Blogger Deleted my Blog

Hi All, on the 30th oct at about 11.45am I was busy visiting blogs leaving some comments, when all of a sudden, I couldn't leave a comment, and it said my blog had been deleted. and it had! I was in panic, how could this happen, I was just leaving comments. Blogger had deleted my blog as spam. I tried to get it sorted out, I was completely gutted, all my work gone. Finally after hours  blogger asked me for a mobile phone number, which I gave them and they sent me a code, which I had to type into a box , and then up came my details, then my dashboard and thank God my blog intact.  It seems blogger can randomly select any blog and delete it as spam.
If this does happen to you, dont panic , get on to them, it took all day but I got mine back.
I Just thought I would let you all know, Just incase the same thing happens to you.

GDT Dudetime Doodles. Think Pink

Good Morning All, I hope you are All well, I am a Guest Design team member over at the wonderful Dudetime Doodles this month which is an honour. Normally on the first week of the month they have a sketch challenge, but not this time, Because this is Breast Cancer awareness month, we have a Think Pink Challenge. I know some of you will laugh as you know its far from my favorite colour. But its important that we support all of those who are fighting this right now and remember those that have lost the fight. I would just like to add this little known fact, that 300 men each month in the uk are diagnoised with breat cancer, so its not only a girl thing.
For my card ive used Zeke Zorro I coloured him with promarkers, backing paper and ribbon from stash.
I do hope you will join in with us this week. Lets see you Thinking pink .
I would like to enter my card in to the following challenges.
