You can make your own beautiful paper that has wildflower seeds (or any seed) in it! Use coloured markers to paint a design or message. Give it to someone special to plant in a pot or in the ground. Keep it wet and warm, and it will "recycle" into something far better than old, used paper.

What you will need:

• Scrap paper
• Large bowl
• Large storage bin
• Embroidery hoop
• Tulle
• Wildflower seeds or any seeds that you have
• Towel
• Rolling pin
• Scissors
• Vegetable based inks or food colouring
• Stamps

Here are the steps:

1. First, rip gold coin sized bits of paper and place in a bowl. You will need around 4-6 A4 sized pieces, to make 4 cards. Feel free to mix up your paper colours - light colours are best though.
2. Pour in 1.5L of water and use a hand blender to mix until pulpy.
3. Pour another 2L of water into a large storage bucket and pour in the pulp mixture.
4. Place your tulle in your embroidery hoop.
5. Give the pulp a good mix, then use a ‘scooping’ action to pick up the pulp on the tulle.
6. Place the hoop on the towel.
7. Take off the embroidery hoop so you’re left with the tulle, and sprinkle on plenty of seeds.
8. Place on another piece of tulle and then firmly roll out the paper, removing as much water as you can.
9. Leave to dry for 24 hours.
10. Once dry, cut the card to size. Decorate with stamps and vegetable-based ink (or food colouring) and give to someone you love!
