Coloring templates in Word 2007: St. Patrick's Day

Here are four new free coloring sheets for Word 2007 that will charm, if perhaps not in pocket, a bit of green and gold definitely before your eyes.  These are St. Patrick's Day templates and each image links to its respective free download: Leprechaun, Shamrock, Pot o'gold: Green background, and Pot o'gold: Orange background.

These templates support St. Patrick's Day entertainment and education, offering coloring opportunities for children. All coloring sheets include personalization (name, age, and grade) for display on bulletin boards. And perhaps, a nice prize awaits someone at the end of the rainbow, by way of a coloring contest. (Follow this link for more coloring and activity pages).

Because these are templates, they offer Word 2007 users a starting point for further editing and tweaking. The files arrange and layer art and shapes. You can insert text, edit line art, and even add additional images such as an association or business logo (for those who are offering these as activities for restless, visiting younger ones).   

These capabilities are made possible via Word 2007's newer talents to edit and selectively place vector illustrations. Ideas are developing here for a tutorial and/or a future blog entry that will delve into this subject using Word 2007 and Office Online tools such as the free Clip Art library.  Leave us a comment if this sounds interesting, and you would love to hear more.
