If turned up at the start of the game, the first player becomes “skipped” and loses his/her turn. If you want to craft something, you first will need enough resources to do so, and this can be seen by looking at the craft cards.

So, for example, a wild two-card can be used as two of any resource. However, the resources can’t be split, so they cannot be used as one stone and one diamond.
