FAQ | MIMI BONDI SECRET STASH

What is Mimi Bondi’s Secret Stash all about?

Sharing my art to inspire others to create is EVERYTHING to me. That’s why I teach, make free YouTube tutorials, share my art process on social media (maybe a bit too much!), publish books, and have a cool Facebook group to stay connected.

I believe my purpose on Earth is to create and help YOU create. So, I’ve taken a step further with Mimi Bondi’s Secret Stash.

I transformed a part of my website into a platform where you can download and use artworks in your own art. Yep, it’s all about creating more art! But you can also swing by just to get inspired 😉

Wondering how I create the pieces in the Secret Stash Store? Well, I use:

My own handpainted art journal pages, gel prints, etc., that I scan and clean up.
My digital art crafted in Procreate and Photoshop.
A mix of my digital and handpainted art.
Images I create (sometimes in parts, sometimes in full) with various AI platforms.
And sometimes, it’s a combo of all the above!!

Remember, the more art we make, the better we and the world become. Keep creating!

Mimi

INSTRUCTIONS:

When purchasing digital files as a guest, it’s essential to promptly download them from your order confirmation page as this will NOT be possible later so I highly recommend creating an account!

For those with an account (which can be created during the checkout process), ensure you are logged in before finalizing your purchase. This gives you the option of downloading the files up to three times within a six-month period. Detailed information on the expiry date and remaining download count for each purchased file will be visible in your account.

To get your hands on my delicious files, simply follow these steps:

Add the desired product to your cart – whether digital or physical.
Once the payment is processed, any download link will automatically appear in three locations:
- On your “order received page” immediately after payment.
- In your order confirmation email.
- In the ‘Downloads’ section of your account if you were logged in before checking out.

Click the link, open the file, and utilise the ‘print’ or ‘save’ options in the top right of your browser. Any physical products in your order will be shipped as per the standard procedure.

A crucial point to note: Files will not be sent via email; instead, it is imperative to utilize the provided link for printing or saving. Should any technical issues arise or if you have questions, I am readily available to help you!

I wish you a seamless experience in downloading and fostering creativity 🙂

WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH THE FILES?

I want to emphasize that the artist (that’s me!) maintains the copyright on the artwork at all times. Feel free to save and print the file for your PERSONAL USE ONLY, with the purpose of creating new art.

However, it’s important to note that you do not have permission to print them for anyone but yourself or email the files to others, nor should you upload them anywhere – that’s a big no-no!

Using the artwork ‘as is’ for print on demand products or any commercial purposes is not allowed. But here’s the good news – you can use the art you create with it to sell those products. If there’s any uncertainty or if you plan to sell something made with one of my files, it’s always a good idea to contact me first for confirmation.

As a general rule, if what you’ve created looks significantly different from the original artwork , you’re good to go.

I reserve the right to cancel access to any purchased file if suspicious activity is suspected, so let’s keep things above board. Unfortunately, there are no refunds or exchanges on digital files.

If you’re ever unsure about whether your artwork is okay to sell, just shoot me an email first to check. I’m here to help – I promise I don’t bite 🙂
