Here you will find snowflake clipart in a dozen designs, from an icy blue crystal and a lacy outline to a cluster of falling flakes and a long snowflake border. Each flake is a transparent PNG with no background, so it floats over navy, white or a photo of a winter window.
Each flake has a Download PNG button for saving and a Copy button that lands it on your card, slide or worksheet in one step. White flakes can be hard to see on a white screen, so switch the background preview to chalkboard or a dark color to check the details. Pair these with our winter clipart of sleds and mittens, or print a full scene from the winter coloring pages.

Snowflake Lessons and Crafts by Grade
- Pre-K and kindergarten: Count six arms on the simple outline, then match the smiling falling flakes to name cards.
- Grades 1 and 2: Fold paper and cut a flake, then compare it to the clipart. Color the border garland for a class winter board.
- Grades 3 to 5: Use the realistic crystal to explain that real snowflakes almost always have six sides because of how water molecules link up as they freeze.
- Middle school and up: The lacy outline makes a relaxing coloring page, and the silhouette cuts well for vinyl and window art.

Making White Snowflakes Show Up
A white or very pale flake disappears on white paper and on a white slide. Place it on a dark or bright color instead: navy, purple, teal or the chalkboard preview all make it pop. Printing on white paper? Choose the blue, purple or retro designs, or color the outlines with blue markers.
The 1000 pixel square files hold their detail up to around 3 inches when your printer runs at 300 dpi. For window art or a big board, enlarge the black and white silhouette, since its solid shape keeps clean edges. If you want frames of other kinds, visit our border and frame clipart.

Questions people ask
May I print these snowflakes for my class without paying?
Go ahead: classroom sets, family crafts and any snowy project that is not sold are all welcome, and a credit to us is optional. The flakes may not be resold as files or folded into a clipart pack. If you want to put one on a product for sale, reach out on our Contact page first.
Is there a snowflake PNG transparent file?
Every snowflake here downloads as a transparent PNG. Only the flake shows when you paste it, so a navy or photo background stays visible around the arms.
Does the snowflake clipart have no background?
Right, there is no white box behind any flake. If a box appears after pasting into a word processor, switch the image layout option to in front of text and the page will show through.
Where are the snowflakes clipart black and white?
Look under the simple snowflake heading for a beginner outline, a lacy outline and a solid silhouette, and the border section adds a garland outline. All four print in black ink only.
Which simple snowflake clipart is best for young kids?
The simple outline with six straight arms has big open spaces and thick lines. It is easy to trace, color and count for ages 3 to 6.
How do I make a snowflake border clipart for a bulletin board?
Print the blue border strip or the garland outline several times and tape them end to end around the board. For the sides, rotate the strips so they run up and down.
