Hi there, and welcome to our final day of our Birthday Bash! What a week it has been! We hope you've been enjoying the celebration as much as we have! It was a total thrill to have so many new members added to our Spraground family. It was delightful to see so many Spragbabes explore and discover our new community, setting up groups that are designed to bring us even closer and to enrich our relationships even further. It was amazing to witness the overflow of creative juices and awesome talent that filled our Challenge Gallery. And of course, it was our huge pleasure to be able to share with you our birthday goodies and freebies! Cheers for your Challenge Layouts What awesome layouts we discovered, once more, hanging on the walls of our Challenge Gallery! And such interesting one-liners, too! You seriously rock! Here are just a few of the many amazing layouts we found: doris's one-liner was supported by the large image she used on her layout.
DustyTX used the challenge to scrap a layout about her four-legged sweetie:
BSE played with both the words and the image on her layout:
tori did a 2-page layout for the challenge:
and pjscraps hit a homerun with her one-liner on her layout!
A Friendly Reminder Brought to You!

Stay tuned to our homepage blog for more information, because I promise ya, this Album Class is something you would not, NOT, N-O-T want to miss! (>wink!<)Today's Spraground Tip Our amazing community keeps growing bigger, and it's a huge amazing place to be in because of you! Here's our latest Spraground tip, brought to you by our dearest Jessica! And you know she loves you because she's giving you two tips today! Did you know that you can connect what you write and post on your blog as well as your Twitter feed right into your Spraground profile? What does this mean? It means that anyone can click on your profile and read your latest blog posts (You can configure the number of blog posts that you want to show--I would suggest 5). And it's the same thing with your latest Tweets! The way to do this is to add the RSS feed application and the Twitter feed application to your profile. Jared and Molly have written some great instructions for locating, copying, and adding your blog's RSS feed to your profile! Just click HERE to go to our Community Help Section and read all about it. And for more information on what the heck RSS is (and other ways you can take advantage of it!), you can read my "RSS: What the Heck?" article by clicking right here. If you're on Twitter, then you're just a few clicks away from feeding your tweets through to your Spraground profile!Just log into the webside, click on "Community" and then click on the green"Applications" tab. When you get there, you'll see "My Twitter Updates." Click on the green plus-sign, then the Configuration button to provide your Twitter username and password... and that's all there is to it! Be sure to look for other Spraground tweeters and start following some new friends! Woohoo! Some Shop Goodies! We've featured our awesome new designers, Crystal Wilkerson and her Creativity by Crystal designs, and Orchard & Broome, the fab team of Candice Stringham and Sarah Champion. We also featured the super-awesome designs of our very own Design Diva, Jessica Sprague (yes, she, queen of our shop and the entire Spraground)! Today if you'll allow me, I'd like to join this illustrious club of featured artists and humbly show you a few of the stuff I've created for our shop as well: Here are a couple of my kits:
And here are a couple of my element packs:   Click here to go to my store. And here are the latest items from our dear Crystal!
Click here to go to Crystal's store. Don't forget to look for new items from your Spraground designers every week! The Last Birthday Challenge It's our last birthday challenge, and the 28th challenge for our June Create-A-Day Challenge Month! (For the last 2 days of our June Create-A-Day Challenge Month, look for the challenge information in their regular sticky spot in our General Forum). Are you ready? 1, 2, 3, 4....
There is this song I love by Plain White T's, and although the fact that it features Chicago (where we had our very first Spraguefest last year) may be a big part of the reason why I love it, if you listen to the words and the melody, I'm pretty sure you'll end up loving it too. If you click on the image above, you'll be able to view the video and listen to the song... I promise you, it will be worth your while! And you can play it while we do today's challenge, because guess what? Our challenge is based on this song! :D Here's how we'll play our 1-2-3-4 challenge today:
On the seventh day of our Birthday, the Spraground gave to me... We all love to receive party favors and goodies, don't we? Today's birthday freebie is a template created by our dear Molly using Jessica's scrapped layout as her inspiration for this lesson. Here's the original layout of Jessica:
And here's your birthday goodie from Molly!
Click on the image above to download this awesome freebie for the day! (And remember that you want to snag this before 10AM EST tomorrow morning!). (Sorry! Link to freebie is expired. ) And... that's about it for our birthday week, Spraground sweeties! We hope you had a marvelous time partying, and we hope to see you around our Spraground forums and galleries more often! (If you're new and just checking us out today, come register, create your first layout, and upload it to our galleries!) Have a wonderful, awesome final day of celebration! Remember, we've got one last day to enjoy all the cookies, cupcakes and soda drinks on our Spraground!
