I think I used some new product, but it may be April instead of May. This was a fun challenge, it let me follow my own inclinations...
I used a couple of non-Rachel elements that were specific to what I needed for my page since I didn't have those things in the products of hers I own.
New Product Use - Pocket Art: Signature Kit 5 I was inspired by the wonderful girl swinging silhouette! Thank you. This was challenging but fun.
I looked at the opening and used the frame and the texture from the textile and added a paper texture and a stitch. There was an actual party for a huge sink hole that occured in downtown New Orleans because it happened around May 5 for Cinco de Mayo! I used Rachels add on for the M3 monthly May 2020
I used a new release for the extra bonus Pocket Art Pint Sized I was inspired by the part of the board with the red/white and black
New Release Bonus Entry: I used Amazing Things Will Happen, MMA This was a wonderful challenge! I've never tried taking inspiration from textiles before; what a great idea. I was inspired by the black and white fabric with the red stitched X, and also by the stitching around the piece of cloth. I started out with red, and ended up with orange and purple! It just morphed - really a great exercise. Thanks so much!
I was inspired by the pieced look of your board with the B&W, red & blue, stitched X and other stitching.
WOW!! This one was a hard one, but I loved it. It made me really think about the elements I was using. I used HIH - which is May BYOC.
Here's mine, thanks for the challenge. Inspired by the red and black markings and the stitching. Bonus for May: Pocket Art Pintsized 1
Yea! I am pleasantly surprised by how many joined the challenge this month. Textile arts to digital art...thats a mixed media challenge for sure...yet, some found inspiration in the palette, some the mark making, some the botanicals and some made a layout about textiles!!! I absolutely love that during the creative process, your muse went in its own direction. Oftentimes, those are the very best layouts.
(New release bonus entry) This is my take. I was inspired of so much in the board, but the tree at the water, the stitching, the red X, flowers on a steam, the clouds over the house and the Pattern in the middle bottom photo. Great challenge!
My inspiration was the muted colors in the landscape (second from the bottom left), the stitching outlines around the left bottom.

Thanks for the challenge! I was inspired mainly by the two long grey pictures in the top corner, the darker blues/greys including the clouds behind the house and also by all of the vertical and horizontal lines. Here is my "reflect" page that came out of it...
