Lori had always liked to paint, the mess she hadn't liked much, but she was a witch, so that helped wonders. Paintbrush in hand, she dipped it into the white paint, to make the banner-sized paper fully white; because fully white was cool.

After that, she pulled out a pencil from her bag, and set about drawing a badger face onto her banner on the left hand side. Badgers were pretty. Hehe. And they weren't rodents, no matter what Oliver-Bloody-Glitter-Poodle-Greenwood said. Once she had finished drawing her badger, she started to draw a biiiiig butterbeer. Heh! Butterbeer Badger! Woot!

Once she had finished her drawing that side, she set about drawing the Hufflepuff Crest on the right hand side. She was glad she had it pinned onto her robes, so she could look at that for reference, it was easier than drawing from memory. That way she always forgot something. Siiigh.

She started to paint her badger using another white paint[this one had a little bit of yellow in it, so you could differentiate], then black and brown to fill in the remaining bits of the face, the butterbeer glass and then the outline of Butterbeer!Badger.

Lori smiled appreciatively over her work, and then glanced over at Goldie quickly, and chewed at her lip before she glanced towards Brody. Gosh. Talk about falling apart. She was ready to just walk out of the class, without turning in her work. Then she could sit and be depressed some more, and try and catch Goldie to talk to her.

It took her about another ten minutes to paint in the Crest, but she was working with fiddly bits of detail on it, so it took twenty minutes in total for that to be perfectly finished.

Now, onto that text! WOOT! It was obviously going to be for the Hufflepuff Quidditch Team, because they were all so cute, and Lori loved watching them play. Nothing to do with the fact she WAS a Hufflepuff, and she wanted them to win

'Hufflepuff for the cup!' was yellow, and as was the cheer for Miranda at the bottom! WOO!
Then inbetween her text and the pictures, she decided instead of putting her name SMALL, it was going to be BIG! And pretty, and black, glittery and pink! WOOOT! Haha!

Tapping the Hufflepuff reference and then the Miranda one right after, with her wand, Lori did one full circle to the right and then the left and spoke "Colorus Fulgeo Yellow to Black!" And there was her flashing text there!

While the black paint of her writing had been drying, Lori had sprinked some pink glitter on her name and the heart. Because it was pretty.

Then she tapped the black paint, and again did one circle to the right, and another to the left. "Colours Fulgeo, Black to Pink!" WAHOOOOHA!

SPOILER!!: Banner -- lets pretend its flashing the colours I said, and there's glitter on the black. Ha!
Paragraph included aswell

I also painted a badger face, and that is because the animal on our crest is a badger, like the Slytherins have a snake, Ravenclaw an eagle and Gryffindor a lion. In my badgers hand there is a butterbeer, I painted this because butterbeer is yummy. And because when you celebrate something I think of butterbeer, so I give you... the Butterbeer!Badger. My banner has a theme of Yellow and Black, and also pink and glitter, because the former pair are the Hufflepuff colours, and the latter pair contains one of my favourite colours. I used glitter on it, because when the sun hits the glitter it will sparkle more, and then my banner would be noticed more. And I like to be noticed.
