Instructions:

Pop out the round top of the box. Trace around it with a pencil on scratch art board. Cut out the circle inside the line so it will fit inside the top. Print pattern for fancy capital letters. Select the letter to use and center it inside the circle. Trace around the outline of the letter using the stylus, pressing hard so it makes an indent in the scratch board beneath. Remove the pattern and trace around the imprint with the stylus, scratching away the black. Scratch out the black all around the letter, leaving the letter black and revealing the color for the rest of the circle.

Paint top frame of box black. Paint the box bottom black. Let dry.

Cut a 1" x 11" strip of scratch art to fit around the box bottom. Using the stylus, outline a repeating pattern such as the circles we used. Scratch away the background. You can also choose to scratch a personalized message to your friend around the outside.

Glue the strip around the box, lining up the bottoms. Hold with clothespins until dry.
