#500th Challenge Post

 Hello and welcome to all the hoppers,

I am so happy to be hosting our very special challenge post here at Fab'n'Funky Challenges. I am also happy to be your first pot-of-call.

So I shall do my best not to give anything away, you have to follow the clues 😃

I believe Kraft is a very understated colour when it comes to card making, which is a shame.

Kraft always reminds me of freshly baked cookies and if you stick it with a colour like yellow........aah warm cookies on a sunny winters day. (oh dear, now I'm going to have to bake some cookies)


As you may have already guess I use this stamp a lot. I think out of all of my LOTV stamps he is my absolute favourite.
 I used  sandstone, tan & cinnamon ProMarkers for the bear and lemon, sunflower & gold for the flower, the stem & leaves are pear green with a hint of forest green. The flower were created using a punch from S.U. and their centres are tiny wooden gems.

I hope you have enjoyed my post, don't forget to leave a comment before you take your next hop.

Your next clue word is 


Enjoy your hop

Hugs & Happy thoughts

Buffy xx

    I love kraft in cardmaking and you've used it beautifully. I don't know why I've never thought of combining it with yellow. It makes me think of lemon drizzle cake!

    This is a beautiful card, such a cute bear and the combination of kraft and yellow is also super... a nice detail, the strings are nicely stretched.

    Aargh, now you've got ME thinking "coooookkkkiees" :-)
    I think you're right, Kraft IS underrated, I'm definitley going to drag some out now. Your card is lovely, how could it not be with that darling bear? Donna
