This FREE Canva Tool Makes GORGEOUS AI Clipart 😍 (Full Tutorial)

I found a Christmas clip art listing that's made over 2000 in revenue in its first month alone. And this one 490 plus total sales in one month with over 400 favorites. There's another listing which is only two months old, has already racked up over 90 monthly sales and over 400 favorites as well. And here's another listing that has achieved best seller status And lastly, here's another one that has already made it to best seller status as well. I show you all of this to prove that you can be a new seller and still make bank fairly quickly. And anyone telling you that Etsy is oversaturated just isn't looking in the right places. So going back to this month old listing, when using Etsy research tool ever be link in the description, we can see that they've racked up over $2,100 in revenue from just this past month And before you click away thinking, well, I can't draw, fear not because these sellers are using the same tools we all have access to, ChatGPT and Canva AI. So in today's tutorial, I'm going to show you exactly how to create your own high quality Christmas clip art using ChatGPT to ideate and write those prompts in Canva's magic media tool to generate the art itself. No drawing skills required. By the end of this video, you'll be well on your way to creating your very own set of original designs ready to upload and sell on Etsy or wherever else you sell online. And I'll tell you the listing mistakes that most beginners make that kill their sales. Because honestly, I know how it feels to put hours into designing something, listing it on Etsy, and hearing crickets. Remembering my own first few uploads, I had beautiful designs, but zero traffic because of this one thing. And that's actually why I started learning the Not just how to make them look good, but how to make them sell. And for those of you who are new here, hi, I'm Roxy, a 40 something wife and mother of three. I've made multiple six figures selling online on platforms such as Etsy, Amazon KDP, Standstall and my own website. And I'm here to teach aspiring digital product creators how to build passive income using AI and Canva. My goal is to help you skip all the frustrating trial and error that I went through and actually start seeing consistent sales faster. So if you've ever felt stuck wondering how your listings aren't performing, this part is going to make everything click. Let's dive in. So let's talk about why Christmas clip art sells so well. It's seasonal but reliable. Every October through January, searches for Christmas clip art goes through the roof. People are looking for festive graphics, for planners, stickers, greeting cards, t-shirt designs, sublimation products, and even social media graphics. And what's more is that Christmas clip art is also a lower barrier to entry, but high perceived value. Unlike print on demand or complex templates, clip art is super beginner friendly, easy to scale. One bundle can be passive income for years. No inventory, no shipping, no customer service headaches. And because you can make dozens of designs in one sitting, it becomes one of the most efficient passive income streams and digital products to build. All because you don't need Photoshop, Illustrator, or any real art skills. Just chat GPT for the prompts and Canva for the image generation. Allow me to show you exactly how step by step. So first things first, here we are over in Canva. We are going to start by clicking at custom size to create our new design. We are going to make sure there isn't pixel units and then we're going to type in 3000 by 3000. So that's width and height. Now we are going to click create new design. So we choose that size because it looks great for Etsy thumbnails and it also makes sure that our images are of high quality and really crisp format. It also then allows it to be easier to manipulate and upscale when we need to. So here's the thing, instead of guessing prompts, we are going to let chat GPT help us to craft detailed and conversion focus prompts that we can then use to create our clip art. So here we are in chat GPT and we're just going to start a conversation and see where we go with that. So I'm going to first give it some context. I'm going to say I am an Etsy clip art seller and I need help crafting prompts that I can create beautiful clip art in an AI image generator such as Canva AI. I just do that because I just always like to give chat GPT some context as to what and why it is I'm asking it to do what it wants, what I want it to do. So I've said that and I'm going to just go generate. Let's say let's go with about five prompts to start off with just so that we can see if chat GPT is on the right lines for us. So I'm going to say five Christmas themed clip art prompts. So I would want to give chat GPT some direction as to the type of style of clip art that we're looking for. So when I was doing my research, when we come back to this really amazing seller, we can see that it is kind of embodying a particular style. It's kind of quite quirky, a bit hand drawn and quite fun, comical, whimsical in nature. So this is a really great starting point to look at those bestsellers, especially those ones that have been that have been listed quite recently and just have a look at what's working for them. So bearing that in mind, I'm going to come back over to chat GPT. I'm going to say generate five Christmas themed clip art prompts of a fun and whimsical nature. And I might even say hand drawn nature. I also want to give it some direction as to maybe the types of scenes, the types of props and characters that we would like to include. So I'm just going to say include diverse characters, holiday scenes and lots of festive themes. So that's the bare bones of our prompt there. But one thing, the most important part of this particular prompt is that because we are looking for it to be clip art, we need it. We need the background to be white. So what we'll do is we will add this really important section, which is please ensure that you include reference to isolate each clip art image against a white background. So that just means that it's going to create that clip