I think the Lockhart Butterflies are some of the most versatile stamps I have, that and I adore butterflies... I used the Star Butterfly for today's projects: a birthday card and a needed anniversary card.
These papers are from October Afternoon's latest release called Modern Homemaker. Black brads and red crinkle ribbon were added to a Thistle card base.
Two paper artists inspired the above card: Mishie Wooderson and Melissa Phillips. I thank Mish every day for introducing me to doilies - whenever I use one I think of her! Zva bling, and October Afternoon Good Cheer (sheet music) and more Modern Homemaker, yummy white 1-1/2" silk ribbon.
Papertrey sentiment; Memory Box Presto Flourish.
Today was another 5K - that is me about to cross the finish this morning. It was 45 degrees outside, and I had a PR (personal record) of 27:40 something - official times should be out later on today or tomorrow. Second in my age group and #22 across the finish line. This was the Girls on the Run 5K - I was an assistant coach for third to fifth graders this year at my kids' school. Being an asssistant coach was a very rewarding experience for me - the girls were incredible and amazing, as were the head coach and other fellow assistant coaches. I look forward to volunteering and experiencing the amazing time again next year!
Next 5K is this Thursday - Thanksgiving morning - The Turkey Trot through downtown Flemington! 
Best wishes for an incredible weekend - Cindy
