Default Recommendations for a detailed BUGS stamp set

I found some good butterflies and bees but Im looking for spiders, beetles, and other kinds of creepy crawlies. Not cute ones but realistic looking with details and things I can color in or leave black and white.

Anyone have any ideas or if you have something like this for sale.

thanks Robin

Lost Coast Designs has a couple of sets — both are on this page (More Bugz is near the top, scroll down past the shadow frames for the Bugz set). LCD make red rubber stamps and there’s a choice of bare rubber or cling mount. I don’t have either of those sets but I do have several other LCD stamps and they’re good quality.

Viva Las Vegas has lots of insect stamps and they offer multiple mounting options/prices: Insects
I have some of their bare rubber and they are good quality. Fun store, too, if you're ever in Las Vegas and want an option to the casinos...

Tim Holtz has other bug sets, too, primarily in the Halloween collections.

For spiders definitely look under Halloween categories with many mfgs/sites.

if you go with a gen supplier like scrapbook.com, 123 stitch, ellen hutson, top flight for internationals etc you will see a cross section of companies. Also look on ebay for older designs as well. Scrapbook.com would also have a lot of DP. There are going to be stencils and embossing folders too...always also ephemera including flock stickers or rhinestone spiders...

My one piece of advice-look around quite a lot and make a list. There is a ton out there. Avoid my newbie mistake of just grabbing what I saw immediately and then seeing something you like better later.
