ABOUT AOD GRAPHICS
Our About page contains information on stencils, templates, svgs, commercial usage rights, and policies on digital downloads. Please read on to find out more.
AOD Graphics offers high-quality reusable plastic stencils, oilboard stencils, pre-sketched art, cutting templates, paint-by-number art, and more. Whether you are engraving, crafting, or having a paint-and-sip party, our designs can be a real game changer for your projects!
ABOUT OUR STENCILS
Plastic stencils are laser cut on either 10 mil or 14 mil clear mylar. This material is very durable, allowing you to reuse them repeatedly on different surfaces. Oilboard stencils are made with high-quality paper board treated with special oils to resist ink bleed-through. This can be used several times as well, but may not last as long as mylar (especially if using paint to stencil instead of pencil or marker).
Stencils are not for commercial resale! You are not permitted to re-sell our stencils or sell pre-sketched products with them. Using stencils for personal paint parties is allowed, however. Selling artwork that you have personally painted using the stencil design is permitted. We ship all our stencils free within the United States via first-class mail. We do not currently ship outside of the United States, sorry.
ABOUT TEMPLATES, TERMS, AND HOW TO USE THEM
Print-ready templates are great for last-minute paint parties, coloring pages, and individual projects. You can download them immediately after purchase. Templates can be used for personal paint parties, but not for commercial gain unless a commercial license is attached to the download. In that case, please read below about “Terms of use on digital downloads”.
Templates are very simple to use. You can simply download, print and paint! If you need to transfer the image to a canvas or another surface, not a problem! First, print to the size needed. Then, use a sheet of carbon copy paper to easily trace to your new surface. Easy peasy!
ABOUT SVG AND LICENSE PROVIDED
SVGs can be downloaded immediately after purchase. You will not get a physical item. Digital files are non-refundable. The files you receive will not have watermarks on them. A limited commercial use license will be issued upon purchase. Purchasing the file does not give you the rights to sell, share or distribute the file in any way. After purchase, you will have access to use the clipart in the file for limited commercial purposes. Your usage license will expire one year after purchase. You will need to renew your license each year to continue using the file.
REGULATIONS FOR LIMITED COMMERCIAL USE
Please review our regulations if you intend to use the files commercially (to make something to sell). Because these are computer downloads, NO REFUNDS WILL BE GIVEN. Contact us if you have any inquiries or issues with a file you receive. We are happy to assist a fellow artist at any time.
