Congratulations to Amanda of chrysanthemumveil Winner of the "Lord of the Rings" Popular Vote

Congratulations go to Amanda of chrysanthemumveil and her Nightingale Necklace.  Amanda received 108 (17%) of the popular vote.
This month we also had an internal vote with the members of Etsy Beadweavers on our new forum Etsybeadweavers Freeforums.  The winner of the internal member vote is Marsha of HauteIceBeadwork and her "Ash and Amber" The Balrog. 
On Saturday/Sunday Blogger had some problems and we saw an influx of voting that was very odd (several enteries votes were increased by over 100 votes in one day).  Because of widespread blogger isses over the weekend (our blog was one of thousands affected) when the polling closed it revereted back to the Friday count.  The problems we experience were out our control and so any ligitimate votes we received on weekend are not included in  this tally.  The winning order of the voting was not affected but some of us lost votes (mine included - AngelqueCreations).

So moving on I would like to announce the Popular Vote runner's up of the May Challenge "Lord of the Rings"
2nd Place #5. The Dead Marshes - 4uidzne with 100 votes (15%)
