Is Microsoft clip art Royalty free?

I found a clip art that I would like to use in my notecard business, but I
have been unable to determine if I would be breaking a copyright law by using
it, or if I need to have a notation on the back of the card indicating where
the clip art is from. I would like to use it on a set of 15 cards that I
would sell to a friend. Thanks in advance for the help!

See the EULA

If you have a valid license to Office, you can use the clips:

Personal items
Business items, under the following restrictions:

1. The clip should not be used as a part of your logo.
2. If you are selling an item which depicts the clip, the clip cannot be
the primary value of the item ( you cannot sell a clipart collection or sell
a book of just clipart, etc)

Re: Is Microsoft clip art Royalty free?

Thank you Paul,
I should have indicated that I read the EULA, but am still unclear if
section 2 applies to my case or not. For clarification-I would like to use a
palm tree clip art as part of a design on the front of a note card-I would
print 10 and sell them to my friend. Since I'm not just selling the clip art
then I have the right to use it in the note card?
Also, do I need to note on the card where the clip art was from?
If so, what would the wording be?
I have a copyright notice on the back of all my notecards, with my company
name/website, so would it be sufficient to give credit for the clip art at my
website where I would post a copy of the notecard?
Thank you for the help, Jennifer M.

Re: Is Microsoft clip art Royalty free?

In my opinion you should be ok as long as the clip is not be the primary
value of the item. As for a copyright credit I don't think it would be
necessary and you would need to find out who provided the clip to Microsoft
then contact the provider for the copyright credit info. If you still have
questions then you may want to consult a lawyer.

Re: Is Microsoft clip art Royalty free?

I am in the same situation, so thank you so much for your input. Paul - you
wrote that Jennifer would be ok as long as the clip is not the "primary value
of the item." So, in printing a note card that simply has the clip with some
added words underneath...in your opinion, would the clip be the primary value
of the item?
