Start by making your templates, remember they have to be seven times bigger than the size you want your finished hair clip.
You'll need a big cat head, a slightly smaller cat head, an eye and a whisker.
You can use my template by downloading the PDF.
Cut these out.

Draw around your big cat head, whisker and eye templates on to black shrink plastic.
