EDITED TO ADD: I go by my first name, not my middle. My first name is Amanda. *smiles* Also, I am going to keep this post bumped up to the top so people can find it, but I will be posting more, so please take a moment to scroll down to find the latest stuff -- this will stay up until 50K is reached.
***************************
I am so amazed that so many people have been interested in little old stamping me. Okay, well, not me actually, probably mostly my work, but either way, I'm SUPER FLATTERED! I appreciate all the comments you leave me. They really do validate me and make me feel like I should keep on going with this blog. You all ROCK!
So, I have decided to do a small giveaway to show my appreciation to you. I will have two separate contests. Both of these contests will win you blog candy (yummy embellishments, and other such fun stuff).
The first one is to guess my middle name. You can post your guess as a comment to this post and then I will do a drawing of everyone who has guessed right. It will be fun to read your guesses I am sure. You may guess as many times as you like.
The second contest is just a drawing from my current subscribers. On the day I reach 50K posts, I will do a drawing from those already subscribed, so if you are not, this is your fair warning to do so. Thank you for your continued support and don't forget to check back and see what's new and who the winners are. *hugs*
Oh, and don't forget to check out the links on the side. I have updated them and added some fun new sites that I like, as well as some totally kick butt blogs that you will love!

Hi Amanda - seeing as how I know you're a Grey's Anatomy fan (loved the last GA post), I'd love to guess that your middle name is Iphigenia, but I'm actually going to guess Marie. Fingers crossed! :)
Well I am going to take a stab at this too and guess that your middle name is Lynn. Hope I hit the nail on the head!!
I am going to guess Marie also. That sounds good with Amanda.
Cheryl S.
I think your middle name is Renee`. If it's not then I think you should change it so I can win! LOL
I'm guessing that your middle name is Leigh. Not sure why. I just think that it is. :)
Isn't your middle name Amanda and your first name something else? LOL. Can I guess again later? LOL
I'm gonna guess Dawn cause that is my SIL's name and my other guess is Lynn cause that is my middle name and was very popular at that time :lol:
My middle name, actually what I go by, is pretty common among women about our age. I guess Marie! :)
Is it Marie? I wanted to name my son (before I knew he was a boy) Amanda Marie!
I'm guessing Jean (just came to me, and I try to go with my first instinct). Don't be surprised that so many people come to your blog...you're a fabulous crafter...original and very inspiring. LOVE your blog.
I'm going with Jane....
I will guess Elizabeth, cuz it goes so good together.
My first thought was Marie, since nothing else is really jumping at me I guess I'll stick with it! :D
Hey, am I listed as a subscriber? I didn't join by clicking, but rather added you to my list of RSS feeds. I don't want to miss out on any blog candy!!
I love your art, you're da bomb!
I don't know why, but I was thinking your middle name is Kristen, or maybe Kathleen, or maybe Kay...see a pattern here?
Beth
My guess is "Sue"
I'm already a subscriber - I really enjoy your blog and your recipes.
have a great day!!
Okay Amanda, I believe your name to be Amanda Ray. I have another choice too, but I will go with this one.
Have a great week.
Shelley
Just wanted to say that you all who have more than one guess can guess more than once . . . *grins*
I guess Joy.
-Alissa
I also guess Lynn
-Alissa
ELizabeth
BJacobs
I'm saying Joy because that is my middle name plus I know an Amanda Joy.
I'm gonna guess Lynn. It just seems to go together Amanda Lynn.
I have a second guess too! Could it be Amanda Jean?
Did you know a mandolin is an instrument, get it Amanda Lynn, a mandolin . . . lol, I crack myself up . . .
Love getting all those instant email updates when you subscribe! Look forward to receiving yours every day!
I don't know about the middle name - Lynn would have been my guess or Lee. (Or it could be an family name that's been passed down). Looking forward to your answer!
I guess Lynn as well.
Emily A
Someone has already guessed the two I was thinking but I will say them anyway Lynn(thats mine, so it has to be it!:)) or Jean. Love your site, I am a Arizonian also. My husband wants me to make you Enchiladas again MMMM DELISH!
Well I am going to go with the middle name of Jo. That is my middle name and its not popular but it is a great middle name.
Love your blog I come to it daily. I get your updates so that everytime you add something I get an email saying check it out.
For some reason, I'm thinking it starts with a "K". I am gonna guess Karen . . . ;)
I'm thinking Amanda Louise. Sounds good to me....
~~Rita~~
I should know this...I'm gonna say Lee.
Hmmm......
Marie
Elizabeth
Leigh
You're blog is awesome!
~Jennifer Taylor
I was guessing Renee or Jean. Maybe Sue.
Part of me thinks that you go by your middle name...Amanda. Otherwise my guess would be Erin or Emily.
Heather
I'm going to guess your middle name is Sue. :)
I'm going to say michelle...or michele...whichever way you prefer to spell it...even though the only "real" way to spell it is with one 'l'.....of course I"m biased since my name is michele....spelled the right way :)
I'm going with Jane, though it's already been mentioned.
I'm gonna say Lee. I waited in line at Zayres store (anyone remember Zayres?) for 3 hours with my big sis when Cabbage Patch dolls came out and Mine came with a crazy name so I renamed her Amanda Lee.
Thanks for updatin your blog every day! I love to get the little email that says there is something good to read! lol
Ok - Here are three wild guesses:
Lynn, katharine, Diane. Thanks for sharing the blog candy!
Just thought of some more. How about Grace, Rose, Lucille or Margaret?
I think Amanda Lynn sounds pretty. So my guess is Lynn!
I am going with Lynn.
I'm going to guess three, Dawn, Grace, and Rose.
Well, my guess looks like a popular one!! I think it is Lynn because it sounds really good with Amanda!!
I am joining the majority and going with Lynn or how about Lou or then there is Marie.
Lynda
I'm gonna say Leigh (or Lee depending on how it is spelled). I think that's what it is. Amanda Leigh, sounds pretty to me!
I have to agree with some of the others and say your middle name is Lynn or Lynne, but then it could be Marie or Jane.
Thanks for another chance at Blog candy. I am already a subscriber too.
Sue - Amanda Sue! Isn't there a country and western song with the name Amanda Sue? If there isn't, there shoul be.
Jo - Amanda Jo, I think I have a niece named Amanda Jo. Am I a terrible aunt?
Oh, I'm glad you said we could guess more than once because if it's not Marie, I think it's Elizabeth. Marie is still my first guess :)
I'm guessing Elizabeth because mine is Elizabeth...LOL
Amanda Elizabeth...hmmm, maybe Amanda Marie. Or maybe Amanda Paige??
Oh well, we'll find out soon! :o)
Love your blog too!! From a fellow Arizonan!
My first thought was Lynn, fits with Amanda.
Is it Michelle or Nicole?
I guessed "Kay" but then it only looked like I said O-Kay.
I think you look like an Amanda Kay. :)
Ok, my guess is Rae' ??? Hope it's right... :)
