Animals

Four Panel Handkerchief

 
If the original download is "High Resolution" (such as this one 3000 x 2739)

 you can use parts of the larger image to create individual images like the ones below.

 

Using the Cloning / Stamp Tool you can isolate part of an image and create single smaller images like the two Giraffes below. Using the clone tool the surrounding animals have been removed so that the giraffes are isolated in the same color background.

Even though the giraffes are an enlarged area of a very small portion of the original image;

they can still print small images of about 2.5"x 3". 

This size can be used for printing on page corners or used to 

make small cards that can be used as Ephemera or put in Junk Journals etc.
