How to use

Hold a card on a flat surface or in your hand and use a pointed but not sharp tool—such as a wooden stylus, a coin edge, or the included scratch tool if provided—to gently remove the scratch-off coating in desired areas. Work from the center outward or follow the printed lines to reveal underlying colors and patterns. Avoid excessive pressure to prevent tearing the card base. After completing a card, allow any loose particles to be brushed away and store the remaining cards flat to protect their scratch surfaces.

Usage recommendations

Use on a clean, stable surface and keep away from moisture and direct sunlight to preserve the scratch-off coating. Supervise children during use if small tools or flakes are present. Combine with colored backgrounds or framing for display, or include in lesson plans and group workshops for structured creative sessions.
