HP Creative Scrapbook Assistant - User's Guide

You can also import your own clip art, save clip art as a

new image, frame, background, or shape, or save other

items as new clip art. When compared with images, clip art

items are generally smaller in le size.

Working with Backgrounds

A background is an image that instantly lls the entire

workspace when you select it.

• To place a background in your workspace, click the

Backgrounds tab to view the thumbnails and then click

or drag the one you want.

You can move, resize, and rotate backgrounds, change

their color to black and white or sepia, and change their

transparency. You can also import your own backgrounds,

save a background as a new image, clip art, or frame,

or save other items as new backgrounds. Placing a back-

ground inside a shape allows you to resize and move it

around so that, in effect, you are cropping the background.

And because you can apply a frame to a shape, you can

easily put a border around the background of your page.
