Found object: pastel box paper

This piece of paper fluttered out when I opened up my box of pastels to draw a quick sketch for Monday’s post on drawing with straight lines. It’s just a bit of tracing paper that’s there to prevent the lid of the box getting marked, I assume, but I really like the effect of all the different colours.
However, I want your advice. How would you use this? In a collage, as the background for a drawing, as a Photoshop brush?

I would use it as a background for a cityscape. The forms and faint marks remind me of the new buildings, cranes and the building constructions around the City of London.
I like your thinking. I’d also love to see how you’d do it. I’m leaning towards road signs or trees at the moment :)
:) Makes me think of popsicles! Homemade ones that we can vary the flavours and colours!
Ooh, that’d look great.
