Because there are so many Internet-savvy scrapbooking supply designers today, you can find plenty of free scrapbook graphics online. That means all you need to know is how to do an Internet search and download files and you can find all the materials you need to create professional-looking scrapbooks. That caused famous artist Mary Englebreit to remark recently that the Internet is a great source of scrapbook supplies that will yield almost anything you might need. And she should know about quality images; products with her designs sell like mad!
Here are some of the types of free scrapbooking graphics available:
Vintage
There seems to be an upsurge in the number of people looking for.vintage scrapbook papers and embellishments. That could be because antique art is so timeless and creates such classy results. Antique greeting cards make great vintage scrapbook embellishments, as does antique clip art. And when you can find digital scrapbooking papers made from compilations of vintage images, you’ll experience digital meeting traditional in a beautiful and useful way. Vintage art also covers a range of subjects, including images as diverse as vintage travel posters, antique flower baskets, Victorian fashion illustrations, magic show posters and old sailing ships. So whatever the topic of your scrapbook, you can probably find vintage art to match.
Holidays
The holidays just naturally invite scrapbooking, since those are the times we gather with friends and family to create special memories. And it’s not just the “showier” holidays, such as Christmas, Easter, Valentine’s Day and Halloween that inspire scrapbooks; it’s the minor holidays too. You can find lots of patriotic scrapbooking papers and embellishments on the Web for holidays such as Veterans Day, Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Flag Day. There are also many images out there for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Earth Day and any other holiday you can think of; even the off-beat and downright bizarre ones.
Butterflies and Flowers
I’ve definitely noticed that scrapbookers love flowers, and who can blame them? They work for nearly any occasion. Butterflies, too, have a large audience, because they bring to mind so many things we love: freedom, summertime and other happy things. Flowers and butterflies are also diverse, because an abundance of them can be found as both illustrations and photos, and in modern and vintage styles. You can even find floral scrapbook papers that have many mix-and-match designs available in the same collections.
Wedding Images
Scrapbooks and weddings are a natural combination, because it’s always been a tradition to have a wedding photo album. But if you can make it a wedding scrapbook instead, you can will have an even more creative way to preserve your precious memories. There are many good wedding scrapbook papers on the Web that will allow you to create a lasting memento for little or no cost. And if you can’t find any specifically for weddings, flower scrapbook images will often do just as well.
Baby
As is the case with wedding ceremonies, the birth and growth years of a little one often generate a lot of photos. And what scrapbooker wouldn’t want to pass down a distinctive baby scrapbook to her child as he or she gets older? Fortunately, you can find a huge selection of scrapbook designs for babies. If you haven’t looked at baby images for a while, though, you might find the color schemes a little surprising these days. Chocolate brown, burnt orange and red are popular, as are various shades of green. Of course, you can still find lots of blue and pink, but these days there are many bold color choices too.
So the next time you need scrapbook designs, check online. You might be pleasantly surprised at the free images you’ll find.
