Materials you will need:
Small piece of card, folded in half
Red acrylic paint
Paintbrush Black oil pastel
Wooden stick
1. Paint one side of the card completely in the red acrylic paint. Leave to dry.
2. Cover the painted card with a black oil pastel or wax crayon. Oil pastel gives a smooth finish, but wax crayons would also work.
3. Using the bamboo skewer, gently scratch your message into the card. The oil pastel allows finer details than a paint scratch card - you can add calligraphy-like details to the letters.
