Steps:

  1. Put layers of different colors on a piece of paper.
  2. Crayon Etching - color different stripes on a piece of paper
     
  3. Rub the whole thing with cotton or a piece of cloth. This is done to spread the colors at least almost evenly on your paper.
  4. Crayon Etching - rub the crayon with a bit of cloth to even out the colors
     
  5. As you can see the colors spread and the surface of the paper is smoother.
  6. Crayon Etching - colors have spread  and the surface is flatter
