Crafty Ideas For Using Christmas Clipart

What is clipart? Its pictures and symbols that are pre-made for you to use on all kinds of projects.

Where do you find clipart? Free clipart can be found online by using a search engine. When you find a site that you like, you can copy a picture from the site (make sure the site says it’s ok). Then you right click the image with your computer mouse and save the image to your computer. Now that clipart is available for you to print and use.

Clipart is also available in real books where you use real scissors to cut the images out and paste them to whatever you like. Clipart books can be found at book stores and art stores. There are a lot of really nice computer programs that you can install which contain hundreds to thousands of images.

Christmas clipart can be used for countless projects…

• Use downloaded images to make your own stationery and invitations.

• Make own your Christmas cards by gluing clip art to plain cards from the craft or office supply store.

• If you are hosting Christmas dinner, make your place cards using cool borders and pictures. Why not personalize them while you’re at it.

• Print Christmas clipart on thin paper and decoupage the images onto plain ornaments.

• When making your memory books of the holidays, use clip art printed on acid free paper to embellish your keepsakes.
