Your new scratch paper contains brilliant contrasting backgrounds under the opaque surface. Simply use the included stylus scratchers to scratch it away to reveal what’s underneath.
Draw your own unique art, write messages, or trace the enclosed stencils.
INSTRUCTIONS
Open the package and select which scratch paper to use for your artistic creation.
Hold a stylus scratcher in your hand the same way you would hold a pencil or pen to write, with the sharp tip down.
Use the stylus to scratch the surface of the paper gently, but firmly enough that your movement removes the top layer.
TIP: Try different angles of the scratch stylus and applying different amounts of pressure to get different style of scratch lines.
TIP: If the tip of your stylus gets dull, you can use a sharpener or sandpaper to sharpen it.
Occasionally tap the paper vertically to remove any residue left by your scratches. Alternatively, use a tissue paper to wipe away the excess residue. Doing this keeps your work smudge-free and keeps your hands and work area clean.
Scratch away! Reveal the background under the opaque layer with every stroke of your stylus!
STENCILS
Your Purple Ladybug® Scratchy Scratch Paper kit may contain stencils to help reveal your creative masterpieces, but have you thought of making your own?
An old cereal box, index cards, and cardstock are all the perfect thickness.
Just be careful tracing and cutting it. This can be useful if you like to draw the same shape many times over!
Or use cans, jars, cups, anything that you can trace around to create fun shapes!
MORE IDEAS
We included the stylus for drawing but consider using other tools to scratch away the surface. A fork, chop sticks, a stick, and a small rock all make good tools.
Give it a whirl! (Just don’t use anything too sharp that will rip the paper!)
Scratch Paper is just paper, so you can cut it using scissors and create fun shapes with it as part of your design.
