If you do a search on "OSW" or "One+Sheet+Wonder" in the gallery you'll see both project samples and patterns.
You can really use any size paper you want, on up to 12x12 scrap paper. It's all what you'd be comfortable with. If you like, you can start with just a quarter sheet of cardstock just to get the hang of it....sometimes a big sheet of blank paper can be intimidating.
I generally use 3 sizes of stamps...small, medium and large. Start with the large size stamp and do the whole sheet, leaving room for the medium sized images. Then do the small to fill in. Try to keep the images going in all directions; you may not use all the pieces in the same orientation you stamped them.
As for colors, lots of times I'll use a lighter and a darker shade of a color, say a brown tone, then use a complementary color for the third. That is completely a matter of personal taste.
Just play...have fun!
