During November, SU! in the US made changes to their angel policy to allow retail selling of handstamped items, using their copyrighted images. Here is a link to a related blog post at the time of the US announcement: http://stampingismybusiness.typepad.com/blog/2007/10/breaking-news--.html
Ever since the announcement, I've been anxiously waiting and watching to hear if we were going to get the same changes here. I'm pleased to announce that we are!
On December 1, 2007, Stampin' Up!® Australia announced the following change to our angel policy, effective from January 1, 2008;
"Completed, hand-stamped projects may be sold at competitive and non-competitive permanent retail locations, as well as temporary craft events, community fundraisers, and over the Internet. In selling hand-stamped projects, the seller must make it clear that the items are hand-made, and not a product of the company. The seller may indicate that the supplies used are from Stampin' Up!, but the Stampin' Up! logo may not be used in any way for the sole purpose of promoting the sale of hand-stamped projects."
This is such fantastic news! With these changes, we now all have an extra way to enjoy our awesome Stampin' Up!® stamps -and earn a little pocket money while we're at it! If you would like some further details on retail selling of your handstamped items, email me today.
