Hello, my name is Evangelina, and I really like drawing, painting, and colouring. So today I will show you how to make Rainbow scratch paper. You can make this scratch paper with household items. So let’s get started!

Supplies

The Supplies you will need are,

  • Scissors
  • Coloured crayons of your choice (I decided to use the rainbow)
  • Paper
  • Something sharp and pointy like a skewer
  • And you will absolutely need a black crayon

After you have your supplies, get your piece of paper and your scissors. Next, fold the paper in half, keep it folded, and fold it in half again to make the paper into quarters. Then unfold everything you just folded, and cut the paper on the creases with your scissors. You will get four small pieces of paper.

Let’s Add Some Colour!

Now that you have four small papers, they look a little bit bland, don’t they? Well good thing I have the perfect solution! Get the coloured crayons that you chose and start colouring the papers. You can do any design, from a circle like I did, to just random splotches of colour, or even draw a picture and colour it in! It doesn’t really matter what you do, as long as you have fun!

After you’re done colouring, get your black crayon and colour over everything you just drew. Make sure that the black is layered on thickly, and you can’t see the colour. It should look like the paper underneath the coloured one in the picture.

What Is the Skewer For?

It’s a good thing you asked! The skewer is for scraping the black away.

This is a very short step, but who cares! What you have to do now is get your sharp pointy thing, and scrape the black away to make a quote, or to draw a picture, or even both!

This Is a Very Important Step; Have a Good Day!
