I'm in the northern hemisphere and chose cool colors.
The antennae on the center part and the leafy parts are over piped Isomalt transfers, but I made them too thin, and my clumsy fingers broke them a few times. Had to "glue" them back on with Isomalt and reinforce them on the back.
The idea to use flowers as the four wing parts and overall design are my own, but the leafy parts were inspired by different butterfly art works on the Internet as is the idea to make the butterfly body in the form of a female...
WOW! Sonja, what incredible detailed work and so creative I absolutely love your lady butterfly. Your attention to detail is always second to none and this is no exception. Your precise piping draws your eye in to see every single detail, no matter how small. The colors are gorgeous, too! Are all the swirly elements of the wings part of the cookie/s? Isomalt transfers? How you were able to create this masterpiece using isomalt as much as you did? I LOVE this design ♥♥♥

Thank you so much, Carol ❤️! The antennae and all swirly parts are Isomalt transfers and as such part of the cookies. I first outlined the transfers with royal icing, then filled them in drop by drop with Isomalt, and finally over piped them. Thanks again, Carol !
OMG, Sonja! This is gorgeous!!! Your work is such an inspiration! Fantastic!!!
