Take screenshot from WPF

Is it possible to take screenshot of the single element on WPF form? I need to take screenshot of a "border" tool and its child.

considering source to be the element that you want to take a screenshot. This is the code that I have which saves it to the clipboard.

        RenderTargetBitmap bmp = new RenderTargetBitmap((int)source.ActualWidth, (int)source.ActualHeight, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Pbgra32);
        bmp.Render(source);
        Clipboard.SetImage(bmp);

You can use RenderTargetBitmap to render visuals, if you search for it on SO there should be some questions that help if the reference is not enough.

Further this external article might help.