art prompt. And then when we put it into Canva, it's going to ensure that that background is white, which then means we can then remove the background a lot more easier and manipulate it a lot more easier for whatever it is that we need to use it for. So now we've got our prompt, we've kind of given it some context, we've given it some ideas of what we're kind of looking for. So what we then just do is let it do its thing. Okay, so it says here are five Christmas themed clip art prompts written for AI generators like Canva AI, ideal for creating cohesive hand-drawn festive sets that feel fun, whimsical and sellable as digital clip art packs. So I can definitely see it's got on the context, it's got on the background, why I'm looking to create what it is that I want to create. And then it's gone ahead and given us these prompts. So the first one is Christmas baking fun, a playful hand-drawn clip art collection featuring diverse families and kids baking Christmas cookies together. Include rolling pins, gingerbread men, mixing bowls, sprinkles, cookie trays and cheerful expressions. Characters wear festive aprons, Santa hats and cozy sweaters. Use a bright whimsical color palette of red, mint, green, cream and gold and isolate each clip art image against a white background with clean outlines and consistent proportions. That's a really great starting point for us, that's given us a theme for a whole clip art bundle set. The next clip art bundle set we have been given is cozy Christmas morning. So this is a whimsical hand-drawn clip art set of diverse children and adults opening presents near a decorated tree. Include elements such as stockings, gift boxes, mugs of cocoa, fluffy pajamas, slippers and twinkling lights. So I love the fact that it's given us some background there, it's allowing us to visualize what types of clip art we're going to include in our bundle to make it really cohesive for our end buyer. It's given us elements to include, for here this is stockings, gift boxes, mugs of cocoa. For this one, this third idea, winter village festivities, we've got a storybook style clip art collection featuring a snowy village with cozy cottages, lampposts wrapped in garlands, carol singers. So as you can see it's really given us that in-depth detail and insight that we would be looking for in order to then go and make these actual prompts into clip art. So I'm just going to go with the first one, I really like that Christmas baking fun angle, so I am now going to say I really like the first idea, Christmas baking fun. Please give me five actual prompts to create each clip art, to create five clip art for this bundle. So we're starting with five because I just want to make sure that the prompts that it comes out with, we will check them in Canva, see if they really convert really well and they look good in Canva and then once we've ascertained that then we'll come back and make more. So our first one, family baking scene, a whimsical hand-drawn illustration of a diverse family baking Christmas cookies together. A mother, father and two children laugh as they roll dough, sprinkle flour and decorate gingerbread men on a kitchen counter. Now before I go on, the one thing I would say about this one is it is a scene so it's going to be quite detailed and I don't want something that is as detailed as a full scene, I kind of want just singular images, singular clip art of singular characters and objects and things like that. So in order to get that across I'm actually going to say, this is great but I would like to make my bundle include singular items mainly. Hopefully it gets the gist of what I'm trying to say. So it says perfect, singular clip art items ideal for Etsy because they're more versatile for customers to mix, match and layer in their own designs. Precisely, that's exactly what I'm looking for. So here are five refined AI prompts. So we've got now gingerbread house clip art and then it's gone ahead and given us that prompt. The next one is festive rolling pin, lovely. And we've got Christmas mixing bowl clip art, gingerbread man clip art and Christmas baking ingredients clip art and then it's included that isolate the clip art against the white background that we want as well. So now we've got those really in-depth prompts, we have gone back and forth with ChatGPT to kind of get them the way we want them. Now we are going to do the fun part of creating them in Canva and now we're back over in Canva. We've got our kind of work board here and now what I'm going to do is I'm going to go over to Magic Media and then this is the section that contains the Canva AI tool that will help us to create these clip art. So before we get into it, let me just tell you that this Canva AI, the image generator, it is free for everyone but if you aren't a paid member then you're only going to get a certain limited number of uses. So as we can see here, is Canva AI free? Canva AI is available with a free account but you can only get a limited number of uses. To unlock more you can upgrade to Canva Pro. Let me tell you that if you are serious about building a digital products business then Canva Pro is the way to go. It is so ridiculously cheap and there are so many functions. I cannot believe the things that they are adding weekly, daily. I can't even keep up with the amazing tools that you can find in Canva. So that is the number one tool that you could use to build and that's the number one tool I've used to build my multiple six-figure business. I have made KDP books in Canva. I have made full products. I have made courses. I have made video courses and edited so much material and so many different things within Canva. It really is that no-brainer investment that will pay you for years to come. So I'm just going to get off my soapbox there and let's get back into it. So for this clip art, I think I'm going to actually choose graphics and then we're going to copy and paste that prompt there. So as you can see, it's actually cut off some of this prompt. So we'll just go with what we have there. Now we're going to click styles and this is where we can kind of specify if we've got a certain style in mind. So what I'm actually going to do