This listing is for a ‘No Credit Extended Commercial License’ to use alongside unlimited amounts of separately purchased clip art sets, paper packs or similar products from our shop. This permits use of our artwork without the need to give credit to The Art of Paper Craft.
All our digital products come with a Small Business Commercial Licence as standard which means you can use our artwork on your blogs or social media pages etc. without having to credit us. However, if you use our artwork to make items to sell, we do require that you provide image credit and a link back to our shop. This should be clearly visible wherever you use our images and for online sales, this information should be included in the listing. Along with the link to our shop, please display wording to this effect: Images/Artwork by: TheArtofPaperCraft.etsy.com
► If you are happy to do this then there is no need to purchase this licence.

Additional information and FAQs.
Why buy a licence from us?
We offer commercial use of all our graphics, which means you may use our graphics on your personal blogs and social media pages etc. without having to credit us. However if you are using our clip art or other artwork for an item that you make to sell, then you MUST attribute credit to us. This license allows you to use an unlimited number of clip art sets to create your item(s) for sale without having to credit us in any way.
What do I get?
You will receive a PDF licence agreement that you should keep for your records (a PDF reader is available online free of charge from Adobe.com). You can purchase this licence along with other items in your basket or at a later stage. In line with other sellers, we regularly check the usage of our graphics and may ask you to provide us with your order number to verify that you have bought the appropriate licence.
What does the license provide?
It allows you to use an unlimited number of sets of graphics, artwork or clip art, royalty free and without the need to give credit to The Art of Paper Craft. It covers any previous and all future purchases.
What constitutes one set?
A set is one listing, this applies to clip art, artwork, graphics, paper packs and any other digital products.
What if I want to use only part of each clip art set?
You will still need to purchase a licence to use all or part of each clip art set or paper pack.
What am I allowed to sell commercially?
You can use all our digital products to create new products for sale such as greeting cards, stationery, digital collage sheets, packaging, prints, websites, banners and blogs. You can also sell your creations in patterns, and on other websites such as Zazzle and Spoonflower. Remember it must be a new creation that you have made and not a direct copy of the design purchased.
What am I not allowed to do with your graphics?
Copy or transfer to anyone else. Resell our items unaltered, in their original digital form. This also includes using our graphics as part of a digital scrapbook kit, printable card project for CraftsuPrint and selling digital paper or creating new graphics out of our clip art. Also, we do not permit the sale of our designs unaltered and presented as your own work, anywhere. This includes platforms such as Zazzle and Spoonflower or any other ‘print on demand’ websites.
What if I make several items for sale from one set of clip art?
That’s fine and you need purchase only one licence. The licence relates to each listing or set of clip art that you use and not how many times you use it.
Can I use your graphics in an item I create for sale without purchasing a licence?
Yes you can but when you list an item for sale, in the item description you MUST include credit and a link back to our shop. Please use wording to this effect: Images/Artwork by: TheArtofPaperCraft.etsy.com
Can I use more than one set of graphics in items I make for sale?
Yes, simply purchase the relevant number of licences for however many sets you wish to use, alternatively it may be more cost effective to purchase our ‘Unlimited No Credit Commercial Licence’ which will cover any set you buy now and in the future.
If you’re still unsure about what you can and cannot do, please get in touch via Etsy convo and we’ll answer any questions you may have.
