Here is my take on the May Simple Recipe at UK Scrappers (see link on the right) - thank you to www.3jollyscrappers.co.uk for this one.
The colour palette was red, turquoise and marigold yellow with neutrals and the challenge was to

  • Use two or three different alphabets
  • Use stamps on your project and try using them in a new way
  • Use inkpads and try out inking edges or masking with them
Apart from the Kraft background, this page used only leftovers and recycled bits, so I can't tell you what the patterned papers were. Mini ink stamps were used direct to page, with a magic mesh mask, on the assorted alphas, around all bare edges and all over my hands! I had fun remembering how to make a windmill and borrowed a Stampin' Up! stamp to make the shells ... thanks Trina! Oh and Trina made the blue flower as well - but I did the rest myself honest!