is I'm going to just show you the output of these various different styles and this is just so that you can see the different styles and what they look like and what their output is so that you don't have to waste your credits, especially if you have a free Canva account. So I'm going to just click doodle. We're actually going to go through all of these. So I'm going to click doodle and so that's the doodle style I'm going to have. So now it has given us four different graphics, but as you can see, it definitely embodies that hand-drawn style, but not really what we're looking for at all. But what I could see this working for are listings such as this and this. These sell really well. Hand-drawn clip art and images are just really soaring in popularity and as you can see there, this looks pretty hand-drawn and I could see that we could maybe create a bundle like this that is really honing in on that hand-drawn, very unique kind of aesthetic. And so where this is black and white, we would then just change the coloring and then we could make something similar. So that was the doodle effect there. So now what I'm going to do is I'm going to just go through all these different styles. I'm going to do a run with that same prompt across all these different styles and then I'll come back and show you the end result. Okay, so we're back. I've gone through all the different styles within the graphics portion of this Canva AI Magic Media and we're just going to go through them now. We've used that one prompt from ChatGPT and I'm going to show you all the different styles that you can create. So this first one is no style at all, so it's just the prompt without a style applied. This one is the doodle style and like I said, this might be good for those hand-drawn elements that we've seen that are really popular on Etsy. We have next this line art. So again, it's that black and white style there and I can definitely see that line art feel. This next one is mono nine. I really like the detail of this one. Again, it's that black and white. So if you wanted something that was colored, then this might not work for us. Moving on, we've got an organic and I can definitely see how that is quite organic. It's even a bit abstract, I would say. So definitely it's going to suit someone's certain taste, but it's giving that kind of hand-drawn vibe as well. This one is sketch. I can definitely see the kind of sketch lines and how that would embody a kind of sketch style. This one is really cute. It's sticker style. I love the fact that it's quite vibrant and it's also quite detailed there. Moving on, this is a geometric style. I really love this one as well. I really love all the patterning there. So this would be a really good one to create stickers and things like that. Moving on, we've got hand-drawn. I like the textures that I can see here and it's definitely giving off that hand-drawn vibe. This one here is impasto. I really like the kind of textured paintbrush strokes here and I really like the output of this particular style. I think Canva does this one quite well. Moving on, we've got risograph. I think that's how you say it, let me know. I really like the kind of speckled kind of texture of this. It's really different and you don't see a lot of this style on Etsy, but it is something that I have seen out and about in the world. This one is vintage. I think it's not quite giving much of that vintage vibe, so I probably wouldn't choose this style. Oh, I really like this 3D chrome. This is really different. I can definitely see that 3D element. It's kind of popping out of the screen, so I can definitely catch that 3D style that it has put onto this particular prompt. Moving on, we've got gold chrome. This is going to be really nice if you're going for like a bundle that you kind of want to have more gold tones, that festive gold tone really popping out. This is going to be a really good one to apply to a set of prompts to embody this kind of gold vibe there. Moving on, this is scrapbook. Scrapbooking is a huge hobby. There is lots of money to be made in that particular niche. I could definitely see this being cut out by a scrapbooker and, you know, making a journal or a Christmas themed collage book or memory book. So we've gone through all the different styles that can be applied to graphics. Now what I'm going to quickly do is go over to images and I'm going to do the same thing with another prompt. So we're going to go for the gingerbread man clipart prompt here and then we are going to click images, which we've done, paste that and then if we're looking at the different styles, we've got lots to go through. We've got filmic, high flash, long exposure, neon, moody, minimalist and so on and so forth. So I'm going to pause this video and I will come back and we will quickly go through those styles again. This is just to give you a really easy reference to the different styles of clipart and images that you can make within Canva for free. And so this is going to be a video that you can always come back to if you just want to get some insight as to the best style to apply to your design. I'll see you in a minute. OK, so I'm back. We have used the images section, images function of Magic Media. I've gone through all the different styles and there are about 25. There's almost 30 different styles that you have an option to use when you are creating your clipart. So let's just go through them quickly now. So I definitely think that the images section of Magic Media is going to be way more in line with what we need for our clipart. There's some really great ones that Canva has been able to make. So this is the first set of clipart using the same prompt, this gingerbread man prompt. And this is when there's no style applied. So as you can see, you can see that it is definitely adhered to the prompt there. Smiling hand-drawn gingerbread man cookie with white icing details, red buttons and a green bow tie. You can see that in those clipart there. And then add a soft shadow beneath the subtle depth. We can see that shadow is there as well. And then a wonderful watercolour and ink illustration style with it isolated against the white background. All