Simon Says Stamp Challenge - GDT spotlight - and ABC challenge

I hope you've got a cuppa ... this is a bit of a long post!!

It's my third week guest designing for the fantastic Simon Says Stamp Challenge ... and we have a fab challenge for you ... Anything Goes.

And Happy Birthday to my lovely blogging friend Heather :) xx  Hope you are having a fantastic day hun xx

As usual the lovely Heidi will be giving one lucky entrant a $50 spree to her Simon Says Stamp store. New goodies are arriving everyday in the store so there is no better time to take part and be in with a chance of winning our fantastic prize !!!

 I used Ballerina Tilda and coloured her in using my promarkers.  The background is distressed using vintage photo and walnut stain distress inks, and then stickled using diamond stickles.  The image and papers are distressed using my TH distressing tool, and the dp is Basic Grey Eva.  I added flat back pearls, flowers and tea stained lace from my stash.

It fits the following challenges:

And finally as it is Wednesday so its time for WOYWW... here was my desk at 6am (please don't ask why I was up crafting at 6am!!).

Here is another of the soon to be released Sugar Nellie Mangas (I got them at the SEC at the weekend).  I am going ot have another go at colouring her hair yellow ... wish me luck!!!  The dp I am planning on using is BG Origins.  Two things are missong from my desk this morning ... My i-pad (a small child took it back to bed to play Barbie Fashionista on it ... I have nothing to call my own LOL!!!) and the Miffster who is curled up with previously mentioned small child!

I have a busy day ahead ... but am hoping to get round some of your desks today ... fingers crossed children will behave and sleep when they should LOL!!
