from the library of! There is a blank page at the front of the zine where you can place the bookplate.

If you have any questions, please feel free to drop us an ask or send an email to daflowerzine @ gmail (dot) com.

Have the surveys for shipping addresses gone out yet? I accidentally deleted my order email from you guys so I'm a bit worried about deleting that one as well. Sorry to bother you and appreciate the updates.

No, the shipping surveys have not gone out yet! We will make an announcement on our socials when we do.

You can let us know your name/previous address here, on Twitter, or via email and we can resend the order email as well.

ARDENT BLOSSOM is proud to present the FIELD JOURNAL! Because this stretch goal was met during the original presale period, the field journal will be automatically included in ALL merch bundles!🌼

As a certified Junior Botanist of the Thedas Botanical Society, be sure to take your field journal EVERYWHERE so you can take notes on any new and fascinating specimens you might find in the wild!

Plant identification tools are included at the end of your journal! This should make it easy to identify different varietes of elfroot by their leaf shape and margin!

Thank you so much! We really had a vision with this zine and wanted to ensure we captured it, so we’re very pleased with how it turned out. We’re very excited to start shipping soon!

🌺Thank you everyone for your patience as the ARDENT BLOSSOM team deals with some internal production issues - but we're proud to announce that the zines are on their way to the mod team!🌺

More preview videos to come in the next week or so. Bundles expected to ship APRIL 2025!

If you have any questions, please feel free to drop us an ask or send an email to daflowerzine @ gmail (dot) com.

Hello! I was wondering if there's still any time to change my address or if all orders have been shipped? We have an unexpected move that we have to make by April 1st, so I was curious :(

Don't worry, there is still plenty of time! Orders will likely not be shipped until April. Approximately 1-2 weeks before shipping, we will send out a survey to everyone who ordered asking for an updated shipping address. We want to make sure your orders get to you!

If you're concerned, you can also email us at daflowerzine @ gmail.com with your order number and new address.

hello! any updates on when orders will be shipped out? we're super excited for the zine!

Hello!

For complete transparency, we have run into quite a few road blocks with the zine. However, the final orders were put in on February 20th, so everything is finally on the way.

We are likely looking at April shipments. This is not ideal from our end or for our customers, and we're throwing in a few extra goodies to make up for the delays. Thank you for your patience and we'll be making an official announcement in the coming days!

Hello!! I'm in the process of (finally) hanging up a bunch of zine merch I've collected over the years all fancy-like in frames-- I was wondering if you could provide the dimensions of the travel postcards and bookplates so I can order some frames for them? Thank you!!

Avatar

Hello! The bookplates and travel postcards are all 4x6. Thanks for the great question!

I can't wait to see the full bundles when their time comes! Are you still going to send out surveys to check for address updates when you get closer to that time? We may be living in an apartment by then and may have to change ours.

Do you know who you will be shipping through as well? (So I know what to expect depending on USPS, fedex, etc lol)

Avatar

Hello! We will primarily be using USPS to ship. And yes, confirming that we will be sending out surveys to check for address updates - we are waiting on a confirmation of the date when we will have all products in hand before we send out a survey, in order to make sure we have the most recent addresses.

Thank you everyone for your patience in this process!

are there any further updates for how orders are going?

Avatar

Hello!

Most of our merch items are either in production, shipped, or have arrived. We are looking at few delays for the remaining products due to the Lunar New Year. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that full bundles will ship before March. We are extremely hopeful that it will be sooner than that, but want to be completely transparent about our timelines.

We will have more photo updates of products over the next few days. Thank you!

🌺Another sneak peek at our merch - presenting one of our successful stretch goals, the TOTE BAG!🌺

Featuring 11 characters from DAO, DA2, and DAI along canon in-game plants - many of which are referenced in codex entries in the zine.

hi there!! i'm moving in a couple weeks and i was wondering when the cutoff is if i were to change my shipping address? if its too late at this point, thats okay, i have friends here to get my package!

Avatar

Hello! No worries, we will be sending out a survey just before shipping to verify shipping addresses for all customers. You will have up until the moment you receive the shipping confirmation email to update your address. This will probably be in early February!

We know previously we had stated late January, but we are cognizant of potential shipping delays from manufacturers around Lunar New Year, which is coming up shortly.
