I scrap-lifted this card from an old issue (Dec. 2001) of Rubber Stamper magazine. It's called "Autumn Patchwork" and was just perfect for this week's theme.

Haven't done mine yet this week; I'm trying to figure just how I can get that one annoying mosquito in my scrap room to stay still on the card. :angry42:

I don't mind insects at all but in keeping with my personal take on these cards, here is my very favorite bug. I downloaded this pictue when I was home last week. It's from an advertising company whose info I can't find right at the moment. It's probably lying by the computer at home! I found it on google images. Beetle description is from an old book found in the attic here at Mom's house. Stamps in background from Retro-farout, groovy, cool-you can't see them very well so let's just call them subtle.
