page border and clip art

[alfaista]

i have read Suzanne's article on creating a new border, but i am stuck. i
have a piece of clip art, and have it sort of "bannered" across the header.
now what? how do i get a border ALL AROUND the page using this? or is that
possible?

thanks!!

If it's just a piece of a border, you'll need to rotate it in order to
insert it (possibly more than once) on the sides, and then you'll also have
to insert it at the bottom. All pieces will be anchored to the header and
set Behind Text. Whether it will look right rotated or not depends on the
design of the graphic.

oh, so i sort of make a border all in the header? rotate and do the bottom
part all within the header, then stretch it?
i am just using something that is a piece of a border, so it is just a small
section that it seems i have to copy over and over to make a border. not
quite like your coffee cup, more like the last clip you on the first part of
your page.

is there a way i can send what i have to this group? i don't see an "attach"
or "upload" option.

Yes, the pieces all have to be inserted in the header, then dragged where
they belong.

Glad you got it working. It's way more trouble than it's worth, though!
