I didn't find this as tough a challenge as some seem to have done, my first thought on seeing the topic for this week was ORIGAMI! a hobby of mine from when I was a child. Although I hadn't done any paper folding for about 40 years I quickly found some simple instructions online and produced the flower in less than 5 minutes. I used my sons hand in an effort to show some sense of scale and took four exposures, the best of which is this weeks submission. I hope you like it. Regards Andy.

just white paper
A ream of A4 white paper, ripped open and an 8pt HMM printed on the folded sheet. What more can I say, except in the lead up to this assignment I made 2 water bombs, a heart, 3 paper aeroplanes and a rather sick looking Swan. I went for the ream of paper instead
Really struggled for time and inspiration on this weeks prompt but here are the instructions for my new cooker hood printed on some paper. Sorry

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings
Uh huh, that's right
Darling, you're the one I want, and
I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this
Uh huh, that's right
Darling, you're the one I want, and
Paper rings and picture frames and dirty dreams
Oh, you're the one I want

This was taken at the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Parks near the Niagara Falls in Canada. It is also known as large tree nymph. A member of the Danaidae family, the Rice Paper is related to the well known Monarch. Numerous names and folklore tales were inspired by the graceful ghost-like flight of this butterfly throughout the canopy of coastal mangrove swamps in South East Asia. (Sourced from the booklet from the Butterfly Conservatory).
It does exhibit a texture like rice paper when backlit !!
Vespula vulgaris is a eusocial vespid that builds its tan paper nest in or on a structure capable of supporting it. A founding queen searches for a hollow tree, wall cavity, rock crevice, or even a mammal-made hole to build a nest. One colony cycle lasts for about 6–11 months and each colony cycle produces around 3000–8000 larvae.
The extraordinary adaptation skills of V. vulgaris enable it to live in a wide range of habitats, from very humid areas to artificial environments such as gardens and human structures. This species, along with other wasp species such as V. germanica, has impacted the ecosystem, especially those in New Zealand and Australia, where they were imported by humans, and frequently cause damage to fruit crops and endanger humans.
Adult workers of V. vulgaris measure about 12–17 mm (0.5–0.7 in) from head to tip of abdomen, and weigh 84.1 ± 19.0 mg, whereas the queen is about 20 mm (0.8 in) long. It has aposematic colors of black and yellow; yellow pronotal bands which are almost parallel to each other and black dots and rings on its abdomen. The queens and workers appear very similar to Vespula germanica, except when they are seen head on, as the V. vulgaris face lacks the three black dots of V. germanica. Instead, each has only one black mark on its clypeus, which is usually anchor or dagger-shaped. This applies to queens and workers only. In addition, identification of this species may be difficult because the black mark on its clypeus can sometimes appear broken, making it again look similar to V. germanica. It is prudent to use multiple identifying characteristics and if in any doubt to consult experts.
Still more difficult to distinguish between species are the males. Almost undetectable with the naked eye, the only confident identification of V. vulgaris males is to seek the distinct aedeagus tip shapes and lateral processes of their genitalia.

I've been saving all sorts of packing paper with the hope of coming up with an idea to use it all.
I was trying to make an 8 point Natalia Guzowska's Stella Errare but couldn't make the center part work, so I did the asymmetrical squash from the other side. I think this has been done by Juan López Figueroa in several of his Stars of Eden.

I like this little green bird very much,
liz : www.flickr.com/photos/eshu/ send one of the 1000 she made to me and I will send her a print.
