Can I use Envato Elements items after my subscription ends?
Depends
Yes for projects you finished while subscribed. No for new or unfinished projects, and you must uninstall fonts.
Envato's licence ties each item to an End Product you complete while subscribed. Once it's complete, the licence for that project is perpetual. If the project isn't finished when you cancel, the licence ends. Fonts must be uninstalled, but logos and designs you made with them keep their commercial licence.

What the licence says
Completed projects are perpetual
“Once the Item has been incorporated into a completed End Product during an active subscription term, the license becomes perpetual, which means that it continues for the life of the End Product, even after your subscription ends.”
“If you cancel your subscription and have not completed your End Product, the license for the Item is terminated and you have no further rights to use the Item.”
“a. You can't use an Item to create an End Product after your Envato Elements subscription ends. If you've installed an Item (such as a Font or Add-on) on your device, you must uninstall the Item once your subscription ends.”
“i. You can use an Item to create an End Product for yourself or for a client of yours. If you use an Item to create an End Product for a client, then you can transfer the final End Product to your client as long as you have followed the requirements in sections 5 and 6 and your subscription remains active.”
Finish and deliver client projects before letting a subscription lapse: Envato's client clause says you can transfer the End Product 'as long as ... your subscription remains active'.
Reusing an item in a new project, even for the same client, needs a new licence, which needs an active subscription.
Keep a record of which items went into which project, in case a licence is ever questioned.
FAQ
Do I have to take down my website if I cancel Envato Elements?
Not for a website you completed while subscribed: Envato says the licence for a completed End Product continues for its life.
Can I keep using Envato fonts after cancelling?
You must uninstall them. Designs and logos you already made with them keep their commercial licence.
