It's Thursday, welcome to another Ways to Use It Challenge. Carla here as your hostess. If you haven't noticed already, I like using strange holidays as inspiration. This month is Spunky Old Broads month!! After I stopped laughing, I decided it's time to celebrate older women in all our/their sass, grace and glory! I'm sure you can find inspiration from the sassy, grace-filled, glorious older women around you Did someone special inspire your card? We'd love to hear about them.
"Spunky old broads are positive, fun, butt-kicking mature women over the age of 50 who refuse to sit back quietly and get old. They want excitement! They want a regret-free life! They want form fitting aprons! They want calcium supplements!"
Old girls just wanna have fun too, so here's a list of ways to celebrate.
Break out the Harley
Go sky diving with ten friends
Try mud wrestling
Make a card celebrating a Spunky Old Broad you know, maybe yourself

The gallery is filling with fantastic cards with great sentiments. I'm having a blast viewing your cards and getting a workout from laughing. Some of my best times are with my fellow Spunky Old Broads and I've seen quite a few cards that could be any of our groups.
I haven't been able to participate regularly in the challenges but this one really caught my eye. What a great idea and today's cards are all amazing. I will try to create after work and post it to add to the fun. Thanks for a great challenge, Carla. When I am retired I will be here with bells on every day!
Just got back from a short trip to the Seattle area- got this cute embossed heart paper- and added a vintage lady all dressed up- and an older guy doing the happy dance! Here's Little Red Dress

Carla this has been such a fun challenge! I am loving all the cards in the gallery...Do you think I could fav the entire gallery and include it in this week favorites list or would they frown on that? Just so everyone knows...they're all brilliant!!

Couldn't resist breaking out this stamp and making this card- with lively stripes for a background, and dry embossed swirls- there's even a heart hiding in the background! These girls are having FUN! Here's Party Gals
