These are phenomenal!  The jaw-dropping artistry aside, you did an incredible job of utilizing all of the butterfly shape is each of your three cookies.  I especially like the swan scene and how the curves fit the shape so elegantly.  An amazing entry! 

I sure appreciate your wonderful comment, Christine! Thank you so much! This was an awesome challenge, and I somehow wish it could have been extended... it was almost addictive to think of new thing to fit into this shape ! And it brought out stuff in me I didn't know existed ! But off to new things! Thanks so much for all the time you invest to challenge us this way <3!!!

Dear Sonia,                                            I'm not crazy about spiders, but since you wanted to do one, this is a standout.  The swans are exquisite and the baby carriage is wonderful!  

Thank you so much, dear Pip ❤️❤️❤️!!! I'm not too crazy about contact with spiders, either, as I have seen what their bite can do to human flesh (a family member got bitten by a brown recluse in Florida) , but I was always told to respect them, since they keep us from being inundated with insects. And this Gooty shows that nature can make even spiders beautiful . Thanks again, Pip!

How do you do it, Sonja, from where you have so many ideas ????  Magnificent !!!!

Thank you so much, dear Ewa ❤️❤️❤️! I believe that we all draw our creativity from the same place, the source for everything. I can access this place best when resting my body, not feeling it anymore. This seems to help relax my mind, so inspiration can flow. Thanks again!

Such spectacular work, Sonja! Thank you for explaining how you made the spider. Normally, I would say that it's too beautiful to eat, but in this case, I don't think "beautiful" is the word that comes to mind when one thinks about consuming this delicate pastry! Very impressive work!!!

Thanks a bunch, Christine ❤️❤️❤️! Haha, yes, you're right, one would certainly associate a few other qualities with the consumption of this creature ! Thanks again!

When I saw the photo I wondered who made these beautiful cookies.  No wonder that's you, Sonja.   I love this set a lot.  

I am glad that you show us extra photos of Gooty Sapphire Tarantula, it is really beautiful!    Amazing. 

Thank you, Ryoko ❤️! The Goofy is much more spectacular in photographs. I wasn't able to replicate its true color and splendor. Nature is amazing!!!

I just googled it!  Oh, that's really beautiful at the same time very spooky.