of those things we can see embodied within this output from Canva AI. Now for something like this, before we go on to the rest of the styles, what you would then do with this in order to get it ready to bundle up into an Etsy for your Etsy store or wherever you sell online is you would first want to remove the background. So that is, I believe, a paid option within Canva. Like I said, get Canva Pro. It is really going to just open up a world of options for you. But you would then just click BG remover at the top and then it's going to assess that image for you and remove the background. We're just going to do that for both. And then I'm going to show you how you would then tell whether that background has been fully removed. So now it's removed both. Now I'm just going to actually colour this white background here. So I'm just going to colour it. And then what you can then see is that the background, which was initially white, but in a white box has now been removed from both of them. And so that then what you would do with these different images is you would then upscale them to make sure that their resolution is really high. There are lots of free upscalers that you can find on Google. Just Google them. If you want, I can compile a list of different upscalers that are decent. But Canva also has an upscaling option within there as well. I personally use an amazing tool called Gigapixel. I will also leave the link in the description below. But you definitely want to upscale these in order to ensure that the end result is really high quality for your user. But as you can see, this is what we've been able to create really easily within Canva AI. Now moving on to the other style. So this is the filmic style. I'm going to zoom in a bit. So this style is filmic. I don't really know what that means, but super cute anyway. We can see it's given us some options that are really good. You actually get four options per prompt that you create. And so from there, it just gives that freedom to be able to choose one that you really feel aligns or go back and change the prompt if you need to. This next style is high flash. I don't know what that would mean, but I really like the way that it's really, this is really vibrant, really colourful design there. Moving on, we have long exposure and then this one, minimalist. I quite like this. I think that this would be really good, maybe not for clip art, but for because it looks quite realistic. It looks like these are actual cookies and not just an illustration of a cookie. So maybe an idea for that would be if maybe you have a baking blog or a website and you want to show some images that look really realistic, you could then maybe create them in Canva and use this minimalist style within the images of Magic Media and create that for your blog or whatever, wherever you're selling online. Moving on, we've got a moody star. I definitely get that from this. It's quite dark and it's kind of got that mottled dark texture there. So yeah, definitely moody there. Moving on, we've got neon. I'm not sure this quite embodies that neon. Maybe it's due to the prompt and maybe it's going to only apply to certain prompts and you've got to be very specific about what it is that you're looking for. Moving on, we have photo. So photo, I would expect to be a bit more realistic. So I would expect photo to apply to this style, but this style is minimalist and this style is photo. But either way, really nice images there. Moving on, we've got soft focus. I can definitely feel that kind of softer, more kind of blurred style there and it is definitely very soft, soft lens there. This one is vibrant, again, very vibrant, very fun, very quite whimsical as well. So this one is 3D and I would say it's giving off kind of stop frame animation, kind of Wallace and Gromit vibes, if you know what Wallace and Gromit is. Yeah, and even if any of you are Shrek fans, then that might remind you a bit of a Gingerbread character in those Shrek films. Moving on, we've got 3D model. Again, I really like this. I really like this style. It may not be good for a clip art bundle, but it's going to definitely be good for different kind of use cases. Moving on, we've got anime. I can definitely see that anime kind of vibe coming through there. I guess it's a bit difficult to apply an anime vibe to Gingerbread but again, it's done a really good job of that. This one is concept art. I'm not quite sure. It looks, I guess you could say it looks quite abstract. Not really my style, but again, it's good for you to reference these different styles that Canva can create for you. Moving on, we've got dreamy, definitely getting dreamy vibes there. It could be a bit more vibrant, so I would move on from that for this particular bundle if I was going to be creating it. This one is gradient. Again, quite an interesting style here. Maybe not good for a clip art, but it's going to be definitely just another good option if you're creating other types of digital products and digital content. Moving on, we've got mid-century. I'm not entirely sure what mid-century would look like. If you do know and if this looks similar to what you would expect, then let me know in the comments. Moving on, we've got quite playful. I was going to say playful. This is pretty playful, quite fun set of images here. And this is psychedelic. I can definitely get those psychedelic vibes there, all these different lines that are kind of overlapping on each other. So it's done a really good job of applying that to this prompt, I think. Moving on, we've got retro wave. I'm not entirely sure what retro wave would look like, but it's definitely quite distinctive. Moving on, we've got colour pencil. I think these are gorgeous. So cute. This would, my initial thought would be not necessarily for a clip art bundle, but for a maybe a parenting website or a website where you create products for kids. And so something like this that looks like it's been coloured in by a child would go really nicely on a blog or a website like that. I'm just creating various images that look like they've been coloured in by a child. Moving on, we've got imprint. And then this is oil painting. I can definitely