Crayon Cutouts

Combine fabric scraps with Crayola® Crayon designs to create a colorful, textured picture!

1. With Crayola Erasable Colored Pencils, lightly sketch a picture on white paper. You could make a crisp geometric design, show people having fun, or create an abstract work in the style of famous painters such as Elaine de Kooning---whatever you like!

2. Ask an adult for permission to use fabric scraps. Cut the material into pieces that fit into your design with Crayola Scissors. Attach the fabric to your drawing with Crayola School Glue. Dry.

3. Color in the rest of your picture with Crayola Crayons. The smooth, waxy surfaces make an interesting contrast with the textures of the fabric!
