Garden Kitten Reaching Up for a Butterfly
Coloring guide
A happy striped kitten is up on its hind legs in tall grass, one front paw lifted toward a butterfly fluttering overhead. It has big sparkling eyes, an open smiling mouth, long whiskers, fluffy cheek fur and a curled, striped tail. Tulips, daisies and blades of grass surround it, rounded bushes sit behind, and a smiling sun with rays shines in the upper corner. The butterfly's patterned wings and curly antennae add small details that suit steady crayons or colored pencils. Orange stripes on the kitten, pink and red tulips, and a blue and purple butterfly will pop against the green grass. It's a free page to print for a classroom project or a weekend craft.

- 3Fill the grass, bushes and stems with grass green, and add forest green to the darkest blades near the bottom and the left side for depth.
- 4Color the two large tulips and the small tulip bud in rose pink, then fill the inner ear and the butterfly's inner wings with light pink.
