Christmas Clip Art for Autograph book

[Perditamarie]

I am looking to make a simple Christmas autograph book by downloading Christmas clip art onto card stock and then having it bound into a book.

The problem is, I can't seem to find too much Christmas themed clip art. I have already combed the excellent sites in the Creative DISign board sticky.

Any ideas for a Christmas themed book, sources for Disney clip art or other clever ideas for a Christmas autograph book that a novice can whip up??

Thanks in advance....

Have you googled for clipart? I have found alot as I am making my dauughter's autograph book. Also where are you getting your card stock bound into a book? That is exactly what I wanted to do. I have the idea and made up the cover that I want but just want a nice book.

I did "the google", but didn't find as much as I was hoping. I didn't find any more/better sites than were already listed on Baloo's list of tips. I do have enough for a small book and will just add a lot of blank pages. This way I won't feel too bad if I cut it up and scrap book it (when I have a lot of time on my hands in about 20 years or so!). You can get them bound at Fedex/Kinkos for around $5...and that includes a lot of pages as well as a plastic front and back cover...the front cover can even be clear so your design can be seen, yet protected. Have fun making yours!!

One more thing. I just checked Kinkos website. Do you do all this online and then pick up at store or do I print all my pages and take it to them to bind it for me? I see they have the option of doing it online. Thanks

Thank you for the links

I brought mine to the store -- I cut them myself and Kinko's trimmed them for me. I was afraid if I emailed, the spacing and dimensions would get out of whack (like part of an image getting cut off, etc because I eyeballed the spacing). There are a couple of binding choices as well, so a trip to the store was helpful to me.

BTW, I did a spiral binding, so the pages could be turned completely over. That worked pretty well for the most part, but sometimes the spiral binding (think corkscrew-like coil) would unscrew from one end and I would have to wind it back through the holes to keep the length of the book on the binding, if that makes any sense.