see how they have embodied that oil painting within this prompt as well. Oh, I love this one. Again, I'm really liking the ones that maybe you wouldn't want to use for clip art, but you might want to use them for other things. I love the way that Canva has been able to create a just a really realistic cut out image of that prompt. Again, really great for a blog or a crafting website or anything like that. These are going to be great to create images like that for your content. And this one is stained glass. I really like this effect. This could do on an Etsy because it's quite unique as well. And stained glass, anything is really popular. We've got watercolour here and that is our last one. So as you can see, I've gone through 41 different styles within the Canva interface, the Canva Magic Media tool. There are certainly quite a few that we could choose from to create clip art. And so it would be just up to you to look at what's selling really well. I've already shown you quite a few products that are already selling really well. And then just choose ones that align mostly with that style. I've also shown you how easy it is to remove that background and then you would then go up to your image upscaler of choice to then make sure that that end product is really high quality. So in order to package this up for Etsy, once you've upscaled your images, you would want them to be in PNG format and then you would download them into a folder on your desktop. Make sure you've labelled that folder Christmas Clip Art, just to make it obvious for your customer. So for instance, let me just, I'm just going to go to share and I'm going to go to download and I'm going to just download all 41 of these images as a PNG. And then what it's, so we're just going to pretend that I have upscaled all of these, removed the background and done all those things to make it ready to sell online. And now we're just downloading all these images and the way you could present them to your customer is by uploading them to Google Drive for free and then providing access to your customer to that link. So here I am over in Google Drive. I have downloaded those PNG images and they have kind of all been zipped up into its own folder. I would then click new, new folder and then I would just label this folder Christmas Clip Art, click create and then we've got our Christmas Clip Art folder. Just unzip it and then I would then select all of those PNGs. Remember we've already removed the backgrounds and upscaled them and then I would drag and drop them into this folder. And then once they have all been safely uploaded to that folder, you would then click this arrow here, go to share and then we want to click to share. So at the moment it is, the access is restricted. We want to make sure that we can share it with anyone with the link and then it's done that. So then we just copy that link and then in order to be able to provide access to this particular product after someone has purchased it on Etsy or anywhere else, you would then want to provide your end customer with a document that has the link to this very folder. So here I have a download instructions template. Let me know if you'd like it in the comments below. But it says thanks for your purchase, click the button below to access your such and such. So in this instance it'll be Christmas Clip Art and then it says insert digital product name and link here. So I'm So now I would double click this, click this kind of a link button there and paste that link that we just got from the Google Drive, this link. So we've copied that and then we're pasting it there in order so that when someone does receive this download instructions template, they can then click this link and it will take them straight here for them to be able to access their clip art. I hope I've made that clear for you. If you do want access to this template to use for yourself, just let me know in the comments below. But what you would then do is click share, download this as a PDF standard and then over in Etsy you create your listing. For this I would choose digital clip art and image files as the category, click continue. It is a digital file. Who made it? I did. Is it a finished product? Yes it is. When was it made? It was made 2020 to 2025. And how is the digital content created? It is created with help from an AI generator. Yes it is and that is completely fine. Now let's go and click continue. Here you would then add your title but here is where most people fail. They create great art, great bundles, put all that effort into making something really high quality but then write terrible listings. So if you want help with listing visibility then I've created a bonus keyword list that you can use for your title, your tags and your description and also a listing description template for you to use to be able to get the most out of your listings in order to help your listings to be as visible as possible, as quickly as possible. So again let me know if you want that in the comments and I'll get that over to you. So carrying on you would have your title here, you would add your listing photos and mock-ups to really show off your listing and in order to deliver this particular product to your audience you would then add that file that we've then downloaded as a PDF. You just add that there and then so when someone buys they would then get access to this and then they would get the link to their final product. Obviously you would add your description, you'd add your price there, quantity we always want it to be $999, that's the most quantity you can put in Etsy and then you would go ahead and fill in things such as craft type, primary colour and tags as well. Once you've got that all down then you would go ahead and publish your listing and then move on to your next bundle. If you want to scale this as fast as possible then you are not just going to want to create one bundle, you're going to want to create as many as possible within the Christmas niche. So if you've made it this far here are a couple more for you. We've got Christmas Coffee Clipart, we've got Christmas Girl Clipart, Christmas Highland Cow Clipart and even Christmas Town Clipart.
