Masculine Love Theme With Sweet Bug!

Welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create With Stamping Friends. This week, our theme is Masculine Valentines and I used the Sweet Bugs Bundle on my card along with the Cute As A Bug Designer Paper:

The layer with the tree stump is actually a sheet from the designer paper that I just cut along the end lines and used for one of the layers. And what about that cute bug?
