You can print black and white clipart photos, or use a photo of your pet. Scale the image to be about 2 inches long and wide, so that it fits on the\u00a02.5\u201d x 3.5\u201d chipboard. Print and cut out the image, then set it aside.<\/p>\n<p><em>Tip: Use an image of an animal that is facing foward and will look good with a party hat!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ssww.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/animal-clipart1.jpg\" alt=\"party animal craft\" width=\"450\" height=\"482\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong>\u00a0If you know you would like to add some fun line designs to your background like in our examples, you can use another piece of chipboard or cardstock paper and cut the edges to use in Step 3.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11504\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ssww.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/cutting-chipboards1.png\" alt=\"party animals craft\" width=\"700\" height=\"320\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: <\/strong>Create an abstract background on your chipboard using acrylic or tempera paint. Overlap colors to add variety.\u00a0Before the paint dries, use your chipboard from Step 2 to slide over the paint and make designs, like rolling hills or an intricate sky. Let the paint dry.<\/p>\n<p><em>Tip: If you layer the paint colors, once you &#8220;comb&#8221; over the chipboard with your jagged edges, the color underneath will show through!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11507\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ssww.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/abstract-background-1024x3321.jpg\" alt=\"parrty animals craft tutorial\" width=\"900\" height=\"292\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4:\u00a0<\/strong>Make the party hat for your animal using colorful paper and a pom pom. Cut a triangle out of colorful paper, then use a mini pom pom or cut a small piece off of a larger one. You can choose to draw on the hat with marker to add more designs. Glue the pom pom to the end of the hat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11509\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ssww.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/party-hat1.jpg\" alt=\"party animals craft\" width=\"1000\" height=\"257\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5:\u00a0<\/strong>Glue the animal clipart or photo you chose from Step 1 onto the chipboard, then glue the party hat on.
