Forehead Diamond, Lightning Bolts and Roses on a Sugar Skull

Coloring guide
A front-facing sugar skull fills the page, with a large diamond across the forehead and a small star and a rose on each side of it. Two lightning bolts sit just below the roses, pointing toward the center. The eye sockets are big ovals, each with a smaller diamond inside and a ring of rounded petals around the edge. A heart sits between the eyes, and the nose is a heart shape too. Dashed lines curve across the cheeks, and the jaw has a small triangle on each side, a tiny cross, dots, and a row of outlined teeth. Swirl patterns decorate the bottom corners. For a coloring idea, try giving each petal ring a different color and keep the diamonds in cool shades, so the eyes pop. The petals and the wide open spaces are easy for younger kids, and the free printable also works well for a Día de Muertos art lesson on symmetry, since both sides of the face mirror each other.
