Big Blossom, big bug photo ...
What happened to the Big Blossom photo that had the roach embedded in the foam? I wanted my demo and stamping friends to see that. Did it get deleted?

Probably because it wasn't a stamped image.

I don't know if it was a big bug, or a small piece of stamp/foam, but it was yucky!

Entomology!!! - CSI
Bugs are great !- There are many more bugs than people!! Doesn't anyone watch CSI? Bugs are soooo useful. Besides we are supposed to eat lower on the food chain. Keep us posted on the unveiling of this BUG.

I got NOTHING done today, because.....I bet you all can guess why...I was either stamping(didn't get much of that done due to a tv beng right there beside me) or sitting here on SCS!!!! My boyfriend came home from work and asked where his dinner was and I told him I would fix it tomorrow night.:mrgreen:

Too bad he can't have a card for dinner, huh? LOL! You should check out the
"dinner challenge thread" There are some great recipes for the croc pot on there- you just throw the ingredients in, turn it on- and you have dinner in hours! While it's cooking you can stamp!

Yeah I have tried that before too. I participate in way too many swaps to not have any recipes. It's just getting my butt away from all the stamps and computer. I am going to start going to the gym tomorrow and that is really going to cut into the stamping time, never the less the stamp budget!! AAAHHGGG. But I guess since my butt has gotten wider from sitting on the puter and sitting stamping, it will be ok. Oh well what else is there to do!! YEAH Right.

Can you imagine peeling back the paper off the foam in order to mount the stamp and finding a big ugly dead bug there? That would freak me out for a long long time! Yuck. I HATE bugs but it is that human nature curiousity thing ... I HAD to have a closer look at it ...

I thought it was gross when I saw it this morning, and now I don't know why I looked the second time.
I don't know if I'll be able to mount my Big Blossom when it comes!

A bug in a flower stamp set?
That is so gross, but it would be funny to give it to someone as a gift.
I wonder if he was just trying to smell the Big Blossom?
Does it make a squishing sound every time you use it?
Did you try using the bug as the stamp?
Thanks for sharing.

Now, I am going to have to peel the back off the stamps before I cut them. I do not want to think of what I would do if I cut into that, the trauma mite make me never stamp again.
OK, maybe not stamp again but surely look before I cut into them.
