It's day 3 of our Scrapbook series! You can find all of the posts here. Today is all about where to find the backgrounds, the embellishments, clip art, everything that gives your page personality and helps tell your story. These are also perfect for making printables!
I use this software and it comes with some really great graphics and backgrounds. However I love to have a variety and some times I need something specific. I keep a folder on my desktop with all of my digital scrapbooking downloads and clip art. (*please note in many cases you will have to unzip the file...not sure what I'm talking about let me know.) I can use them in my program or you can use them with PicMonkey or whatever program you want to create your page with.
So here are some of my very favorite sites when I'm looking for freebies!
(Click on the images and it will take you to the source.)
Sweet Shoppe Designs has a section of the cutest free kits. I use them ALL THE TIME!!! The rest of their store is worth checking out too.
Ginger Scraps has a ton of freebies but you do have to sign up for their forum. Its easy and I think worth it.
Since the freebies are hidden until you sign up here are some of my favorites in their store. They have really good prices and the kits are so cute!
Free Pretty Things For You is another great blog. She has a ton of free backgrounds and clip art
We Lived Happily Ever After has free hand drawn graphics. I love the rustic look.
and I just found this website and I'm so excited about it Quality DigiScrap Freebies. They find the cutest, free kits for you.
Just Peachy Designs is a great resource for paper. She has tons for free!
Now that I've shared my favorite free sites I wanted to add Etsy in this list. Obviously not free but you can find some of the best stuff. It is a great place to look if you are searching for something specific. I don't mind spending a little if its for something I'm going to use a lot or really want. There are so many cute options prices vary.
Look up digital paper, digital scrapbook kits, clip art, etc. Here are some of my favorite finds.
You can always google or search pinterest just make sure when you are searching there is a .png download option for any clip art/embellishments. (.jpeg works too but you don't have the transparent backgroud. It can make placement a little tricky). .jpeg works great for backgrounds and papers. You can use these in any program. I've found some really cute free downloads but have been sad when I realize they are only for photoshop/adobe programs (these are .ai or vector files).
What are some of your favorite websites for scrapbook and clip art?
You can follow my Fonts and Downloads pinterest board for more great finds.
