Angel Policy

As I progress through this Stampin' Up adventure of mine, I find myself wanting to make all kinds of cards, but won't necessarily have many people I can give them to.

This has led to the natural thought, "Well, what if I tried to sell them?" I could see doing this. Maybe you have, too. If so, there's something you should know about.

Stampin' Up images are copyrighted. This means there are certain restrictions in place in terms of how people can use them. You CAN sell cards or other projects you've made with Stampin' Up images, but somewhere on the project, there needs to be a stamp that satisfies the Angel Policy.

What is the Angel Policy? You can read the full details here, and should read them if you plan on selling items using Stampin' Up images. One of the aspects of the Angel Policy is that you need a copyrighted indication on your project. This is available in the Digital Studio, but there are also stamps you can purchase. I'm about to purchase this set:

Three stamps in this set, the Creatively Yours set on page 162, satisfy the Angel Policy. The others are neat stamps to have when giving away home made gifts, especially treats. :D There is another option in the form of the personalized "hand stamped by" stamps on p. 172. If you are going to be making a LOT of cards, having your name ready to stamp, instead of writing it all the time, could be a good thing!
