Garden Box Full of Heart Flowers and a Butterfly

Coloring guide
In this sweet scene, five heart-shaped blossoms grow out of a wooden raised garden bed, and each one has a little sunburst of lines and petals at its center. Big leaves curl around the stems, and soil is drawn along the top of the crate. Above the flowers, a smiling butterfly with heart patterns on its wings flutters along, leaving a looping dotted trail. A watering can with a heart on its side and a dotted spout sits in the front corner, while small grass tufts and rounded bushes fill in behind. Large shapes and clear outlines make this free printable a good match for preschoolers and early elementary kids. Pink, red and purple would suit the heart petals, with bright greens on the leaves and sunny yellow in the flower centers. Blue or teal could work nicely for the watering can. This fits right in with our Hearts coloring pages — see also Wedding and Baby.
