I'll admit it, of all the 150+ critters to choose from at CCC, these are not my favourites. But then, we have customers who are rascally boys, practical jokesters, science teachers, and budding entomologists who think they're the best thing ever!

This multi-legged collection was the creepy highlight of a Halloween wedding too (although I'm trying VERY hard to avoid thinking of that particular wedding cake!).
Sure, I'll always be drawn to the beautiful and colourful butterflies and dragonflies in the collection, but these realistic crawlers are made and hand-cut with the same care and attention, and of course they have their place. Just don't make it my place, okay? :-)

In nature we find some of the most intense and vibrant colours, exotic shapes that dazzle the eye, and extraordinary adaptation to habitat. In many of our CCC butterflies and dragonflies, you can see these wonders of nature in all their variety, and they're favourites with teachers, brides, and anyone who wants to include some of their charm and beauty in decor, scrapbooking, crafts and so many other uses.

But sometimes what's needed just can't be found in nature. That's where fantasy designs can be perfect for your needs. Some examples:

• Heart-themed red butterflies for Valentine's Day or to embellish a scrapbook page about a romantic event.
• Rainbow-colour ladybugs, just for fun, or to make a subtle statement.
• Flower-lovers' butterflies with roses on their wings.
• Patriotic "Stars and Stripes" butterflies, for our American friends' July 4, or welcome-home celebrations for returning service personnel.
