My model is a sprout that grows up when you pull on it, inspired by those germination time lapse videos.

When you look at a plant it's hard to tell it's growing or moving at all, but when you look away and come back, it's rising up before you even know it.

You can watch the beginning or the end of the youtube tutorial linked there to see how it works.

I must admit that I struggled more with this challenge than I thought I would. I initially wished to design gumtree leaves and either the gumtree blossom or nut. The leaves I managed just fine, however the blossom or seedpod just refused to form. The paper twisted away from me forming cubism art, boats, snow flake thing and a flying bat mouth agape. My last attempt which was just to make any modular ball and call it a gumnut turned into a snapdragon flower.

Snapdragons are a childhood favourite of mine. I was fascinated by them and loved the multitude of colours.

Excellent models, both of you! This is a tough one! I want to know-Grace, is the stem made of paper, also how many sheets(If not one)?

The stem is made of one sheet of paper rolled diagonally and held in place with bluetac.
