Scrap for Hire (S4H)

Sahlin Studio is Scrap for Hire (S4H) friendly.  But I do have some stipulations in my Terms of Use as follows:  I am scrap for hire friendly, which means you may use Sahlin Studio products for your Scrap for Hire business, without the purchase of an additional Limited Professional Use License. My definition of a “Scrap for Hire” business is when you use the designs for your small HOME / HOBBY Scrap for Hire business that focuses on scrapbooking CUSTOM pages for others.  You may use Sahlin Studio designs provided that the designs are custom designs for each customer and not a generic page design to sell as a “print on demand” type of option.  Basically this means the designs may be used with your business… But, you may NOT use my products to create generic ‘Sahlin Studio’ products to sell and claim as your own.  Also, the finished scrapbook page is to be provided to the client as a flattened, uneditable jpg format (if supplied digitally) or in printed form. (i/e/ NO PSD files, NO quickpages or holes left for pictures to go, NO individual paper or element files are allowed)  (If you are a Photography business, you would NOT fit into this category and must purchase a limited Professional Use license).
