Default Attic door/access insulation

I've read that a large amount of heat can be lost simply through the attic access in most houses. They usually aren't sealed or insulated which leaves a semi closed, but gaping hole insulation wise.

After I am done with insulating the attic I am planning on building something around the access to insulate it. I also picked up some weather stripping material to go on the door itself to seal it from air leaks.

What have you guys done? Pictures would be great as I'm still comming up with ideas on insulating the access.
