For my son's third birthday, we were doing a carnival theme, so I designed an interactive invitation with a fortune teller and a crystal ball that I intended to be a DIY scratch off. Using a combination of clear adhesive laminate cut to size and this silver paint mixed with a bit of dish soap, the scratch off worked flawlessly. See the attached invitation for both a sample of the silver paint color as well as the effectiveness of the scratch off. The color was metallic and pretty and just what I wanted. The only reason I docked as star for this listing is because I have seen it in stores for less money, which is slightly disappointing.
